Perfectly positioned with a view of Lake Hickory’s main channel, this home offers a lifestyle that blends everyday ease with resort-style relaxation, all within a sought-after golf course community. Inside, you’ll find 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and inviting spaces that make you feel at home the moment you walk in. The living and dining rooms feature coffered ceilings, a cozy gas fireplace, and custom built-ins—all framing views of the lake. The gourmet kitchen is both stylish and functional, with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and a professional-grade stove with 6 burners, 2 ovens, and griddle—ideal for everything from quick breakfasts to memorable gatherings. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat with tray ceilings, two walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath featuring marble tile, jetted tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in shower. On the main level you’ll also find a den (which could serve as a 4th bedroom with closet), a home office, and a second bedroom. Upstairs, an isolated third bedroom suite with full bath offers additional comfort. Step outside and enjoy your own private oasis. A heated saltwater infinity-edge gunite pool with waterfalls and hot tub overlooks the lake, while a charming brick cabana with stone fireplace invites you to gather, unwind, and take in the view. The home is positioned between two additional lots, creating a more secluded retreat where it’s easy to enjoy the soothing water views—rain or shine—and the everyday beauty of nature. Songbirds greet you in the mornings, cardinals and yellow finches play in the pool overflow, and deer, bunnies, and squirrels make frequent appearances. During the holidays, you’ll love watching the lighted boats parade across the water in celebration. Adding to the lifestyle is the separate carriage house/RV building. With its own drive, this 1,697 sq ft heated and cooled space features soaring 18’ ceilings, two levels, and a full bath. The carriage house offers endless possibilities—whether a game room, art studio, workshop, or hobby space. Outside, the deck with brick pillars and aluminum railing overlooks the lake, while a separate fire pit creates the perfect gathering spot. Just behind the building, a short trail leads down to a small beach and the lake, where summer days are filled with fun and relaxation. Life here goes beyond the home itself. As part of this vibrant golf course community, you’ll enjoy exclusive amenities including a members-only boat launch and landing with dock—making lake days simple and convenient. The clubhouse restaurant offers dining with friends and neighbors, adding to the sense of community and ease. And nearby, Wittenburg Access provides even more opportunities with its public boat launch, swim beach, and shaded hiking trails. From resort-style amenities to everyday comforts, this property is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Elegant interiors, peaceful natural surroundings, and a welcoming community make this the perfect place to enjoy life at Lake Hickory.
