Lots and Land in Laurel Pointe
Laurel Pointe is a compact Lake James neighborhood where the water is part of the daily routine rather than a distant backdrop. Along Hemlock Court and Laurel Pointe Drive, homes regularly pair broad lake views with either direct shoreline or deeded slip access, giving the community a strong connection to boating, paddlesports, and weekends on the water.
Community Highlights
Most of the neighborhood’s homes were built in the 1990s, and the prevailing profile is a three-bedroom single-family house on a wooded lot of roughly half an acre to just over an acre. Open living areas, vaulted or cathedral ceilings, fireplaces, and main-level bedroom layouts appear again and again, while decks, screened porches, and covered outdoor spaces are central to how these homes live. Basements are common, often adding storage, garage space, workshops, rec rooms, or finishable square footage that opens toward the lake side of the lot.
Water access is the clearest differentiator. Some properties sit directly on the shoreline with docks, seawalls, sandy or gently sloped entries, and easy walks to the water. Others trade direct frontage for deeded slips tucked into protected coves, an arrangement that keeps boating access close at hand while broadening the range of price points in the neighborhood. Closed sales have ranged from a $99,000 homesite to more than $1 million for prime waterfront positions, with the strongest pricing clustered on Hemlock Court, where larger lots and more direct water orientation show up consistently.
