$679,000
Community: Nebo in McDowell County
Perched on the shores of pristine Lake James, this premium lot offers sweeping views of Hawksbill and Shortoff Mountains in the Linville Gorge, level waterfront with a private beach, and a double-decker, double-slip dock with jet ski ports — already built and permitted. That's a major advantage: as of July 1, 2026, Duke Energy no longer approves new dock permits on lots without an existing home (per Duke Energy Lake Service). Future Lake James buyers will have to build first, then wait on approval. Here, it's done. The site work is done too — driveway and building pad cleared, shared well in place, underground power for unobstructed views. Amenities include a pool, boat storage, lake access, and a community dock. Short-term rentals are permitted. Just bring your vision — and your sunscreen.
