Perched high on the Hully Gully ridge in coveted 1780 on Lake James, this rustic but light and airy hideaway offers one of the rarest combinations anywhere on the lake—sweeping long-range water and mountain views. Surrounded by mature hardwoods and natural beauty, the setting feels worlds away while connecting you directly to miles of community trails that meander through conservation land and lead directly to a beautiful, waterfront gathering area, Hully Gully Pond, and Camp Lake James—membership included with purchase. It also connects you to miles of trails including the Overmountain Victory Trail, Lake James State Park trails, and future sections of the Fonta Flora Loop trial. Though modest in footprint, this thoughtfully designed three-story home lives large, offering multiple gathering areas and plenty of room to spread out or host guests. Privacy, serenity, and endless recreation come together in this remarkable ridge-top retreat. Short-term rentals are permitted, making this both a peaceful escape and an exceptional investment in one of Lake James’s most sought-after locations.
