A Fully Updated Craftsman Lakefront on Lake Wedowee

Lake Wedowee living without the to-do list. 3142 Crescent Crest Drive offers 4,078 finished square feet above grade plus a finished terrace level on 0.82 waterfront acres, all behind a Hardiplank-and-stacked-rock Craftsman exterior under a 50-year shingle roof (2017). A complete 2023 renovation refreshed the kitchen, primary bath, and shared baths, while custom cabinetry, honed quartz counters, tongue-and-groove ceilings, and 10+ ft ceilings carry the finish level through the home.

Built for everyday lake living: a main-level primary suite, a chef's kitchen anchored by a walk-in pantry and induction range, two covered back decks (off the living room and the primary), an outdoor fireplace, and a hardscape patio that steps down to a floating dock with sun deck and boat lift on year-round water — five minutes from Wedowee town center and a comfortable drive from Birmingham and Atlanta.
