This master bedroom got an update with warm and cool color tones. We added an upholstered headboard in a rich gray fabric with tufting that tucks neatly under the smaller transom windows. A calm color palette gets a punch of color with orange and gray pillows. Bedding is simple with not too many accent pillows. We also added woven shades, finger pleated drapery and a plush rug that is really soft under foot.

Stuart Wade, Envision Web Lake Burton is a 2,775 acre man-made lake with 62 miles of shoreline located in the northeastern corner of Georgia in Rabun County. It is the first lake in a five-lake series called the Tallulah River Watershed that follows the original course of the Tallulah River. The series of lakes starts with Lake Burton as the northernmost lake followed by Lake Seed, Lake Rabun, Lake Tallulah Falls and the eastern arm of Lake Tugalo (the western arm is formed by the Chattooga River. The lakes are owned and operated by the Georgia Power Company to generate hydroelectric energy for Georgia's largest city, Atlanta. At one time these lakes were the largest producers of electricity in the state of Georgia. Now, they only provide peak power supply. The lake was built in a deep valley located along a 10 mile section of the Tallulah River. The Lake Burton Dam was closed on December 22, 1919 and the lake started to fill. The dam is a gravity concrete dam, with a height of 128 feet and a span of 1,100 feet. The spillway is equipped with eight gates 22 feet wide by 6.6 feet high. The total capacity at an elevation of 1,866.6 feet is 108,000 acre-ft, of which 106,000 acre-ft is usable storage. The generating capacity of the dam is 6,120 kilowatts (two units).Lake Burton is the highest Georgia Power lake in Georgia. Lake Burton gets its named from the town of Burton, which was the second largest town in Rabun County with a population of approximately 200 but now lies below the lake's surface. The town (and the lake) was named after local prominent citizen Jeremiah Burton and was situated along the road from Clayton, Georgia to the Nacoochee Valley. Andrew Jackson Ritchie served as the postmaster for the area for several years. Gold was first discovered in Rabun County where Dicks Creek and the Tallulah River come together and was the reason for the town's founding in the early 1800s. The Lake Burton Fish Hatchery and Moccasin Creek State Park are located on the western side of the lake. Lake Burton is home to several species of fish, including Spotted Bass, Largemouth Bass, White Bass, Black Crappie, Bluegill, Redear Sunfish, White Catfish, Walleye, Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout, and Yellow Perch. The residents of Lake Burton are a mix of permanent residents and seasonal vacationers who together make-up the Lake Burton Civic Association, a local organization who goal is to maintain the lake through volunteer clean-ups and other such events. Let a Lake Burton resident and expert show you the way The Lake Burton Civic Association is an active homeowners association for residents of the Lake Burton area and sponsors many events throughout the year such as:

These homeowners recently relocated from California and wanted to make this Lake Forest home their own. We furnished the large Master Bedroom with a striking collection from Lexington Home Brands. I love the faux tufting on the upholstered headboard and the painted gray finish and square brushed nickel hardware on the case pieces. I do not normally like all the pieces to match, but this room is large enough to handle it, and we mixed in other pieces to keep the room interesting. We painted the walls Sherwin Williams’ Anew Gray (SW7030). Since the windows had plantation shutters, we decided not to add window treatments, but achieved warmth with layered bedding and a soft rug underfoot in a geometric pattern. We decked out the cozy reading corner with a gorgeous chair, velvet footstool, mirrored nesting tables and floor lamp. The artwork is bold and beautiful! The unique accessories in silver tones complete the space. This is a Master Bedroom done right. It is a soothing space with lots to keep your interest. Enjoy!
