About this home
There are homes that impress, & then homes that leave a permanent mark. Set in the prestigious Chestatee community, 494 River Overlook is a trophy-caliber Lake Lanier estate where bold architecture, panoramic water & mountain views, & world-class amenities converge in one unforgettable offering. Perfectly positioned on over an acre w/additional 0.59-acre available lot for added privacy, this extraordinary residence delivers a lifestyle few properties can rival—& a compelling opportunity to step into immediate equity, as the home is priced below recent appraisal. From the moment you arrive at the circular drive with its centerpiece fountain, the tone is set for something exceptional.
Inside, the main residence unfolds w/soaring ceilings, skylit living spaces, & a striking glass rear façade capturing breathtaking lake & North Georgia mountain views from nearly every room. Marvin lake-rated windows & doors, glass balcony railings, designer lighting, integrated smart home technology, & seamless indoor-outdoor flow create an atmosphere both modern & warmly livable. The gourmet kitchen is a showpiece, appointed w/custom cabinetry, premium appliances, double pantries, honed black granite, & a stunning leathered dolomite island. Nearby, fireside gathering spaces & expansive entertaining areas make everyday living feel like a private resort.
The owner’s suite is a retreat of rare indulgence, featuring a fireplace wrapped in smoked mirrored glass tile, oversized custom closets, heated porcelain floors, jetted soaking tub, dual water closets, & dramatic spa bath for escape. Throughout the home, generously scaled bedroom suites, marble & porcelain baths, elevator access, & finely curated finishes reflect a level of luxury & intentionality that is increasingly difficult to find.
Its extraordinary lifestyle amenities set it apart. Designed for entertaining on a grand scale, the lower levels reveal a regulation-size two-lane bowling alley, full bar, home theater w/stadium seating, commercial-grade fitness center, massage room, steam shower, & sauna-ready space—all within the privacy of your own home. This is not simply a residence; it's a fully realized leisure destination.
Beyond the main home, a substantial two-story 3,000+ sq. ft. guesthouse residence offers remarkable flexibility for multi-generational living, extended guests, live-in support, or an elevated private retreat. With 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 2 half baths, finished upper-level living, & lower level plumbed for future kitchen, the guest house functions beautifully as a standalone experience while mirroring the quality & design of the main residence.
Outside, the estate transforms into a true waterfront resort. The spectacular 40-foot heated PebbleTec pool is finished w/marble coping, pearled glass tile, color-changing LED lighting, spa with cascading waterfall, slide, & grotto—delivering the ambiance of a five-star retreat. An outdoor kitchen, manicured grounds, irrigation system, limestone steps, & wooded access path to the lake complete the experience. Just three doors down, a covered boat slip w/lift & 2 jet ski slips offer effortless Lake Lanier access.
And while the home itself is exceptional, the lifestyle extends beyond its entrance. Chestatee delivers an amenity-rich experience as impressive as the residence itself, w/award-winning 18-hole golf course, multiple access points to Lake Lanier, breathtaking mountain views, putting green, driving range, private marinas, & clubhouse w/dining just moments away by golf cart. Residents also enjoy a Jr. Olympic pool w/splash pad & an extensive trail system winding through a picturesque wooded setting along the lake.
For the buyer who expects more than square footage—the buyer seeking presence, privacy, recreation, & a home that feels entirely one-of-one—494 River Overlook is a rare & commanding statement on Lake Lanier. This is luxury without compromise. This is the kind of property people remember....
