Set on 3.71 private acres in the gated Waters Edge community, this rare Lake James homesite offers approximately 300 feet of level shoreline on one of the lake's quietest coves — calm, clear water perfect for swimming, kayaking, and paddleboarding from your own backyard. This is a non-dockable lot. The wooded, gently sloping site is ready to build on or come enjoy as is: driveway, parking, and boat trailer storage already in place, soil test on record, and the Fonta Flora State Trail running directly along the back edge of the property. Underground power, high-speed internet, and city water are available. Short-term rentals are allowed. Adjacent to 47.99 acres of protected green space, this lot feels more like a private nature preserve than a typical lakefront homesite. The community beach and a nearby marina with a public boat launch keep the full lake experience within easy reach. Morganton is 15 minutes away; Asheville under an hour. Seclusion, acreage, and a front-row seat to Lake James — all in one place. NC Agent Owned
