536 Harborside Drive, Nebo, NCVideo Tour of 536 Harborside Drive, Nebo, NC.
Perhaps the BEST DEAL on Lake James... this kind of waterfront home at this price is RARE! Located in the sprawling and beautiful gated Arbor community, with estimated travel of less than 2 hours from Charlotte and under 30 minutes to downtown Marion and Morganton. This home features custom craftsmanship showcasing vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings and a nearly all-glass back wall, offering open-water views from nearly every room. On the main level, enjoy the spacious kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Also on the main level is a dreamy primary suite with a walk-in closet, back deck access, stunning VIEWS, vaulted ceiling, and an ensuite bath. The main floor also includes a laundry room with plenty of space to create a large pantry area, a half bath, private office, and formal dining room. Downstairs, spread out and entertain with ease in the family room and game room, along with two bedrooms plus a large flex room currently used as a 4TH BEDROOM. Buy with confidence... this home already has recent well water and pest inspections, an updated HVAC system, fresh full interior paint, electrical updates, dock and lift improvements, and septic repairs. As beautiful and well laid out as the interior is, the true STAR of the SHOW is the home's upper and lower decks... INCREDIBLE VIEWS, an easy, short distance to the water, and a covered floating dock! Extras to note: Coming fully FURNISHED, attached carport, real hardwood floors, fire pit area, and a covered gazebo by the water. Enjoy low HOAs, NO water or septic bills, and NO city taxes. This home can be a SHORT-TERM RENTAL, meaning your DREAM HOME CAN MORE THAN PAY FOR ITSELF! (Not currently used as a rental)
