Morganton, NC 28655
Description
Experience Lake James living from the ground up on this rare, waterfront homesite in sought-after Southpointe. This 0.96-acre lot at 1590 Hawks Pointe Lane offers a gently sloping, wooded setting that naturally lends itself to a luxury home with a walkout lower level and expansive outdoor living to capture serene cove views and year-round privacy. With its generous width, topography, and utilities available at the street, the site is a ready canvas for an architect-designed retreat that feels both elevated and effortless. This lot is also listed under a proposed construction listing at MLS#4354550. Tucked into a quiet cove, the property includes an existing private dock, giving you immediate access to boating, paddling, fishing, and sunset cruises without ever leaving your backyard. The slope from street to shoreline allows for a dramatic arrival at road level, then an easy flow down through terraces, covered porches, and potentially an infinity-edge pool toward the water's edge. Mature trees frame the homesite and help preserve a sense of seclusion while still placing you in one of Lake James' most established communities. Located in the Southpointe neighborhood on the shores of Lake James, this lot is surrounded by custom homes and thoughtfully maintained common areas. Community amenities include a lakeside pool, clubhouse, and walking trails, giving owners multiple ways to enjoy the lake lifestyle beyond their own dock. Wide, well-kept streets and carefully curated architecture create a cohesive streetscape that supports long-term property values and a true neighborhood feel instead of a transient vacation environment. Southpointe's covenants and architectural guidelines are designed to protect both aesthetics and investment. The community is restricted to single-family residences, with minimum square footage requirements and an architectural review process for all new construction and significant exterior changes. No manufactured homes, RVs as permanent residences, or commercial uses are allowed. Setback, design, and material standards encourage high-quality construction and a harmonious look among homes, while still allowing each owner to express an individual style. Everyday conveniences are within easy reach. Morganton's shops, restaurants, and services are a short drive away, with regional destinations like Hickory and Asheville accessible for work, health care, and entertainment. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to state parks, hiking and biking trails, and other Lake James access points, creating a four-season playground at your doorstep. Yet when you return home, the cove setting and wooded surroundings bring a sense of calm that feels far from busy corridors. For buyers, architects, and builders seeking a premier Lake James homesite with a balance of privacy, community, and design control, this Southpointe lot is an outstanding opportunity. Bring your builder, your plans, or your imagination and design a home that steps down the hillside to the water, with walls of glass, generous porches, and indoor-outdoor spaces that make the most of this special setting. Schedule a walking tour of the property to experience the lay of the land and begin envisioning your own custom retreat on Lake James.
