After four years of ownership, Zac Brown has decided to sell his Georgia retreat located on the southern shores of Lake Lanier in Cumming, about 45 miles northeast of downtown Atlanta. The Grammy-winning country/rock group Zac Brown Band’s frontman is listing the waterfront property for $3.25 million, having purchased it for $1.8 million in June 2020.
Built in the early 1990s, the white wood and stone house features seven bedrooms and five bathrooms within over 9,400 square feet of living space spread across three levels. It includes surround sound and automated window treatments. The nearly one-acre wooded lot boasts a heated infinity pool with a waterfall and spa, a cedar-clad dock with a party deck, a separate boathouse, and 150 feet of waterfront. Additionally, there is a detached five-car garage.
The main level highlights include a formal dining room, a double-height living area with picture windows, a built-in entertainment center, and a stone fireplace reaching the ceiling. The adjacent kitchen is equipped with quartz countertops, an eat-in island, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, and a walk-in pantry. It connects to a breakfast room with a fireplace that leads out to a screened porch with water views. The primary suite features a seating area with a fireplace, a walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a shower.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a loft-style lounging space that leads to a library with a wet bar. The terrace level includes two additional bedrooms with access to a kitchenette, a gym with a sauna, and a movie theater with professional lighting, tiered seating, multiple TVs, and gaming systems. There is also a recreation room with a bar, fireplace, and French doors opening to a large deck.
According to listing agent Katie McGuirk of Ansley Christie’s International Real Estate, the 46-year-old musician, also known as a songwriter, producer, record label head, and philanthropist, bought the lakefront home during the COVID-19 pandemic as a retreat for making music and relaxing with friends and family.
“This has been an incredible home for me and my family, with a great location that feels like it’s a world away from the city,” Brown said in a press statement. “We’re sad to let it go, but I look forward to passing it on to new owners who will fill it with new memories.”
