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.

Storms, flooding possible across Southeast Georgia, Northeast Florida today
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Storm activity is expected to fire up around midday, starting inland from the Gulf sea breeze. From there, storms will track eastward at 20-25 mph, and that faster movement is actually good news for flooding concerns.
Some minor, temporary flooding is possible through tonight, especially in low-lying areas and spots that typically flood during heavy rain events.
The best chances for stronger storms and heavier rainfall will be north and near I-10 during the afternoon and evening hours.
The Weather Prediction Center has placed roughly the northern two-thirds of the area under a marginal risk of excessive rainfall.
What to expect through the night
Rain chances will stay elevated into the evening but should taper off after midnight. However, inland Northeast Florida could see a late round of showers or storms develop due to enhanced west coast sea breeze.
Gusty winds and frequent lightning can’t be ruled out. Always have your indoor plan ready to go for shelter access.
Cooler temperatures, patchy fog round out the forecast
High temperatures will run below average, topping out in the mid-to-upper 80s. Overnight lows will range from the upper 60s to near 70 degrees across inland Southeast Georgia, with mid-70s expected closer to the Atlantic coast.
Patchy fog is expected early this morning and again Sunday morning. Brief periods of dense fog are possible, so drivers should use caution on the roads during those early morning hours.

Georgia baseball will resume NCAA Regional game with LIU Saturday morning
Georgia baseball will resume its NCAA Athens Regional game with Long Island at 9 a.m. on Saturday, May 29, after persistent rain—heavy at times—forced the suspension of the game.
The Bulldogs have a commanding 15-1 lead with nobody out in the bottom of the sixth.
The teams and some fans waited out a delay that started 7:14 p.m.
The game was suspended officially at 9:06 p.m. Long Island players were already grabbing their equipment in the dugout to depart for the team hotel before then.
The winner of Georgia-LIU will play No. 3 seed Liberty Saturday in the double-elimination tournament in a game scheduled for 5 p.m.
The loser will play No. 2 seed Boston College at noon.
The No. 3 national seed Bulldogs hit six homers before the game was delayed due to heavy rain.
There was a 53 percent chance of rain at 9 a.m. Saturday, according to weather.com, decreasing to 17 percent at 11 a.m., but there’s a threat of storms in the afternoon.

Georgia Power customers to see modest savings under new rate plan approved by PSC
The Georgia Public Service Commission this week approved a plan expected to reduce utility bills for Georgia Power customers by a few dollars a month.
The commission said the change will generate about $285 million in total annual savings for Georgia Power customers, or roughly $50 per year — about $4.04 per month — for the average residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt-hours a month.
The Georgia PSC voted Thursday to lower overall rates as part of the approved plan.
Georgia Power Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer Tyler Cook said the decision will provide “real savings for Georgia families and businesses as the heat of summer begins and energy use increases.”
“At Georgia Power, our teams work every day to run our business efficiently and keep reliable and affordable energy flowing to our customers,” Cook said.
Cook said the outcome followed months of work between Georgia Power and PSC staff, including reviews, public hearings and input from residents and intervenors.
The approved plan is tied to a stipulated agreement reached earlier this month involving two cases filed with the PSC in February, the Fuel Cost Recovery case and the Storm Cost Recovery case. Those cases addressed recovering fuel costs used to generate electricity and expenses tied to restoring power after storms.
Georgia Power said its rates remain, on average, about 15% below the national average and that it is still on track to provide additional annual savings of about $102 per year for typical residential customers beginning in 2029.
