Rare 35-acre waterfront retreat on Lyon's Creek, Lake Gaston. Historic farmland from before the lake was built. Renovated 5-bedroom home blends timeless character with modern comfort, featuring a main-level primary suite, new metal roof, new HVAC systems for each floor, Andersen windows and doors, Hardie Plank siding, and luxury vinyl plank flooring. Gorgeous waterfront views and quiet natural beauty surround an exceptional boathouse, dock, and deck for relaxing in sun or shade, or enjoying sunsets at cocktail hour. Just minutes by boat to waterfront restaurants and seasonal fireworks, yet tucked away from the main channel where birds, frogs, and rustling trees replace the sounds of boat traffic. Watch deer, herons, and other wildlife from your peaceful lakeside oasis. Updated kitchen features vaulted ceilings, quartz counters, chef's range, two refrigerators, and stylish finishes, while multiple living areas provide room for gathering or quiet retreat. Full-length screened porch invites long afternoons reading, napping, games, or taking in the water. Detached garage with upper level is ideal for workshop, studio, office, hobby space, home business, or future guest/additional living. Heating, cooling, electricity, and water already in place for easy conversion. Conveniently 1.5 hours from the Triangle and Richmond, equally suited for weekend escapes or full-time living. Also offers destination property potential for weddings, private events, or short-term rentals. High-speed 500 Mbps fiber internet extends throughout house, garage, and boathouse, a premium lake feature. Option fully furnished, with boat, for immediate enjoyment, turnkey. Rare combination of privacy, undeveloped acreage, and waterfront. Your own natural haven, future family compound or legacy estate.
