170 Lake Forest offers something increasingly hard to find on Lake Gaston—2.70 acres, two waterfront lots, incredible sunsets and room to dream. Tucked at the end of Lake Forest Road with no HOA, there is space here for family, hobbies, chickens, lake toys and whatever you might imagine next. The second lot creates even more possibilities for another boathouse, sports court, guest house or simply more room to spread out and enjoy (subject to approval). Built with the features of a full-time residence, the home has solid bones, real hardwood floors and solid wood doors, while the layout works just as beautifully for weekends and summers at the lake. A detached two-car garage and shed provide plenty of room for all the gear that comes with lake life. The elevation and far southwest exposure are a special combination, opening up beautiful lake views and incredible sunsets from multiple levels of indoor and outdoor living. The firepit patio might just have the best seat on the property. At the shoreline, the land levels out with plenty of room for paddleboards, water toys, lakeside cornhole and play. The boathouse will hold many of today's surf boats, and the deep water is absolutely jump-worthy. For all the privacy you gain at the end of the road, you're still less than 10 minutes by boat to the closest marina and waterfront dining. Here, you have the space and freedom to enjoy Lake Gaston now, with plenty of possibilities for the future. Visit property website for more information. Rendering of second dock and sports court is for visioning process only - approvals would be needed through Dominion and County.
