Discover an exceptional homesite with sweeping, long-range views in The Arbor at Lake James—one of the lake’s most prestigious and expansive communities. Thoughtfully designed, The Arbor offers scenic walking trails and a private community gathering area, creating a serene and connected mountain-lake lifestyle. There may also be a rare opportunity to secure a boat slip through a current resident, enhancing your access to the water. This premier lot is build-ready, featuring a well already in place and septic lines installed (tank placement required), allowing you to bring your vision to life with ease. The elevated setting captures breathtaking vistas, providing the perfect backdrop for a custom luxury retreat. Curated home plans are available upon request. Set along the pristine shores of Lake James—spanning over 6,500 acres—this property offers an unmatched blend of natural beauty and recreation, from boating and paddleboarding to cycling and hiking. Ideally located just 90 minutes from Charlotte and 45 minutes from Asheville, and moments from the iconic Blue Ridge Parkway, this is mountain-lake living at its finest.
