A pale mint ranch sits at the end of a long concrete drive in Cumming, Georgia. Woods close in on three sides. A white chimney marks the right gable. Built in 1969, the house has three bedrooms, one bath, and about 1,202 square feet on roughly 0.80 wooded acres with a permitted platform dock on Lake Lanier.

Fresh paint covers the stucco and the rooms inside. New luxury vinyl runs through the kitchen. New carpet covers the living room and bedrooms. The kitchen has new cabinets, granite, and appliances. This is a small house with lake access, not a large estate. The draw is the water and the trees.

A mint-green ranch with an oval-glass door and a brick chimney faces a wide concrete drive.

The listing is an online auction. Bidding is set for September 8 through September 22 at noon. The sale is subject to reserve. Lake levels were low from drought when the photos were shot. A buyer should confirm the dock permit and any upgrade path with the Corps of Engineers.

The drive drops through hardwoods toward the one-story house and a small front lawn.

Living Room, Fireplace, and the Front Door

The living room is one open rectangle. Gray walls, white trim, and speckled carpet keep the space simple. A pink-brown brick fireplace sits on a raised hearth with a short run of terra-cotta tile in front. A fire is lit in the listing photos. Two windows with white blinds look into the trees.

A brick fireplace and gray carpet fill the main living room just inside the front door.

A white column stands beside the hearth and marks a slight change in the ceiling. The textured ceiling is original. Recessed lights and a flush disc add light after dark. Meanwhile, the front door with oval glass sits straight ahead from the fireplace, so you see the yard the moment you turn around.

The same fireplace faces a second window and a white column that divides the living room.

From the hearth, the room opens to the front door, a side window, and luxury vinyl in the kitchen.

Kitchen, Appliances, and Where You Eat

The kitchen is the newest room in the house. White shaker cabinets wear gold pulls. Granite covers the counters. A gold gooseneck faucet sits over a stainless sink. A black glass cooktop, a dishwasher, and a microwave are in place. The refrigerator is new as well.

White cabinets, granite, and new stainless appliances line the galley kitchen on wood-look vinyl.

This is not a gourmet kitchen with an island. It is a galley that works. A globe chandelier hangs over the run of cabinets. Wood-look vinyl is easy to sweep after lake days. A wide opening leads back to the carpeted living room, so conversation carries while someone cooks.

There is no formal dining room on the list. A table can sit in the kitchen or at the edge of the living room. Laundry is on the main floor. Heating is in the house. There is no basement.

Bedrooms, the Bath, and the Primary Suite

All three bedrooms sit on one level. The listing notes a first-floor primary bedroom and a walk-in closet. One bedroom shows two windows side by side, gray walls, and the same speckled carpet. Trees fill those windows. It is a quiet room for a guest or a child.

A carpeted bedroom looks into the woods through a pair of windows with white blinds.

Only one full bath serves the house. The seller says it was updated. Confirm fixtures and storage on a walk-through, because a three-bedroom ranch with a single bath will feel tight if more than two people live here full time. On the other hand, the layout is simple for a weekend place.

Yard, Fire Pit, Dock Path, and Outdoor Living Space

The lot is the bigger story. Hardwoods wrap the house. A stone fire ring sits in the side yard. Pine straw and river rock edge the foundation. A long drive gives extra parking. Curb appeal here is quiet and wooded, not street-facing polish.

A stone fire pit sits in the grass beside the ranch, with the drive and woods beyond.

A concrete slab runs along the back wall. A sliding door, an AC condenser, and a small utility panel face the slab. It is a simple patio, but it stays dry and takes chairs. From there, a path continues through the trees toward the cove.

The rear slab patio sits under the eave beside a sliding door and the outdoor condenser.

A path through the woods leaves the side of the house and heads toward the lake and dock.

A permitted platform dock is already on the water. The seller believes an 18-by-24 dock may be possible. That is not a promise. The Corps of Engineers has the last word on Lake Lanier docks. The cove is described as shallow and quiet. Kayaks, swimming, and fishing fit this setup better than a large cruiser, especially when the lake is down.

Forsyth County Life and the Drive to Town

Cumming and Forsyth County sit north of Atlanta on GA-400. Grocery stores, marinas, and medical offices are a short drive. Schools are in the Forsyth County system. Attendance zones change, so a buyer should confirm the current elementary, middle, and high school for 3510 Riviera Drive.

Lake Lanier is the local weekend plan. Bald Ridge and other marinas are nearby by car or boat. The real estate market still pays a premium for any legal dock, even on a modest ranch. This house is small. The land and the permit are what other buyers will bid on.

Privacy is real because the lot is wooded and the drive is long. Neighbors exist through the trees. Pets and a fire pit already have a home in the yard. Future expansion is possible on paper, but setbacks and Corps lines will control what can be built.
