Introducing an extraordinary European-inspired LAKEFRONT estate on the coveted shores of Lake Lanier, where timeless elegance meets modern sophistication. This architectural masterpiece at 4045 Merritt Drive, Cumming, GA offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bonus rooms, 4 1/2 bathrooms, and nearly 4,100 sq. ft. of refined living space, including a 1,200 sq. ft. fully finished terrace level with dual bars, a private office, and lavish entertaining areas. Crafted with imported European finishes, designer elements, and the trendiest luxury upgrades, every detail reflects today's highest design standards. Perfectly positioned on a 0.45-acre lot with a concrete driveway and 2-car garage, this residence combines lakeside serenity with uncompromising style. The main level is a showcase of grandeur, featuring a spacious open living room with soaring ceilings, a dramatic wall of windows framing the lake, and a gas log fireplace. A large front porch overlooks Lake Lanier, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. The chef's dream European kitchen is appointed with top-of-the-line appliances-including a warming drawer-custom cabinetry, a hidden butler's pantry, and the most sought-after finishes on the market today. A versatile flex space-perfect for an office, piano room, or sitting room-adds extra functionality. A powder room/half bath completes the main floor's thoughtful design. Upstairs, the master retreat is a sanctuary of indulgence. It features its own private espresso station so you can enjoy your morning coffee without waking the rest of the home, dual vanities, a luxurious sitting tub, an oversized tile shower, and a massive walk-in closet designed for boutique-style organization. Three additional bedrooms and two spa-inspired bathrooms continue the home's theme of modern luxury and comfort. The terrace level transforms entertaining into an art form, offering a second full bar with a wine cooler and sink, an expansive recreation area with a sitting lounge, and a dedicated office/bonus room alongside a full bath. From there, a beautifully landscaped 40-foot wide trail leads to your own private platform dock, delivering the pinnacle of lakefront living. Just minutes from Bald Ridge Marina and downtown conveniences, yet perfectly secluded, this remarkable estate redefines luxury lakefront living with all of today's most desirable finishes.
