1Opinion of the Court

Thompson, Chief Justice.

April Gens purchased 4.3 acres of land adjacent to Lake Lanier in Forsyth County She divided the property into a number of residential lots, including Lot 7 — the subject of this quiet title case. She also created “access strips” which provided lake access for each lot.

To secure a loan she obtained from the Lumpkin County Bank (“Bank”), Gens gave the Bank a security deed covering all of the land in 1999. Two years later, Gens gave another security deed to the Bank for Lots 0, 7 and 8. That deed mistakenly described the property in dispute as only “part of Lot 7.”
