For Sale $1,299,999
Where thoughtful design, custom craftsmanship, and true lakefront living come together effortlessly. Set on a private, wooded ~1.5-acre waterfront homesite framed by tall pines in the gated Paradise Harbor community on Lake Rhodhiss, this 2026 new-construction modern farmhouse showcases sea-glass blue-green board-and-batten and lap siding with white trim, a stone base, dark architectural shingle roof, and barn-style light fixtures, with a welcoming covered entry. Enjoy direct water access: a 6-ft-wide concrete path winds through the trees from the home down to the lakeshore — easily traveled by golf cart or electric vehicle — and a private dock is permitted, will be installed by the builder in late October 2026, and conveys with the home. Inside, a light-filled two-story great room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace. Ten-foot main-level ceilings, engineered hardwood, and decorative wood beams add warmth and elevated style throughout. The open chef's kitchen is a showstopper — quartz waterfall island, walk-in pantry, gas range, a luxury GE Café appliance package in matte white, and a wet bar with wine/beverage cooler — and the kitchen, dining area, great room, and primary suite all enjoy beautiful lake views, as does the screened rear porch. A delightful surprise in the main-level living area: a whimsical built-in, house-shaped nook with interior lighting — versatile as a cozy pet nook, a children's toy nook, or a playful hideaway. The main level centers on a private owner's suite overlooking the lake — a spa-inspired retreat with soaking tub, walk-in shower, private water closet, and a generous walk-in closet. Also on the main: a dedicated study/office, mud room, full guest bath, and a laundry room with a built-in pet shower. Upstairs (9-ft ceilings): two bedrooms share a stylish Jack-and-Jill bath while a third enjoys its own private bath and walk-in closet, plus a large open loft and a second laundry room. Quartz vanities, LED lighting, and custom wood shelving in white melamine complete every space — no wire shelving here. Outdoors, relax on the screened rear porch with lake views, gather around the fire pit on a stamped-concrete patio, and enjoy a side-entry two-car garage with wood-look doors and comfortable side parking. The garage features insulated walls. Built with the details that matter: dual electric heat-pump HVAC systems (one per level); an owned, buried propane tank serving the range, fireplace, and water heater; and an installed electric generator. Additional comforts include a hot-water recirculation system, a certified radon mitigation system, fully automated irrigation, and switched exterior outlets at all four corners for easy holiday lighting. Ideally located minutes to I-40 between Morganton and Hickory, and about an hour from Charlotte, Asheville, and Blowing Rock. A rare opportunity to own a custom lakefront home where modern luxury meets everyday comfort on Lake Rhodhiss. Square footage approximate; buyer to verify. Schedule your private showing today!
