Remarks:
Dockable Waterfront Living with Main Channel Views on Lake Hickory Positioned on the main channel of Lake Hickory, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick home offers 2,249 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with long-range, south-facing water views and a highly desirable dockable shoreline. Located in the established Northlakes community, this property delivers the rare combination of scenic lake exposure, flexible interior space, and freedom from heavy HOA restrictions. Inside, the home features a functional layout designed to take full advantage of its waterfront setting. Multiple living areas provide versatility for everyday living, entertaining, or hosting guests. The finished basement expands the usable square footage and offers excellent flexibility for recreation, hobbies, media space, or overflow sleeping arrangements, making it equally appealing for full-time living or part-time use. Outdoor living is a standout feature of this property. Enjoy peaceful mornings and evening sunsets overlooking Lake Hickory’s main channel, with expansive water views that create a true sense of retreat. Direct lake access with an approved dock permit from Duke Energy adds significant value and opens the door to boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, and future dock installation—an increasingly rare opportunity on Lake Hickory. Recent improvements add confidence and long-term value, including a new heat pump installed in 2024 with a 10-year warranty. Preventative grading and drainage work has been completed at the rear of the home and is backed by warranty through Storm Water Management, providing added peace of mind for waterfront ownership. The Northlakes community offers optional HOA participation at just $100 per year, granting access to a community beach and boat launch while allowing homeowners to maintain flexibility and autonomy. The property is accessed by a private road serving only three homes, enhancing privacy and reducing traffic. There is no road maintenance agreement currently in place. Whether you are searching for a Lake Hickory waterfront home, a dockable lake property in Hickory NC, or a versatile residence that blends scenic views with everyday comfort, this home presents a compelling opportunity. Ideal for primary living, second-home use, or investment potential, waterfront properties with approved dock permits and main-channel views remain among the most sought-after offerings in the Lake Hickory market. Opportunities like this—brick construction, finished basement, dockable shoreline, and panoramic lake views—are increasingly limited. This is a chance to secure a premier Lake Hickory setting with flexibility, privacy, and lasting value.
