What makes 298 W River Bend Drive on Lake Oconee unique?

A Location Lake Lovers Know
The home sits on the coveted south end of Lake Oconee, near the dam and the jumping rock, in one of the most beautiful stretches of the lake. It’s a short boat ride from the Ritz-Carlton, and close to everyday conveniences like Publix and Harmony Crossing.
Designed, Not Built From a Blueprint
What began as a modest lake cottage has been completely reimagined into a thoughtfully designed lake home.
A gallery foyer that sets the tone
You’re greeted by an impressive gallery foyer with 24-foot ceilings and contemporary iron doors, setting a tone of light and space from the moment you walk in.
Elevated, magazine-worthy finishes
The builder is known across Lake Oconee for her elevated finishes, and designer doors are her signature. Throughout the home, metals, woods, and stone are layered with intention beneath custom pine beams and color-drenched walls. It’s magazine-worthy, yet easy for lake living.
Lake views from nearly every room
Walls of glass frame Lake Oconee from nearly every room, so the water is always part of the view.
The Floor Plan Lake Buyers Rarely Find
This is the floor plan lake buyers ask for and almost never find: a true main-level walk-out with the primary and secondary suites all on one level.
Upstairs you’ll find:
- A guest suite for visiting family and friends
- A gym, so your workout comes with a lake view
- A game room for the whole crew
- A bunk room that sleeps up to 14, so there’s room for everyone
Your Own Private Resort
Step outside and the estate becomes your own private resort:
- A custom pool framed by lake views
- A level lot with a volleyball court
- A doggie splash pad for your four-legged family
- Patios that dissolve indoors into out, built for entertaining
Move-In Ready and Fully Furnished
The home is being offered fully furnished, so you can arrive with a suitcase and start your first lake weekend right away.
