106 West Cardinal embodies what buyers seek most on Lake Gaston. There is magic in this type of main-lake cove lot—deep water, protected from wake and storms, tucked inside a cove yet offering direct access to big water for cruising, sunsets, waterfront dining, and marinas. Smart buyers know the dock is as important as your lake home. Here, it's designed for all-day living on the water with a lounge area, bar, TV connection, refrigerator, and even space for a game of cornhole (see note on the lattice!). Set on a deep-water main-lake cove at Mile 12, this PRIME location puts you just minutes from waterfront dining and marinas—and only eight minutes from the grocery store. Lake days begin the moment you wind down the wooded drive on this one-acre lot with a circular driveway that brings you right to the front door. Inside, the home opens to the lake with views from the updated kitchen, dining, and living areas, anchored by a stone fireplace and extending to both the grilling deck and screened porch overlooking the water. The layout is one buyers consistently ask for: three guest rooms, three full baths, two living areas with flexible space. What elevates this home are the extras —a lake-forward lower-level garage with paved parking ideal for converted recreation space, a lower-level kitchenette, a covered patio with room for a hot tub, and a firepit for nights spent lakeside. There is added value here in a boutique community that allows long-term rentals only and high-speed internet—perfect for staying connected and streaming must-watch games right from the dock. This isn't just a lake house — it's the kind of place where days slow down, the dock becomes home base, and lake memories happen naturally.
