About this home

Located in the premier Southpointe Community of Lake James & nestled within the serene sought after Sherman’s Cove, this strategically placed (on 2.21 acres) & completely remodeled lakefront home is a work of art. You’ll love entertaining with the open floor concept or out on the large private deck overlooking the lake. Next, follow the wooden boardwalk from your spacious backyard to your private boat dock and gazebo. The kitchen boasts custom cabinets, granite countertops, a large island, & brand new appliances. The unique master bath offers a large dressing/closet area, double sinks, & a walk-in tile shower. An unfinished basement with roughed-in plumbing provides additional space & has unlimited potential. Located between Asheville & Hickory, a scenic 10-mile drive places you on I-40, or in Historic Downtown Morganton where you’ll find an array of restaurants, professional services, parks & entertainment. This stunning 4-bedroom (2 on main floor), 3.5 bath lakefront home is the one. In addition, all flooring on the main level (White Oak Select and Tile) is brand new as well as the plumbing, electric, appliances, custom cabinets, granite, sinks, commodes, tankless water heater, most doors (including garage doors), and windows (Quaker and Therma-Tru). The oven is electric with a gas top plus there is an underground propane tank (1,000 gallons) which is owned by the seller.
