Four bedrooms, two full baths, all on one level. No stairs to climb. The porch runs the entire front of the house. It's covered and deep enough for real furniture, not just a couple of rocking chairs stuck by the door. Inside, the kitchen opens right into the living room, so whoever's cooking is still part of the conversation. Stainless appliances including a gas range, wood cabinets, and a double sink under a window. The peninsula has room to pull up a couple of stools. The home was built in 2009 on just over half an acre in Burke County, with no city taxes to be paid every year. Vinyl siding is new as of 2025 and conveys with a lifetime warranty to the next owner. Heat pump and central air both date to 2021. Water heater is electric. Public water through Icard Township Water Department, and the septic system was permitted through Burke County for four bedrooms. That gas stove is the only thing on propane. Everything else runs electric, so the tank lasts a good while. The tank is leased through James Oxygen and new owners will have to establish the account. An architectural shingle roof is original to the 2009 build, but has no disclosed concerns. A large storage shed conveys with the property and the side driveway has 30 and 50 amp breakers for RV Storage. The back deck is screened and plenty of room in the yard for a garden, fire pit or recreation.

New Price! Set on 3.71 private acres in the gated Waters Edge community, this rare Lake James homesite offers a large, level waterfront on one of the lake's quietest coves — calm, clear, wake-free water perfect for swimming, kayaking, and paddleboarding for miles right from your own backyard, with the cove opening up quickly into the main body of the lake. Tucked into an environmentally protected, no-wake, no-thru-traffic cove, the setting feels private and undisturbed, with no boats passing by. This is a non-dockable lot, and the cove is shallow and recedes with the seasonal winter drawdown — in summer, though, there's room to tie up a small boat or jet skis right at the shoreline, making this an ideal fit for a low-key, hands-in-the-water lake life. The wooded, gently sloping site is ready to build on or enjoy as-is: driveway, parking, and boat trailer storage already in place, soil test on record for septic, and the Fonta Flora State Trail easement running directly along the back edge of the property. Underground power, high-speed internet, and city water are available. Short-term rentals are allowed. Adjacent to 47.99 acres of protected green space, this lot feels more like a private nature preserve than a typical lakefront homesite. The community beach, a nearby marina and a public boat launch keep the full lake experience within easy reach for anyone wanting to get out on the water. Morganton is 15 minutes away; Asheville under an hour. Seclusion, acreage, and a front-row seat to Lake James — all in one place. NC Agent Owned.
