BEST DEAL ON LAKE NANTAHALA! Cleanest, clearest lake in Western North Carolina. This home has it all when it comes to quiet lakefront living. At 3000' elevation, this three bedroom, two bath home with its own private dock offers stunning lake and mountain views and enjoys moderate temperatures approximately 12-15° lower than the Atlanta area. Located in the gated community of Nantahala Shores in the beautiful setting of a national forest only a short drive from Atlanta, Knoxville, Charlotte and Chattanooga. Only fifteen minutes out of Andrews N.C. This could be your getaway paradise! The public boat launch is located near the community entrance. Excellent rental history!
This unique home offers a two bedroom, one bath main area with an open kitchen and living area with a fireplace, leathered granite countertops, a dining and living room with decks to enjoy the views and entertaining hummingbirds. The Kitchen/Dining/Living area and hallways have beautiful hickory hardwood floors and solid wood six panel doors. Newer stainless kitchen appliances in 2020. Newly installed insulated double sliding doors providing for beautiful views. Bedrooms have new carpet, all walls resurfaced with cedar and pine decor.
A garage and lower suite was added to the home in 1995. The lower suite has its own private entrance at the front of the home and double French doors with sidelights on the lakeside with its own covered rear deck, wired railings and access to the main residence via spiral stairways and a beautiful view of the lake and mountains. It is essentially a large suite bedroom/kitchenette with full bath and bonus sleeping quarters - great for your guests! All recently remodeled. Vinyl plank flooring and very nicely appointed furniture.
The garage provides a parking space, a workshop with an additional laundry room. Parking is a premium in the mountains. There is space for two-three additional parking areas outside plus an additional covered area beside the garage for a small boat, motorcycles, jet skis or could be used simply as a covered deck for entertaining.
The lower area is air controlled with the main HVAC unit and has an extra 450 sq. ft. of unfinished area currently being used as a laundry and storage. This area could be used as additional living area. (Note: this is not counted in the calculations of square ft living area.)
There are seemingly endless covered and uncovered outside decks for your enjoyment. Standing seam copper colored roof coverings over rear decks, as well a newer 30-year laminated premium shingle roof on the main roof. There are well-proportioned stairways to the lower decks, firepit and dock. A working tram to provide you a ride to the dock and decks at the lake. There are many various fruit trees, blueberry bushes, grape vines and flowers enhancing the landscape. There is a firepit area halfway to the dock that is a highlight for many guests.
Lake Nantahala is one of the cleanest lakes in the S.E. US. The majority of this lake is situated in forestry boundaries. Limited number of homes on the 40 some miles of shoreline. Enjoy boating, swimming, hiking, and rafting on the lake or local rivers or just relax and enjoy the priceless views!

What the owner loves about this home
Large panoramic view of lake from home. Easy lake access. A tram for easy access to dock. Lower suite is fantastic for company. It has been a fantastic rental. If it wasn't for us wanting to be there enjoying it so often, we could vacation rent the property most of the year. When we aren't there in the summer/fall, we rent the home.
