Private, 3.7 acre homestead very close to Lake James and downtown Morganton. This charming home is surrounded by a paved circle drive and artful landscaping including a soothing water feature. The interior combines main-level living, an upstairs bedroom and bonus room, ample kitchen and family room, and an unfinished basement ready for your finishing touches. Need space for your lake toys and RV? The huge barn/garage structure has a 12X12 door that allows for indoor RV storage with room for a workshop, carport, and shed storage on both sides. There's a large woodshed and more outdoor storage. In the same area you'll find plenty of room for a fenced in hobby garden or simply more outdoor living space. This property makes a great vacation hideaway as is, but also includes room for more living space by finishing, adding on, or building again to create a generational Lake James retreat. No HOA!
