About this home
Welcome to your ultimate mountain-lake escape in the heart of downtown Lake Lure! With two bedrooms and one bath on the main level, this enchanting cottage perfectly blends nostalgic cabin vibes with modern conveniences, offering an unbeatable location and an effortless, turnkey lifestyle. A deeded easement to the lake access with ownership of the dock provides the perfect launchpad for peaceful days spent kayaking or canoeing. The interior boasts a stone gas fireplace, modern appliances, LVP flooring and an enclosed patio perfect for all seasons. Low-maintenance exteriors and adorable curb appeal make this perfect for a second home retreat or rental property. Offered turn-key! The upper level is below 7 feet, so not included in square footage, but it has two bonus rooms and a living room. The upstairs bath was added later and unpermitted. The property includes two parcels; the lot behind the home is where the septic is located and is in a flood zone, but the house is not.
