There is a partial basement that has a ton of opportunities and already is plumbed for a bath. It is a GREAT location on Lake Lanier and very close to Port Royale on the south side of Browns Bridge Rd. The walk to the platform dock is very easy and when you get to the lake, you'll love the wide cove with very pretty water. The really cool thing about this house and location is you can fix up the existing home and live there while you build your dream home closer to the lake. The Corp line is relatively low on the right side of the property and the lot lines are marked with pink ribbons. Sold AS IS.
