A rare opportunity to experience one of Lake Gaston's most exceptional properties in one of its most desirable locations. From the moment you arrive and open the gates, the outside world fades. This property feels cinematic—understated in design yet extraordinary in what it delivers—and is truly meant to be experienced. An old oak tree graces the cleared shoreline, complete with a swing that invites children of all ages to soak in the beauty of this special vantage point. With more than 400 feet of shoreline and a lake-forward floor plan, nearly every space is immersed in long-range panoramic views spanning more than a mile. Located at the mouth of a main-lake cove, the shoreline and double boathouse enjoy the protection of cove waters without sacrificing expansive main-lake views. Enjoy the privacy of 1.38 acres and the freedom of a non-subdivision setting with no HOA, in surroundings not impacted by short-term vacation rentals—a rare combination offering uninterrupted lake living. The heart of the home is the expansive three-season screened porch, a favorite gathering place for family meals, morning coffee, card games, and afternoons spent watching lake life. Thoughtfully designed to balance private retreats with inviting gathering spaces, the home features four bedrooms, each with an en-suite bath, and an open floor plan ideal for creating memories together. Outdoors, there is room to roam and room to breathe. An outdoor shower, firepit, covered patio, multiple decks, and deep-water access create a setting made for entire days spent lakeside. Beautifully designed interiors and furnishings are part of this package, making this offering truly move-in ready and poised to inspire the kind of memories only a property like this can create.
