Harmony Bay

Located on a generously sized waterfront lot in the gated community of Harmony Bay, this immaculate and spacious 6500-sqft, 5-bedroom, 5.5-bath craftsman home shines like a pearl on the shores of Lake Oconee. From top to bottom of its three levels, Harmony Bay is dressed to impress with spacious rooms, an open floor plan, designer finishes, and luxurious amenities (including a pool!) that guarantee this lakefront oasis will be a family favorite for years to come.

Step inside the front door for a sweeping view of the living area, kitchen, and dining room that all offer 180-degree vistas of the sprawling back yard and glittering waters of Lake Oconee. Highlighted by a cascading chandelier, the vaulted living area is anchored by an enormous flatscreen TV with optimal streaming views from any angle of the oversized sectional and leather swivel chairs. Steps away is the gourmet kitchen that will bring a smile to anyone whose love language is food! It boasts a walk-in pantry and stainless-steel appliances including a custom side-by-side refrigerator/freezer, 5-burner stovetop oven, dishwasher, and built-in microwave and secondary oven – perfect for large crowds, especially at holiday time! A central island provides a farmhouse sink, additional prep space, and countertop seating for four. Ensconced behind the cabinets is a plentiful supply of dinnerware, servingware, and cookware. A dual-feature Cuisinart coffee machine is on standby with a carafe and k-pod reservoir. Seating options abound with two separate dining nooks that accommodate eight each, plus another four at the bar, making this a moveable feast for up to 20! In mild weather, take the dining experience outdoors for a fresh-air meal on the upper deck, and enjoy the use of the propane grill.

Also on the main floor are a master suite and guest suite, each occupying opposite wings and with private lakeside views. The elegant master bedroom showcases a king bed flanked by two nightstands, reading area with two sitting chairs, wall-mounted flatscreen TV, and private digital thermostat. The ensuite bathroom feels like a spa retreat with a European shower, soaking tub, double sink vanity, and a walk-in closet fit for royalty. The guest suite is no less impressive, with a king bed, wall-mounted flatscreen TV, and spacious private bath with a European shower and walk-in closet.

Down the hall is an office area that can be sectioned off by two sliding barn doors, a mudroom (for easy access from the adjacent garage), and a laundry room that would make Martha Stewart proud. Here, guests can take advantage of a digital frontload washer and dryer set, utility sink, and wardrobe rack.

From this end of the house, take the staircase to the bonus room above the garage. With a twin daybed + twin trundle, two bunk sets (four twin mattresses), two wrought iron twin beds, and a wrought iron queen bed, this space will be coveted by kids of all ages. It offers two entertainment areas (each with a flatscreen TV), and the bunk nightstands come with USB ports to keep devices juiced up! A full bathroom completes the bonus area.

The finished lower level needs its own zip code. With plentiful natural light streaming in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, this is less of a basement and more of bespoke entertainment and lounge area that leaves nothing to the imagination. A large sectional and two leather armchairs surround a wall-mounted flatscreen TV. Nearby, a wet bar comes equipped with a stainless-steel side-by-side refrigerator/freezer, sink, and icemaker. Three can sit on the counter-height barstools or at the adjacent live edge table with bench seating. Lining the room's perimeter are a pool table, NBA arcade machine, air hockey table, and dual basketball arcade game. Off the common area are three sizable bedrooms, one with a king bed, flatscreen TV, and ensuite bath with a European shower. The other two rooms (one with a queen bed and one with two bunks sets) both come with flatscreen TVs and share a full bath – perfect for a family whose little ones might need some nearby supervision.

A walk-out terrace puts guests within steps of the private gated pool. If the interior of Harmony Bay won't cure what's ailing you, the pool surely will. During cooler months, a pool heater is available for use for an extra fee. For more outdoor adventure, enjoy an adult beverage at the firepit while the kids compete at the ropes course. At water's edge, guests will find a well-maintained private dock with slips for both boat and jetski. It's also a spot ideal for anglers of all ages and levels. In summer months, there's no shortage of watercraft passing by, and it makes for spectacular sunset views. A short ride down the channel offers boat-up dining at Georgia Butts BBQ and rentals through Oconee Wild Watersports and Young Harris Watersports. For more options, visit nearby shops along Highway 44, including locally owned restaurants such as Sweet Kneads, Lake Oconee Bistro, 5B BBQ and Brews, and Café 44.

Without a doubt, Harmony Bay is an exceptional vacation rental that offers something for everyone. From those in need of quiet solitude to those who want high octane activities, this lakefront home accommodates every palate and will become a delightful backdrop for vacation memories.
