Rare Development Opportunity in Fontana Lake Estates! Over 150 acres of prime land—featuring a 20+ acre lakefront tract with 1,700+ ft of shoreline—nestled just inside the gate of one of Western NC’s premier lakefront communities. This is the last large parcel available in FLE, offering exceptional potential for a visionary developer. An old logging road runs through the upper portion, creating a natural path for access to future ridge lots with possible long-range views. Once managed by the U.S. Forest Service, FLE is now a gated, thoughtfully planned wilderness community with a strong sense of belonging. Amenities include paved roads, a private boat ramp, day docks, a lakeside pavilion and a full social calendar in this thriving, active neighborhood. The lifestyle sells itself—and the original developers saw great success. Now it’s your turn to shape the next chapter of this unique community. Rare opportunities like this don’t come twice.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
