Bring your house plans and discover not just a place to build, but a community to belong to.

The upper portion of the property offers a gentle slope, providing an appealing starting point for your future mountain home. The building area could be enlarged by grading the upper portion of the site, creating additional usable space for the home, parking and outdoor living. And then there are the views. With selective tree clearing, this property has the potential for beautiful views of Fontana Lake framed by the surrounding Smoky Mountains, while the fall and winter months reveal just how expansive the lake and mountain setting can be. A community hiking trail passes very near the property, making it easy to step out for a walk through the woods. But what truly sets Fontana Lake Estates apart is the lifestyle and sense of community. This is the kind of neighborhood where newcomers can quickly find “instant friends.” An active social calendar brings neighbors together throughout the year for casual gatherings like ice cream socials and cookouts, organized dinners, lake outings, holiday celebrations and other community events. Participate as much—or as little—as you like. It's a wonderful combination of having the privacy of your own mountain retreat while being part of a welcoming and active community. Owners also enjoy private access to Fontana Lake through the FLE marina area with a private boat ramp, day-use docks, dry boat storage and lakeside gathering areas.
