Residential Land for Sale in Morganton, North Carolina
3100 E Moonlight Pl, Morganton, NC 28655
Set on 3.71 private acres in the gated Waters Edge community, this rare Lake James homesite offers approximately 300 feet of level shoreline on one of the lake's quietest coves - calm, clear water perfect for swimming, kayaking, and paddleboarding from your own backyard. This is a non-dockable lot. The wooded, gently sloping site is ready to build on or come enjoy as is: driveway, parking, and boat trailer storage already in place, soil test on record, and the Fonta Flora State Trail running directly along the back edge of the property. Underground power, high-speed internet, and city water are available. Short-term rentals are allowed. Adjacent to 47.99 acres of protected green space, this lot feels more like a private nature preserve than a typical lakefront homesite. The community beach and a nearby marina with a public boat launch keep the full lake experience within easy reach. Morganton is 15 minutes away; Asheville under an hour. Seclusion, acreage, and a front-row seat to Lake James - all in one place. NC Agent Owned
