About 298 River Bend Drive

This is not a home built from a typical blueprint. It was designed to capture the heart of the most discerning buyer. On the coveted south end of Lake Oconee, near the dam + jumping rock, a short boat ride from the Ritz-Carlton. What began as a modest lake cottage now reimagined into a thoughtfully designed lake home. Greeted by an impressive gallery foyer, where 24-foot ceilings and contemporary iron doors set a tone of light and space. This builder is known across Lake Oconee for her elevated finishes: Designer doors are her signature. Throughout, metals, woods, and stone are layered with intention, beneath custom pine beams and color-drenched walls that are magazine worthy, yet stay easy for lake living. Walls of glass framing Lake Oconee from nearly every room. The floorplan is the ONE lake buyers rarely find: a true main-level walk-out with the primary and secondary suites all on one level, plus a guest suite, gym, and game room upstairs. The bunk room sleeps up to fourteen. Step outside to your own private resort, a custom pool framed by lake views + a level lot w/volleyball court, doggie splash pad, and patios that dissolve indoors into out. Fully furnished, and non-gated. No gate, your rules! Located in one of the most beautiful stretches of Lake Oconee!
