This thoughtfully designed new construction sits on a beautiful homesite that backs directly to the community pastures, offering a picturesque rural setting and the unique opportunity to enjoy horses right outside your back door. The experience and craftsmanship developed through building multi-million-dollar luxury homes has been thoughtfully brought into this build, with an emphasis on premium materials, quality construction and elevated details throughout. For the equestrian enthusiast, the possibilities are especially exciting. With an appropriate future barn, you can envision keeping your own horse on your property, or take advantage of the community’s equestrian facilities, where stalls are available for lease for an additional fee. The equestrian center features a 16-stall stable, pastures and paddocks, riding facilities and designated riding trails along the Catawba River. Imagine stepping outside each morning to views of horses grazing in the pasture and enjoying a community where the equestrian lifestyle is truly part of the character.

Some homes offer a view. This Southpointe waterfront retreat offers a panorama so broad, natural, and uninterrupted that it becomes the defining experience of the property. From the moment you enter, Lake James fills the windows and the mountain horizon stretches far beyond the water. Instead of looking across at neighboring homes, the eye travels over open lake, the forested shoreline of Lake James State Park, and layer after layer of Blue Ridge peaks. Only the slightest glimpse of another house may be visible, allowing the setting to feel private and almost untouched. The panorama encompasses many of Western North Carolina's most recognizable landmarks, including Mt. Mitchell and the Seven Sisters, Dobson's Knob, Wiseman's View, Shortoff Mountain, and, in the far distance, Grandfather Mountain. Set on a hidden drive at the end of a quiet cul de sac, the home was designed to keep this landscape in constant view. Expansive windows and glass doors frame the water from the great room, dining area, kitchen, primary suite, and outdoor living spaces. Step onto the covered porch, screened porch, wraparound deck, or open deck and the panorama widens further. These spaces offer front row seating for mist rising from the lake, clouds gathering around Mt. Mitchell, and distant mountains fading from deep green to blue. Whether enjoying coffee at sunrise, dinner outdoors, or a quiet evening, the setting feels more like a private overlook than a neighborhood home. Inside, approximately 6,085 square feet provides the scale to host family and friends while preserving the warmth of a mountain lake retreat. The great room features soaring wood ceilings, exposed beams, rich wood floors, and a dramatic stone fireplace, all positioned to complement rather than compete with the view. The open kitchen offers a large island, generous cabinetry, gas cooking, wall oven, warming drawer, beverage and wine refrigerators, and a walk in pantry. The adjoining dining area makes the lake and mountains the backdrop for every gathering. The main level primary suite offers privacy, convenience, and a peaceful place to wake to water and mountain scenery. Two upper level bedrooms and a full bath provide comfortable guest accommodations. The daylight walkout lower level includes three additional bedrooms, two full baths, one half bath, a den, second kitchen, wet bar, play room, laundry, and storage. With six bedrooms, four full baths, and two half baths, everyone can gather comfortably while still finding a quiet place of their own. The journey to the waterfront is part of the experience. Leaving the house, you pass an outdoor shower before following a smooth, gentle path with a hand railing toward the lake. Along the way, a covered gazebo offers a wonderful place to pause, sit, and take in the remarkable view across the water, state park, and mountains. Continue to the shoreline, where a floating dock, covered structure, and boat lift make it easy to enjoy boating, swimming, paddling, and exploring Lake James. At the end of the day, return to the gazebo or porch and watch the mountains transform as the light moves across the protected shoreline and distant ridgelines. This is more than a spacious Lake James waterfront home. It is a rare vantage point where the lake, state park, and an extraordinary collection of mountain landmarks come together in one sweeping view. For buyers seeking privacy, natural beauty, and a landscape that feels almost entirely free of development, 5140 Beech Bluff Drive offers a perspective that must be experienced in person.

**More than meets the eye, with a backyard that's ready for fun!** This charming home offers a surprisingly spacious feel, with a layout that makes excellent use of every square foot. The main level features the kitchen, living room, and dining area, while all three bedrooms and the full bathroom are tucked upstairs for a comfortable separation of living and sleeping spaces. Need more room? The partially finished, heated and cooled basement adds valuable flexibility and includes a full bathroom. Because the ceiling height is less than 7 feet, this space is not included in the home's heated living area, but it offers plenty of room for a recreation area, home office, gym, hobby space, or additional storage. The washer and dryer and a second refrigerator are also located downstairs and convey with the home. The backyard is where this home really comes to life. A gravel patio with pergola creates the perfect spot for outdoor dining and relaxing, while the fireplace, hot tub, and huge above-ground pool make this a backyard built for entertaining, summer afternoons, and gatherings with friends and family. All appliances convey, along with the washer and dryer and additional basement refrigerator. Even better, the sellers are willing to leave the home **fully furnished**, with only a few sentimental pieces being removed. For the right buyer, that means the opportunity to move in with little more than a suitcase. With its flexible living spaces, entertaining-friendly backyard, and furnished option, this home could be a great fit for a primary residence, second home, or investment property with potential for short-term rental use, subject to applicable rules and regulations. If you're looking for a home that lives larger than its numbers suggest and offers a little something extra around every corner, this one is worth seeing in person.
