A fully permitted pier with a floating dock and boat lift is already in place, allowing you to begin enjoying direct access to the water from day one. This valuable feature makes the property especially appealing because, as of July 1, 2026, Duke Energy is no longer issuing dock permits for unimproved lots. The property offers approximately 0.22 acres of usable land, along with an additional 0.6369 acre extending into the lake. The sellers have thoughtfully evaluated the property with consideration for the flood zone and identified the optimal area for building. They also have a proposed building plan designed to complement the homesite, which will be shared with the new owner and may provide a helpful starting point for bringing their vision to life. Electricity, public water, and sewer are available, helping simplify the planning and construction process. Picture mornings overlooking the water, afternoons spent boating or fishing, and evenings relaxing beside the lake. Whether you are planning a full-time waterfront residence, a peaceful weekend retreat, or a place where family and friends can gather, this property offers the setting and lake access to make it possible. Cleared Lake Hickory lots with fully permitted docks are increasingly difficult to find. Bring your builder, explore the possibilities, and create the waterfront lifestyle you have been waiting for—with the pier, dock, and boat lift already in place.

Tucked on a private, wooded homesite in the gated Paradise Harbor community, this 2026 new-construction modern farmhouse pairs timeless curb appeal — sage-green board-and-batten siding, natural wood accents, stone details, and a welcoming covered front porch — with a rare bonus: a DEEDED BOAT SLIP in the community marina, putting Lake Rhodhiss right at your fingertips. Step inside to a light-filled, two-story great room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace. Ten-foot ceilings, engineered hardwood throughout, and decorative wood beams create a sense of warmth and elevated style at every turn. At the heart of the home, the open chef's kitchen is a showstopper — a Calacatta quartz waterfall island, walk-in pantry, gas range, and a full KitchenAid appliance package (refrigerator, wall oven and microwave tower, and dishwasher) — and a convenient wet bar with beverage refrigerator makes entertaining effortless.

You'll also find a dedicated study/office, an entry mud room, a full guest bath with shower, clever under-stair storage, and a laundry room complete with a built-in pet shower.
