About this home
Escape to the Mountains — Steps from Lake James
Nestled within the gated Pisgah Preserve at Lake James, this stunning 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath square log home sits on 1.92 private acres with sweeping long-range views of South Mountain that will take your breath away every single day.
Wake up to mountain vistas from your primary suite, then step onto one of two expansive decks to watch the morning light roll across the ridgelines. The soaring living room — anchored by a cozy propane fireplace and framed by floor-to-ceiling windows and double sliding doors — brings the outdoors in, making those panoramic mountain and lake-area views the true centerpiece of the home.
Just one to two miles from the sparkling shores of Lake James and Paddy's Creek State Park, adventure is always within reach — kayaking, fishing, swimming, and hiking trails are practically at your doorstep. Pisgah National Forest's half a million acres of wilderness begins just steps from your backyard, while Fonta Flora Park, Fonta Flora Brewery, and nearby wineries round out the lifestyle perfectly.
Inside, the home is every bit as impressive as its surroundings — custom cabinetry, granite countertops, exposed wooden beams, hardwood and tile floors, and a fully finished walkout basement with an entertainment area, office, full bath, and a flexible bonus room that functions beautifully as a fourth bedroom. The main level offers easy one-floor living with the primary suite, dining area, kitchen, and laundry all on one floor, while two additional bedrooms upstairs are perfect for family or guests.
Investors and vacation rental buyers, take note: short-term rentals are permitted in Pisgah Preserve, making this property an exceptional VRBO or Airbnb opportunity. With its stunning views, proximity to Lake James, and access to endless outdoor recreation, demand for a retreat like this is year-round.
Whether you're looking for a full-time mountain residence, a weekend getaway, or an income-producing investment, this property delivers the rare combination of breathtaking views, unbeatable location, and refined mountain character — all within a private, gated community.
