About this home
Discover the opportunity to build your dream home on Lot 86 Crestview Drive South, nestled within the prestigious, gated community of The Peninsula at Lake James, with two convenient entrances for easy access. This property benefits from access to a community well and an already-installed three-bedroom septic system, offering a head start for future construction. Tucked within a peaceful cove, this non-dockable waterfront lot offers a tranquil setting ideally suited for launching kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards right from your own backyard, providing a quiet, low-traffic alternative to open-water frontage while still delivering direct water access and serene views. The building site is set back down a gentle 250-foot driveway that winds through the woods, positioning your future home as close to the water as possible while maintaining privacy and seclusion. The Peninsula is known for its scenic lake views, striking entrance gate, and impressive landscaping. From the community pool, stone steps lead down to the lake, providing access to the community dock and swim platform, while a secure boat and trailer storage area offers added convenience for water enthusiasts. Short-term rentals are permitted within the community, offering added flexibility and investment potential. Ideally located just minutes from I-40 between Asheville and Charlotte, this homesite delivers the perfect balance of privacy, natural beauty, and convenient access to everything Lake James has to offer.
