This rare Lake Lanier property in Gwinnett County pairs genuine waterfront frontage with nearly 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully arranged living space. Listed at $697,999 (MLS 10882664), 5984 Dolvin Lane delivers 3,971 square feet, three bedrooms, and three full bathrooms with zero half baths, all on a level 0.39 acre lot in the Valley Hi neighborhood.
The site is distinguished by more than 100 feet of usable shoreline and a soft sandy beach that provides a gentle, walkable route to the water. Buyers will appreciate the potential to pursue a dock permit subject to U.S. Army Corps approval, and a long secondary driveway that creates practical room for boat and trailer storage or the possibility of establishing an RV pad.
Inside, the home emphasizes volume and light. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams span principal rooms while wide windows frame lake glimpses. Durable hardwood and tile floors run through main living areas, supporting an easy-care lifestyle for frequent waterfront use. Public records list no basement.
The kitchen is configured to support both everyday family life and larger gatherings, featuring stone countertops, an oversized island, a breakfast bar, dual sinks, and an integrated wine cooler. Adjoining spaces flow into formal and casual dining zones plus a sunroom or flexible media area, giving multiple options for entertaining and daily routines.
The primary suite functions as a private retreat with a separate sitting area, two walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bathroom that includes double vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms and full baths provide comfortable accommodations for guests or family.
Exterior living is just as inviting with a welcoming front porch and a back deck ideal for grilling and evening gatherings. The level backyard makes outdoor recreation easy and offers direct access to the sandy shoreline for kayaking, paddleboarding, or quiet mornings by the water. Nearby marinas such as Lazy Days, Holiday Marina, and Lanier Harbor make boating convenient, while recreational destinations at Lanier Islands are only a short drive away.
Built in 1982 and located minutes from GA-400, I-985, I-85, and Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, this address balances lakeside seclusion with fast connections to the Atlanta region. The property sits in the Lanier High School district, with Lanier Middle School and White Oak Elementary serving younger students. Annual taxes are listed at $8,353.30.
