Palm Point
There are only about 200 lake homes within 15-minutes of the desirable northern half of Metro Atlanta. All of
these lakes have been built-out for decades. Many of these properties tend to stay in the family... handed
down, generation to generation. Each year, they become harder and harder to obtain. Rarely, a very few
become available... fewer still with big-water views. Palm Point is one of those rare properties, the first time on
the market in over 30-years.
Palm Point is nestled on a deep water (6+ feet), point lot (0.6-0.75-acres +/-) with a big water view on a 40-
acre private lake with 45 lakefront homes, 10-miles east of I-285 (8 of which are via a limited-access major
freeway), 9-miles south of Norcross and 2.5 miles east of Stone Mountain Park.
If you’re a water person like me, you must have a big water view, boating, fishing and swimming. As you have
found, this can be a huge challenge in Metro Atlanta! Big water views this close to Atlanta typically require
investments exceeding $1M. Palm Point offers a $1M+ view for less than half price! Properties like Palm Point
only become available every few years. Don’t miss the rare opportunity to own one of Atlanta Metro’s premiere
waterfront properties!
When I purchased this home in 1983, I worked in Atlanta and required a practical commute. I diligently
researched all lakes north of I-20. There are only three within 20-minutes of the perimeter. Lake Lucerne
provided the best option. It offers great lake living in an excellent location in the highly-desirable Parkview
School District (Moutain Park Elementary, Trickum Middle and Parkview High School; 2-miles away), an active
community and convenience to shopping... as well as Atlanta, Emory University, Decatur, Y’allywood and
Norcross. The highly-rated Gwinnett Medical Center is less than 10-minutes away. The world’s busiest airport
is only 38-miles and City Center is less than 30-min. in good traffic. Due to its close proximity and beauty, we
call our lake community "Atlanta’s Best-Kept Secret". It was voted one of "Gwinnett County's Best
Neighborhoods" in 2008.
This single-story, 3/4-bedroom, 3-full bath ranch has approximately 2560-sq.ft. under roof. The home has
been remodeled and updated several times over the last 33-years and has been maintained with loving care.

The New Owners of Palm Point
You are true lake/water lovers and know well the value of rare, waterfront properties like Palm Point. You will
treasure the beauty, nature and privacy the lake and community provide, as we have for over three decades.
You will have convenient access to all the amenities Southern Gwinnett County, Decatur and Atlanta have to
offer, all while living in a private oasis just minutes from town.
-You are tired of living cooped up in town and are ready to enjoy resort-style, lake living, but still want to be near
the city. Or, you are tired of a 1+ hour commute yet are unwilling to live on a 1/4-acre property with no character.
-You wish to wake up each morning to the expansive view of the beautiful lake and enjoy the sunsets every
evening.
-You want to walk to the dock and be on the water in less than 2-minutes, any time of the day or night
-You want to raise a family or retire in a thriving community, with a private nature preserve as your back yard.
-You realize there are only three larger lakes on the north side of Metro Atlanta and very few homes ever
become available.
-You want the seasoned benefits that only a well-loved, established property offers.
-You will love to take advantage of four beautiful recreational facilities within 5-miles...

Only two homes have been built on Lake Lucerne in the last 15-years, on the last two
vacant lots. Both required investments of well over $600,000. We have updated and
improved this property several times over the years... including a near-complete re-build in
1993, 120+’ of seawall in 2003, new lakeside office/BR and bath in 2006 and a new deck and
sun-room in 2014. Actual investment in this property easily exceeds $450,000.
I hate to leave, too, as I dearly love this home, the lake, neighbors and community! I always
planned to eventually move to a farm in NE Georgia, near where many of my friends and
family reside. This is the year for my move... and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for
someone else to take over the stewardship of Palm Point. I sincerely want to pass this
stewardship to a new owner who will love and cherish this property as much as I have...
and be an ongoing asset to the community.
I will consider partial Bitcoin/Ethereum trades.
