Located on beautiful Lake Rhodhiss, you'll enjoy miles of shoreline perfect for boating, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings. Craftsmanship shines throughout, from the handmade vintage leaded glass front entry created by Asheville's Bender Gallery to the custom maple stair and fireplace mantel accents, milled from trees harvested right from the property. Thoughtfully designed by the original owners with no wasted space, the home features a desirable main-level living layout with beautiful hardwood floors and inviting gathering spaces. The finished basement offers an ideal guest or in-law suite, providing plenty of room for family and friends while maintaining privacy. Enjoy the warmth and charm of two fireplaces, including a gas fireplace in the main living area and a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter in the downstairs living room. With the addition of the neighboring lot you will have around 2.5 scenic acres, and you'll enjoy exceptional privacy, gardens with something blooming throughout the seasons, fruit trees and berry bushes, plus multiple outdoor entertaining areas. The three-season sunroom/screened porch feels like a treehouse overlooking the lake, making it the perfect place to unwind. Harbor Ridge is known for its welcoming community, where neighbors wave as they pass and residents enjoy amenities including a community pavilion, lake access, and boat/RV storage. Best of all, you're conveniently located about an hour from Charlotte, Asheville, and Boone, giving you easy access to healthcare, groceries, restaurants, and the picturesque Valdese Lakeside Park—all while enjoying the peaceful lake lifestyle every day. This is a home where thoughtful design, timeless craftsmanship, and an incredible setting come together to create something truly special.
