PRIVATE DOCK ON LAKE LANIER and NO HOA. 3056 Clear Cove Way is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath waterfront home in Gainesville's Tranquility Cove with 140 feet of Army Corps shoreline frontage. The dock is a private covered single-slip with a party deck on top and a jet ski port alongside. It sits at the end of a gradual, GOLF CART FRIENDLY walk from the house to the water's edge, which on Lake Lanier is rarer than the boat slip itself. Inside, 2,662 finished square feet across three levels. The main level lives open under a vaulted ceiling: hardwood floors, granite counters, and a kitchen, dining, and living area that works as one continuous gathering space, plus two bedrooms, a full bath, and a main-floor flex room that works as an additional bedroom, an office, a library, or a craft room, depending on what you need. Upstairs, a loft overlooks the main level, and the primary suite has a walk-in closet and a whirlpool tub, which is exactly what you want after a day on the water. Downstairs, the finished WALK-OUT TERRACE LEVEL adds a fourth bedroom or guest suite with its own full bath, so weekend overflow has somewhere to land. Outdoor space is the whole point of a lake lot, and this one comes in layers: a screened porch sitting up in the trees under a beamed tongue-and-groove ceiling, a side deck with a grilling area, and a deep covered patio off the terrace level. The back yard is fenced, the lot is 1.29 wooded acres, and the whole thing sits at the end of a cul-de-sac. Big-ticket items are already handled on a home built in 2004: roof replaced 2021, downstairs HVAC 2022, water heater 2025, septic pump 2021, all-electric systems and appliances, public water, a fireplace, and a 2-car garage with the kind of storage lake gear demands. On the water, Sardis Creek Access Boat Ramp is under a mile away, Gainesville Marina is about five minutes out for fuel and service, and Don Carter State Park's trails, beach, and campgrounds are about 20 minutes up the lake. On land, Dawsonville Highway shopping and dining is about 10 minutes, downtown Gainesville's square and Northeast Georgia Medical Center about 15, Dahlonega wine country roughly half an hour, and Helen and the North Georgia mountains about 45 minutes, with Hartsfield-Jackson International roughly an hour and a half via GA-400. This is the Hall County side of Lake Lanier. Waterfront with a private covered slip, over an acre, and NO HOA.
