Custom lakefront home on Lake James. Located in the highly sought-after SouthPointe neighborhood in Morganton, NC. This builder's own custom home was thoughtfully designed and built to maximize water views, lake access, and entertaining space. This property offers one of the rarest features on the lake, a gently sloping walkable approach to the shoreline and dock, on the main channel. Amazing outdoor entertaining features include not just one 16'x36' covered cedar porch overlooking the lake from above, but also another 16'x36' bluestone patio with a large wood-burning fireplace, plus an outdoor shower with a private changing area. The main level features two bedrooms with en-suites, two home offices for work or study spaces, both of which have closets and could be used as bedrooms. The living room features a beautiful wood-burning stone fireplace to relax by. Both levels have full kitchens, two bedrooms, and dining areas inside or out. Take a walk down to the private over-the-water gazebo and dock, which were replaced in 2025; the dock has two slips, one of which has a boat lift. on a .59-acre lot with approximately 275 ft of waterfront. Plenty of parking outside and in, the home has two garages, with a total of 5 bays. 2 on grade and 3 more under. With its variety of outdoor living spaces, this home provides numerous opportunities to enjoy lake life. whether relaxing on the cedar porch, gathering around the fireplace on the bluestone patio, or entertaining on the water's edge in the gazebo. Designed for comfort and connection, it's a home that's ideal for large or private gatherings and year-round enjoyment. The owner wishes to take all calls personally. Please call the owner to set up all showings.
