About this home

Spectacular sunsets and refined architectural details define this extraordinary waterfront residence in Swift Island Plantation. Thoughtfully designed to embrace its stunning setting, the home is a showcase of exceptional craftsmanship, elegant finishes, and beautifully curated living spaces.

From the moment you enter, soaring ceilings, walls of glass, rich wood flooring, custom millwork, and striking stone fireplaces create an atmosphere of understated luxury. The dramatic great room serves as the centerpiece of the home, seamlessly connecting to spaces designed for both everyday comfort and sophisticated entertaining.

The kitchen is beautifully appointed with custom cabinetry, granite surfaces, premium appliances, and gathering spaces that overlook the pool and lake beyond. A richly appointed office with Brazilian mahogany flooring and private fireplace offers a distinguished retreat for work or study.

The main-level owner's suite is a private sanctuary featuring tranquil waterfront views, exquisite ceiling detail, and a luxurious travertine bath designed for relaxation. Upstairs, spacious guest accommodations and additional living areas provide comfort and privacy for family and visitors alike.

Outdoors, the experience is equally impressive. A sparkling pool, expansive terraces, mature landscaping, and breathtaking sunset views create a setting that feels more like a private resort than a residence. The impressive 1,200+ sq ft boathouse offers exceptional space for entertaining and enjoying the very best of life on Lake Tillery.

Rarely does a home combine architectural beauty, quality craftsmanship, and such a remarkable waterfront setting in one exceptional offering.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
