425 Dockside Drive, Nebo, NCVideo Tour of 425 Dockside Drive, Nebo, NC.
A masterful expression of mountain-modern luxury, this exceptional waterfront residence in The Arbor at Lake James was crafted with an uncompromising dedication to quality and detail. Sweeping lake and mountain vistas unfold from nearly every room, creating a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. Soaring wood-plank ceilings, expansive walls of glass, wide-plank white oak flooring, custom alder cabinetry, live-edge white oak accents, artisan ironwork, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplaces create a home that is both sophisticated and inviting. Perfectly positioned on 245± feet of private shoreline, this newer custom-built retreat seamlessly blends contemporary luxury with the natural beauty of waterfront living. The chef's kitchen is a showcase of exceptional design and function, featuring Bosch 800 Series appliances, quartzite countertops, a hidden walk-in pantry and a custom live-edge white oak island. The private primary suite offers a spa-inspired bath, premium finishes and a covered lakeside deck designed for peaceful mornings and stunning sunset views. Constructed with exceptional attention to detail and designed for both luxury and longevity, the residence features premium materials, advanced climate-control systems, a whole-home generator, integrated security, EV charging capability, and thoughtfully selected upgrades that provide comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind. Every element reflects an unwavering commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and enduring value. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a screened lakeside porch featuring a stone fireplace and built-in heater, an expansive entertaining deck, boulder fire pit, mature landscaping, and a gentle stone pathway leading to the water's edge. A deep-water double-deck dock with HydroHoist boat lift provides immediate access to the crystal-clear waters of Lake James. Offered fully furnished and including the boat, dock, and lift, this extraordinary turnkey property presents a rare opportunity to enjoy one of Lake James' finest waterfront lifestyles from the moment you arrive!
