Zac Brown lists Georgia mansion for $3.25M amid divorce: ‘Sad to let it go’
Country star Zac Brown is saying goodbye to his luxurious Lake Lanier, Georgia estate — just as his divorce battle heats up.
Brown has put his sprawling lakeside home on the market for $3.25 million, hoping to make a hefty profit after buying it for $1.8 million back in June 2020. The listing was first reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Situated about 45 miles northeast of Atlanta, the home is in a gated community on the south side of Lake Lanier, close to where Brown grew up in Cumming. The massive 9,448-square-foot property boasts seven bedrooms and five bathrooms, and offers plenty of perks to attract buyers.
“The kitchen overlooks an open-concept vaulted living room and a fireside breakfast room flowing to a screened porch with lake views,” the listing reads, adding that the main level includes a primary suite with vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, double vanities and custom walk-in closets.
Upstairs, there are three more bedrooms and a library — while the terrace level is packed with amenities, such as a fully equipped bar, a rec room, a home gym, a sauna and even a home theater.
Outside, there’s a deck with a heated infinity pool and spa overlooking the lake, along with a boat house that includes a climate-controlled space for two boats and additional living quarters upstairs.
Of course, the property’s party credentials are top-notch, with a two-slip covered cedar deck that has its own party area, two hydro boat lifts and two jet ski lifts.
“This has been an incredible home for me and my family and being this close to Atlanta,” Brown told The Post in a video statement. “But it feels private and a world away, which is great. Sad to let it go, but excited for some new memories to fill up the place. It served me and my family well. I know the next one will really enjoy it.”
Katie McGuirk of Ansley Real Estate — Christie’s International Real Estate holds the listing.
This move comes as Brown, 45, navigates a rocky split from his most recent wife, Kelly Yazdi. The pair were married for just four months before Brown announced their separation last December.
Things quickly turned sour, with Brown filing a lawsuit against Yazdi in May, accusing her of violating a confidentiality agreement and damaging his reputation. A judge, however, denied his request for a temporary restraining order.
Yazdi then filed her own lawsuit. She claimed that Brown used actual footage from their wedding in the music video for his hit “Beautiful Drug” featuring Avicii and cast an actress to portray her negatively.
A request for comment on the proceedings was not returned by press time.
This isn’t Brown’s first time navigating rocky marital waters. He was married to Shelly Brown for 12 years before their 2018 divorce. The former couple shares five kids together — four daughters and a son.
The SEC has announced the future Georgia football conference opponents for the 2026 through 2029 seasons.
Georgia will face Florida, South Carolina and Auburn every season. The SEC announced on Friday that the annual opponents will be revisited every four seasons.
Georgia football future SEC opponents, schedule
- 2026: Florida (Atlanta), at South Carolina, Auburn, at Alabama, at Ole Miss, at Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Vanderbilt
- 2027: Florida (Tampa), South Carolina, at Auburn, at Kentucky, at Texas, at Texas A&M, LSU, Mississippi State, Tennessee
- 2028: Florida (Jacksonville), at South Carolina, Auburn, Alabama, Ole Miss, Arkansas, at Oklahoma, at Missouri, at Vanderbilt
- 2029: Florida (Jacksonville), South Carolina, at Auburn, Kentucky, Texas, Texas A&M, at LSU, at Mississippi State, at Tennessee
“it’s hard. I mean, it’s brutal. And everybody’s the same,” Georgia coach Kirby Smart said on Tuesday night. “I mean, we all gotta play each other. It’s really tough, highly ranked teams, physical teams. It’s just going to continue to be a grind. I mean, looking forward with the nines coming, it’s going to be scary because you just don’t have enough. Nobody has enough depth.”
Dates for the 2026 schedule will be announced in December, according to the conference. The schedules will be flipped in 2028 and 2029 from the home-road splits in 2026 and 2027.
In its scheduling outline, the SEC made it clear it wants competitively balanced schedules, which will be determined using the entire schedule and not just the annual opponents. Tennessee reportedly will face Alabama, Vanderbilt and Kentucky in each of the next four years. The latter two are not exactly football powerhouses.
According to the SEC, the highest opponent average winning percentage for any school in the 2026-29 schedules is 55.67% while the lowest is 46.65%, a difference of only 9.02%. From 2020 through 2023 — when the league still used the divisional format — the highest winning percentage was 61.32% and the lowest was 39.76%.
In addition to nine conference games, the SEC stipulates that schools face one Power Four in its nonconference scheduling.
Georgia’s game against Georgia Tech satisfies that requirement. Georgia has future nonconference games against Louisville, Florida State, Clemson and Ohio State on its schedule for the time being.
As it stands, Georgia has 13 games scheduled for the 2025 season. The Bulldogs have nonconfernce games against Tennessee State, Western Kentucky, Louisville and Georgia Tech.
“We’re working through that right now, and a lot of that’s going to be determined as we learn when and where our schedule is going to be in the next few weeks,” Georgia athletic director Josh Brooks said. “But that’s something we’re attacking right now to see what our options are going to be in 2026. So we’re going to take it one year at a time right now. The first focus is going to be on 2026 and then 2027 and moving on. So still a lot of work to be done, and I work closely with Coach Smart and Mark Robinson and the league to kind of figure out what is that going to mean for our schedule moving forward.”
Georgia takes on Alabama this week, with the game scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
The grounds for his arrest are still unknown, even to his attorneys.
We’re back for another week of college football action and the slate is loaded, including three games between ranked opponents.
Here’s how to watch in Week 3. Scroll down for live scores, highlights and more.

Here are the best games this Saturday:
Clemson at Georgia Tech (+3), Noon ET, ESPN: The Tigers are just 3-point favorites ahead of their first road game. It’s a sign that expectations for Clemson have been way off. With Haynes King back, the Yellow Jackets will want to keep it on the ground.
Georgia at Tennessee (+4), 3:30 p.m., ABC: Has Georgia’s offense been good enough ahead of this pivotal SEC game? Saturday is the day to air it out as Tennessee will be without its top two corners again.
South Florida at Miami (-17.5), 4:30 p.m., The CW: The Bulls are the surprise team so far this season. Can they pull off a third straight upset, or will the ‘Canes handle business?

Florida at LSU (-7), 7:30 p.m., ABC: This game was going to be the day’s marquee matchup before Florida’s loss to USF. A Florida victory would certainly quiet the idea that Billy Napier is on the hot seat.
Texas A&M at Notre Dame (-6.5), 7:30 p.m., NBC: Aggies QB Marcel Reed has thrown for seven TDs so far and A&M’s offense has racked up 953 total yards. The Irish will surely try to get the ball to their star running backs after a subpar opener.
