About this home
Lake Lanier living takes on a whole new meaning when you have room to spread out-on the water and on the land. Set on approximately 2.46 acres across two platted lots in sought-after Pointe South, this distinctive lake property pairs a stately four-sided brick home with nearly 160 feet of shoreline, a private cove, an additional buildable lot, and exceptional possibilities for the future. The lakefront lot is currently improved with a single-slip placeholder dock, while the property is permitted for an upgraded 32' x 32' double-slip dock.
A gentle golf-cart-friendly path makes getting to the water easy, and recent shoreline improvements include new rip-rap and newly constructed dock steps to the ramp. Whether your days are spent boating, entertaining at the dock, cruising to dinner, or simply enjoying the quiet of the cove, this is a setting designed for the Lake Lanier lifestyle. The European-inspired residence offers timeless architecture, generous living spaces, and a layout that works equally well for everyday living and entertaining.
The main level welcomes you with a dramatic two-story foyer and great room, hardwood flooring throughout much of the living area, formal dining room, private office or music room, and multiple fireplaces. The spacious kitchen features solid-surface countertops, a gas range, dual ovens, abundant cabinetry, a breakfast area, and an adjoining vaulted keeping/family room. An expansive rear deck overlooks the wooded backyard and provides another inviting place to enjoy the surroundings.
The main-level primary suite features direct porch access, a trey ceiling with indirect lighting, spacious bath with vaulted ceiling, dual vanities, and generous walk-in closets. Upstairs are three oversized bedrooms, two full baths, and a large bonus room offering flexibility for guests, recreation, or additional workspace. The partially finished terrace level adds tremendous potential.
Already served by HVAC and with plumbing, electrical, and framing in place, it includes a media room with in-wall speakers along with additional daylight spaces ready to become bedrooms, a game room, home office, gym, or expanded entertaining areas. A bath has been started (waiting for your finish style), and walkout access leads directly to the lower outdoor living area and backyard. Perhaps one of the property's most compelling features is the second buildable lot.
Preserve it for added privacy or explore the possibilities of a future second residence, guest home, or resort-style infinity edge pool and spa with cabana. With substantial acreage, lake frontage, dock and two separate platted lots, this property offers options rarely found together on Lake Lanier. Located just minutes from downtown Gainesville, I-985, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences, 5359 Point South Drive is more than a lake home-it's an opportunity to shape a Lake Lanier property around the way you want to live.

Price & listing history
Building permits
Comparable recent sales
6 closed sales within about 3 miles in the last 18 months — same property type, living area within 30% of this home. Sold prices are MLS closed-sale records, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
Median of these 6 sales: $625,000 ($167/sq ft). Stronger local evidence. Shown for general reference only — not an appraisal or a statement of this home’s value.
The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
Stronger local evidence — 6 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.
Actual list price: $1,850,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 113% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
- Condition & updates — a 2001 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; sq ft can't see either.
- The lot — this listing is waterfront; water frontage is priced far off a per-sq-ft average of the neighborhood.
- Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 6 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
- Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
- 1 active listing competing
For reference, this home is listed at $1,850,000 ($502/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.

Items worth confirming for 5359 Point South Drive, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.

- 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 3,682 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.
