Alright, here’s the deal… lake houses on High Rock Lake are hard enough to find. One with actual water in front? That’s the unicorn. Sitting on 1.25 acres under towering trees and mature landscaping, this place was built for lake days, pool parties, and “accidentally” having your friends stay way too late. Featuring an in-ground pool, newer major systems, a boat ramp, and a pier permit already in place so you can skip the waiting game and get straight to living the lake life. Whether you’re into boating, entertaining, quiet mornings with coffee by the water, or just want a backyard that feels like a vacation, this one checks a lot of boxes without feeling cookie-cutter. Fair warning: once you sit by the pool and look at the lake, your current house may start feeling a little suspicious. Owner has pier permit for the construction of a new pier. previous pier was lost to a storm. Also property has a concrete boat ramp, but would need to be repaired.

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 water perfect for swimming, kayaking, and paddleboarding from your own backyard. This is a non-dockable lot. The wooded, gently sloping site is ready to build on or come enjoy as is: driveway, parking, and boat trailer storage already in place, soil test on record, and the Fonta Flora State Trail 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 and a nearby marina with a public boat launch keep the full lake experience within easy reach. 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
