Birch Tree Cottage offers an exceptional opportunity to own a private waterfront retreat in the exclusive Howells Grove enclave in Reynolds Lake Oconee. Set along 127 feet of peaceful deep-water frontage, this custom residence features a max dock, boat lift, and electric awning-creating an ideal setting for effortless lake living. Designed by T. S. Adams and masterfully built by Rob Marett, the home showcases authentic stonework, premium craftsmanship, and refined architectural details throughout. From the moment you arrive, the quality and attention to detail are unmistakable. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both everyday comfort and elegant entertaining. A chef's kitchen with upgraded appliances opens to an inviting keeping room, while French doors connect the lakeside living spaces to a generous screened porch with a fireplace. This seamless indoor-outdoor flow creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere for gatherings, quiet mornings, and memorable evenings overlooking the water. The private primary suite offers a serene escape, complete with its own porch overlooking the cove, dual vanities, a soaking tub, separate shower, and a spacious closet. Four additional ensuite bedrooms provide exceptional privacy and comfort for family and guests, including two with lake views and a spacious ensuite bedroom above the three-car garage. The terrace level extends the home's appeal with a bar, pool table, and family room that opens to a stone porch overlooking the lake-perfect for relaxed entertaining and lakeside refreshments. Additional features include hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, a whole-house water softener, professional landscaping, and a lake-fed irrigation system. With access to the acclaimed Reynolds Lake Oconee lifestyle-including The Ritz-Carlton, miles of walking trails, world-class amenities, and seven golf courses-Birch Tree Cottage is more than a home; it is an invitation to experience lake life at its finest. The seller is making a Golf Membership available, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy one of Georgia's premier lake and golf communities.
