This property is truly build-ready, featuring electricity, septic (county approved) system, and a well already in place, saving the buyer significant time and expense. A gravel driveway has been cut in, and much of the land has been thoughtfully cleared to provide an ideal building site and enhance lake views. The lot is gently rolling and relatively flat to the water, making it well-suited for a variety of home designs. Photos show your homes future view of Norris Lake in the winter months, when lake has been lowered, and also the summer months when Norris Lake is at full Pool or the 1020 elevation. Dock does not convey. Located in a desirable subdivision, residents enjoy access to a beautifully maintained community park with a fire pit, grills, and picnic tables, along with a private concrete boat launch and day dock exclusively for residents. Fiber internet is available, adding modern convenience to this peaceful lake setting. A swim dock WAS previously permitted and in place, (no longer on the property) offering insight into a future dock potential (buyer to verify). Simply obtain your building permit and start building - this lakefront opportunity is ready for your vision and won't last long.
