Acre(Lot)

Discover one of the best waterfront values currently available in The Peninsula at Lake James. This exceptional 0.8 acre homesite offers the rare combination of expansive long range lake and mountain views, a highly desirable level building area, and 102 feet of shoreline along the crystal clear waters of Lake James. Whether you are dreaming of a full time residence or a private mountain lake retreat, this property provides an outstanding canvas for bringing your vision to life. Positioned to capture stunning views across the lake, the homesite features a gently situated building envelope that makes planning and construction easier while maximizing both privacy and scenery. Imagine waking each morning to sparkling water views and ending your evenings with colorful sunsets reflected acro ss the lake and surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. The Peninsula is one of Lake James’ most sought after waterfront communities, known for its natural beauty, upscale homes, and peaceful setting. This lot offers direct waterfront access and is considered dockable, providing the potential for convenient boating, fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding right from your property. A pier permit has not yet been issued and will need to be obtained through Duke Energy, allowing future owners the opportunity to pursue dock approval based on their plans and specifications. The shoreline descends steeply from the homesite to the water, creating elevated views that enhance the property's dramatic lakefront setting. The walk to the shoreline is steep, but the reward is direct access to one of North Carolina’s most beautiful lakes and the opportunity to enjoy everything Lake James has to offer. Waterfront opportunities at this price point are exceptionally rare on Lake James. Over the past 12 months, only four dockable waterfront lots have sold for less than $325,000. With 102 feet of shoreline, breathtaking long range lake views, a level building area, and dock potential pending Duke Energy approval, this property presents a unique opportunity to secure a coveted waterfront homesite before inventory becomes even more limited. Located just minutes from Lake James State Park, Fonta Flora Trail, downtown Morganton, and Marion, this property combines the serenity of mountain lake living with convenient access to dining, shopping, breweries, hiking trails, and outdoor recreation. Spend your days boating on more than 6,800 acres of pristine water, exploring miles of nearby trails, or simply relaxing and taking in the incredible scenery from your future deck. Please note that no septic permit has been issued for this lot. Buyers are encouraged to complete their own due diligence regarding septic evaluation, pier permitting, and building plans. Opportunities to find a waterfront homesite with long range views, a level building area, generous shoreline frontage, and dock potential in The Peninsula are increasingly rare. Whether you envision a luxury lakefront estate, a weekend getaway, or a legacy property to enjoy for generations, this homesite offers the location, views, and potential to create something truly special on Lake James.
