Price & listing history
Building permits
Comparable recent sales
No closed sales of a similar home within about 10 miles in Hall County in the last 18 months are in our MLS data set, so this page shows no comparable-sales median or automated estimate for Lost River Cove. A licensed Momentum Realty agent can prepare a property-specific comparative market analysis on request.
The Messtimate
Insufficient local evidence for an automated estimate. The Messtimate is a deliberately simple range — living area × recent closed-sale $/sq ft from comparable homes nearby — and it only renders when at least 3 defensible sales exist within about 10 miles in Hall County in the last 18 months. None qualify for this home, so no dollar range is shown. It is not an appraisal or a valuation.
Methodology: the range would be 6,010 sq ft × the interquartile $/sq ft of comparable closed sales (same property type, living area within 30%, closed within 18 months, nearest verified subdivision, 3-mile, then 10-mile same-county stage). Estimate for general information only; never an appraisal, valuation, or offer. Updated October 11, 2026.

Items worth confirming for 3143 Winding Lake Drive, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 1995 (31 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.

- Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and confirm with your insurer whether flood insurance is required.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Hall County; age of roof and any prior claims affect the premium.
- Waterfront: confirm seawall or dock condition and permits, and ask who owns and maintains the shoreline.
- Listed living area is 6,010 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
- Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
- Review permit history with the county.
- Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $18,375/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price; confirm exemptions with the county tax assessor.

What community is 3143 Winding Lake Drive in?

Estimate methodology. Tax estimates apply county millage to the list price (less the homestead exemption where the parcel is matched to the certified roll) and will differ from the actual assessed bill. Cost and market figures are derived from available data and simple calculations, not a professional appraisal. We make no representation that any estimate reflects fair market value.
