About this home

Long-range water views and a fully equipped dock setup make this waterfront lot in SouthPointe stand out. Located at 4981 Camellia Drive (Lot 228), the property overlooks a quiet, protected cove with a view that opens up beautifully across Lake James. A platform dock, floating dock, and jet ski ramp are already in place—offering immediate access to the water without the wait. The setting provides both visual appeal and calm conditions for swimming, paddling, and boating. SouthPointe is one of the most established communities on Lake James and the only one with public sewer, along with high-speed fiber internet. Amenities include a lakeside clubhouse, pool, and walking trails. Convenient to downtown Morganton, where you’ll find a growing selection of restaurants, breweries, shops, and daily essentials. Well-positioned waterfront lots with this combination of view, dock, and build-readiness are becoming increasingly limited on Lake James.
