LUXURY MAIN-CHANNEL LAKE HICKORY WATERFRONT HOME—NO CITY TAXES! Experience exceptional waterfront living from this distinctive custom home situated on nearly two private acres with approximately 285 feet of main-channel shoreline. Located outside the Hickory city limits yet only minutes from town, the property combines expansive lake views, mature landscaping, exceptional privacy, and extraordinary outdoor living. The waterfront infrastructure is one of the property’s most impressive features. Positioned in deep water along Lake Hickory’s main channel, the substantial two-level private dock provides dependable boating access during normal lake-level fluctuations. The dock features all-aluminum construction supported by galvanized-steel posts, offering exceptional durability and reduced maintenance compared with conventional wood-framed docks. A 15,000-pound hydraulic platform boat lift with a Trex-finished platform allows the owner to lower the boat and conveniently get underway directly from the property. The dock’s second level provides additional space for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying unobstructed lake views. Quality construction continues throughout the home’s exterior with HardiePlank fiber-cement siding, traditional hard-coat stucco, Ipe hardwood decking, wrought-iron railings, extensive retaining walls, elevated mechanical equipment, and a commercial-style rainwater management and drainage system designed to direct stormwater throughout the property. The home was designed for comfortable one-level everyday living and entertaining. The main floor brings the kitchen, dining area, and great room together around the lake views and includes a spacious primary suite with a large walk-in closet (with stackable washer/dryer) and a beautifully appointed bath. Vaulted and beamed ceilings, Brazilian cherry and other hardwood flooring, extensive custom cabinetry, and detailed millwork reflect the craftsmanship found throughout the residence. A private upper-level guest bedroom/office with a half bath provides comfortable accommodations for family and visitors. The lower level expands the home’s entertaining and specialty spaces with an additional bedroom suite, a dedicated home theater professionally designed and installed by Audio Advice of Charlotte, a climate-controlled wine room, a dedicated hobby and gift-wrapping room, built-ins, additional laundry connections, a dog-washing station, and a separate climate-controlled secure storage room. An ERV fresh-air ventilation system further reflects the attention given to the home’s mechanical systems and indoor comfort. Outdoor living includes covered decks and patios, an outdoor kitchen, a wood-burning fireplace, expansive lawn and gathering areas, and a natural connection between the home, shoreline, and dock. The spacious private grounds provide abundant room for pets to enjoy the outdoors, while the lower-level dog-washing station makes the home especially accommodating for pet owners. Whether enjoying morning coffee overlooking the lake, entertaining beside the outdoor fireplace, allowing pets to enjoy the expansive grounds, or leaving the deep-water dock for a day of boating, this property offers an exceptional opportunity to experience the Lake Hickory lifestyle every day!

TWO RESIDENCES • 7.85 ACRES • POOL • POND • SEPARATE FLEX BUILDING • NO HOA! Some properties are beautiful. Others offer possibilities that are nearly impossible to recreate. Set on 7.85 acres in Newton, this distinctive property combines a character-filled 4-bedroom, 4-bath historic home with approximately 4,013 square feet of finished living space, a separate approximately 880-square-foot second residence, an additional approximately 900-square-foot detached flex/business building, a swimming pool, pond, greenhouse, gazebo and extraordinary established gardens. At the heart of the property is an 1894 farmhouse that has been loved, expanded and adapted for modern living while retaining the warmth and character that make an older home special. A welcoming wraparound porch sets the tone—a place made for morning coffee, long conversations and looking out over grounds that have taken decades to establish. Inside, generous living spaces provide room to gather as well as room to retreat, with four bedrooms, four baths and additional recreation space in the basement. This is not a newly constructed house designed to look as though it has a history. It has one. But what truly separates this property from others is everything beyond the main house. A separate second residence creates an exceptional opportunity for dual living arrangements. Long-term guests or co-occupants can live just steps away while maintaining the independence and privacy of a home of their own.The additional detached approximately 900-square-foot building expands the possibilities again. Previously used in connection with a home-based business, it offers flexible space for a studio, office, creative workspace, hobby area, or other use permitted by zoning. And then there are the grounds. Nearly eight acres surround the homes with mature landscaping, and gardens developed over decades. More than 500 named and hybridized daylilies join roses, perennials, blueberries, elderberries, figs and other established plantings to create a property that changes with the seasons. A pond, gazebo and greenhouse add to the setting, while the swimming pool creates a private place for summer afternoons and outdoor entertaining. There is room here for gardening, pets, hobbies, recreation—or simply the luxury of having space around you. Practical features include both city water and a well, generator capability and no HOA, adding another layer of flexibility rarely found in properties of this type. The location offers convenient access to Newton, Hickory, shopping, services, and major routes. The property is located adjacent to a high school and near a middle school; buyers are encouraged to visit the property at different times of day to experience the setting for themselves. After more than three decades with the same owners, this is a property that cannot be summed up by bedroom count or square footage alone. It could become a private multi-dwelling compound. It could offer a main residence plus separate space for work, art, or creative pursuits. It could give long-term guests or live-in staff the rare combination of independence and proximity. Or it could simply become home to someone who wants acreage, gardens, water, a pool, historic character and room to create something entirely their own. Two residences. Nearly eight acres. Three distinct structures. Pool, pond, and extraordinary gardens. No HOA. One property with possibilities that would be exceptionally difficult to recreate today.
