Lakefront Living at Its Finest on Watauga Lake
Tucked away on a secluded peninsula in an exclusive enclave, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 3-full-bath lake house offers the ultimate Watauga Lake lifestyle. Built in 1997 and thoughtfully upgraded over the years (exterior in 2007, full interior remodel in 2018, and fresh 2023 updates including complete exterior repainting, professional hillside landscaping by Mountain View Nursery, and a new Bosch dual-fuel heat pump system), the home sits on a gentle roll to the water with direct access to your private 30-foot covered aluminum dock, swim platform, ladder, and electric hookup.
Step inside to an inviting open floor plan crowned by a tongue-and-groove pine cathedral ceiling with exposed beams. Panoramic windows and Andersen low-E glass frame sweeping views of the lake and mountains. A gas-log fireplace anchors the living area, which flows seamlessly into the custom chef’s kitchen featuring maple cabinets, quartz countertops, a large center island, stainless-steel Samsung appliances, porcelain tile floors, and a built-in window seat with extra storage. A triple sliding glass door opens to the main deck–perfect for morning coffee, al fresco meals, or simply soaking in the scenery.
Up a few steps you’ll find three tastefully appointed bedrooms and two full baths, including a private master suite that feels like its own serene retreat. The spa-like master bath boasts a large tiled shower with bench, dual shower heads, quartz vanity, and skylight. Down on the lower level, entertainment takes center stage: a media room with mirrored wet bar, a spacious game/billiard room with porcelain tile and mirrored accent wall, a full guest bath, and a large bunk room ideal for family and friends. A covered lower terrace, workshop, and additional patio space complete this level.
Outside, the architecturally designed screened pavilion (added in 2010) is a showstopper–pine-paneled with cathedral ceiling, gas fireplace, porcelain tile, and custom heart-pine buffet. It’s perfect for year-round gatherings (Plexiglas panels available for cooler months). Multiple decks and patios, all rebuilt with pressure-treated lumber, provide endless spots to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the gentle slope leading down to your private dock for fishing, skiing, boating, or a peaceful evening with a glass of wine.
With recent updates, high-end finishes throughout (Andersen windows and doors, quartz counters, LED lighting, tankless hot water heater, and more), and a prime lakefront setting, this home is truly turn-key and ready for its next chapter of lakeside memories.
