This inviting lakefront home captures the essence of lake living—offering privacy, flexibility, and unforgettable views at every turn. Step inside and you’re immediately greeted by a warm, comfortable interior paired with stunning, wide-open water views that set the tone for the entire home.
Enjoy coffee with glowing sunrises and unwinding each evening with spectacular sunsets, all from your own backyard. Mature perennials and natural landscaping surround the home, creating a serene, tucked-away feel.
A standout feature is the grandfathered 30-foot setback - an increasingly rare advantage that opens the door to potential future expansion and added value.
The lower level offers private living quarters with a kitchenette, bedroom, and full bath—and could easily be reconfigured to add a fourth bedroom, enhancing both functionality and income potential.
Outdoors, the covered dock becomes your personal lakeside retreat—ideal for relaxing, entertaining, and soaking in the expansive water views, with dependable year-round depth.
Added benefits include public water and sewer (no well or septic), low Lincoln County taxes, and no HOA. Even better, there are no short-term rental restrictions, giving you maximum flexibility for personal use or investment.
Conveniently located just a short drive from Charlotte Douglas International Airport, you’ll enjoy easy access without sacrificing the peaceful charm of lakefront living.
All these factors add up to significant potential—making it an exceptional choice for a primary residence, vacation getaway, or income-producing asset.
