A distinguished lakefront residence at The Reserve at Hyco Lake, 976 Estate Rd is a turnkey estate that marries purposeful design with outstanding water access. Built in 2019 and offered fully furnished, this 4,224-square-foot Traditional home commands panoramic views across Hyco Lake from nearly every principal room. Enter through a thoughtful foyer to a soaring two-story great room where a gas-log fireplace and shiplap accent wall anchor expansive windows that frame the water. Walnut hardwood floors run through the main level, and custom live-edge walnut railings add artisanal detail throughout.
The chef’s kitchen is a focal point: an 11-foot island, dual dishwashers, double Thermador convection ovens, an oversized Thermador refrigerator/freezer, and a wet bar with wine cooler and bar refrigerator make entertaining effortless. Vaulted whitewashed plank ceilings in the dining area open to a covered main-level porch equipped with a remote-controlled retractable screen — the ideal transition between indoor comfort and lakeside living. The primary suite on the first floor includes a private sunroom with lake views, a walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath. An office/study with built-ins and a full bath can easily function as a fourth bedroom, while two private guest suites upstairs feature custom-tiled ensuite baths and sitting areas in the breezeway.
Outdoor living is exceptional: a gently sloping, landscaped path leads to a double-bay boathouse with Trex decking and abundant storage for watercraft and gear. The property also includes irrigation, Wi-Fi stations throughout the house, and a Generac generator for peace of mind. Above the oversized garage is a large bonus room with a sleeping area and full bath — perfect for extended guests or as a private media retreat. This is a turnkey opportunity for a family looking for a primary residence or a second home with immediate income potential (confirm short-term rental rules locally).
Easy drives to regional hubs (Raleigh, Greensboro, and Durham are all roughly within an hour) expand the pool of buyers while keeping the property’s feeling of seclusion and privacy. With impeccable finishes, ready lake access, and a gated setting, this estate represents a rare, move-in-ready offering on Hyco Lake.
