5 Luxe Georgia Waterfront, Acreage, and New-Build Retreats

Along the water’s edge on Talahi Island Lane in Brunswick, this residence is designed around the rhythms of coastal life. Deep-water access puts boating and waterfront days within easy reach, with the Intracoastal Waterway just five minutes away. When the horizon calls, the ocean is only about 15 minutes from home—close enough for spontaneous afternoons and early-morning outings. Back at the property, a saltwater pool creates a natural gathering place for relaxing and entertaining, offering a resort-like pause between time on the water and time ashore. It’s a setting that invites an unhurried routine: launch, cruise, return, and end the day poolside as the light changes over the water.

From its elevated setting on Hutchings Mountain Road in Rockmart, this estate pairs wide-open land with a quietly polished interior. A storybook white picket fence introduces 31 acres of rolling hills and pristine hardwoods, setting an unhurried tone before you even step inside. The layout balances classic and contemporary living: a formal dining room for gathered meals, and an expansive open-concept kitchen and family room that naturally becomes the daily hub. Vaulted ceilings and a striking rock fireplace add character and scale, while the gourmet kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel KitchenAid appliances. The main-level primary suite offers everyday ease, alongside six bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms for guests and extended stays. Downstairs, a finished basement with a cozy wood-burning stove is reached by dual staircases—one formal, one discreetly tucked behind a door—inviting slower evenings in.

The cook’s kitchen keeps pace with a 6-burner gas setup, hickory cabinets, a designer shroud, a chef-sized island, and a walk-in pantry with a second wall oven and microwave, all open to the great room’s T&G wood fireplace wall and striking wood ceiling. Outside, double doors open to a saltwater pool with a waterfall, a covered patio, fenced play space, a sunny garden spot, chicken coop, and firepit.

Along the water’s edge in Monroe, 167 Alcovy Springs Drive presents a custom new-construction residence built in 2025, where a modern layout meets daily comfort. An expansive plan includes five bedrooms, four and a half baths, a loft, and a bonus room, plus a three-car garage with a rear glass door in the third bay to open on either end. Mirage premium hardwood flooring runs through the main living spaces and all bedrooms, while the gourmet kitchen is finished with a modern quartz backsplash and supported by a butler’s pantry with a built-in filtered water dispenser. Outside, a large front porch looks onto mature foliage, and the backyard is designed for lingering—pool and spa, covered porch, natural gas hookup, and an outdoor fireplace. Thoughtful upgrades like spray foam insulation, added soundproofing, smart technology, and Starlink wiring keep the experience effortless from morning to sunset.

Along the water’s edge on Lake Nottely, this modern Brown Haven new construction pairs deep, year-round water with a TVA-approved single-slip dock permit already in place.

Inside, nearly 3,000 square feet of light-filled living space unfolds beneath soaring ceilings and walls of windows, framing lake and mountain views. The open-concept layout centers on a chef’s kitchen with high-end appliances and an oversized island, while a floor-to-ceiling fireplace anchors the main living area. A spacious primary suite with a spa-style bath is joined by additional bedrooms, an office, and a flexible den or media space designed for guests and entertaining. Set within the desirable Eagle Bend community, just minutes to Blairsville, days here feel easy and connected to the lake.
