Lake Home Active Under Contract

What happens when you take an incredibly well-built home and give it a few modern updates? You get a better-than-new Lake-front home at a fraction of the cost! Wake up to the shimmer of Lookout Shoals Lake, where the water is wide and peaceful and framed by wooded coves. Known locally as Lake Lookout, this 1,300-acre reservoir along the Catawba River is one of North Carolina's best-kept secrets. With nearly 40% of its shoreline preserved and the rest dotted with spacious homesites, the lake feels open, natural, and unhurried. Residents enjoy boating, kayaking, jet skiing, fishing, and sunset cruising, all without the crowds of larger lakes. This home is so well built!! Just needs a little cosmetic updating to make it yours. This lake-front gem is tucked in a private, beautifully maintained setting at the end of a dead-end street. Make this custom-built home yours and embrace the year-round big water views and a lifestyle that feels like vacation-every single day. Enjoy easy one-level living, a full-length screened-in back deck to take advantage of your private water views, plus a walk-out finished basement with over 800 heated square feet for guests, hobbies, and extra living space. The basement area cannot count towards square footage, however, due to the ceiling height of 6'10*. The drop ceiling could be raised if desired. Every inch of this well-built, lovingly cared-for home reflects quality and comfort. Whether you're searching for a primary residence, a weekend escape, or a short-term rental investment, this property delivers unbeatable value for lake living under $500K. And when you're ready for a round of golf or dinner with friends, Rock Barn Country Club is just 9 minutes away and Charlotte about 1 hour for your out-of-town visitors. SELLER WILL OFFER THE BUYER MONEY BACK AT CLOSING TOWARDS COSMETIC UPDATES WITH AN ACCEPTABLE OFFER!
