Zoom in on Roanoke Reserve cove: summer and winter
Roanoke Reserve is part of the former Senator H. B. Moseley farm on
the Roanoke River that pre-dates the creation of the lake. While the
farming “Low Grounds” adjacent to the river were flooded when the
lake was completed in 1963, the higher elevation land became premier, highly coveted Lake Gaston property — much of which has
remained in the family and undeveloped. Al and Anne Hartley
(granddaughter of Sen. Moseley) have planned Roanoke Reserve in a
manner that preserves the history, family legacy, and the magic of this very special place on Lake Gaston.
Imagine a place where sentinel trees guard the winding trails
that lead to your home and the natural splendor surrounding
you. Indigenous wildflowers and herbs smile up at you as you
pass by…the perfect blend of rolling hills, forest, and natural
streams, with easy access to the lake. Each Roanoke Reserve
property offers elevated, spectacular home sites and views, ultimate tranquility, complete privacy, substantial shoreline, ideal waterfront with accommodation for a double
boathouse. There's plenty of room for lifestyle amenities you may choose
to add to your personal retreat on Lake Gaston: perhaps a cabana house
near the waterfront, a pool, a tennis court, nature trails, or even a little
cabin retreat away from the main house. Each Roanoke Reserve property
has a special ambience and natural beauty with varying topography — endless possibilities for year-round enjoyment.
Approaching Roanoke Reserve from the roadside, as you stroll toward the
water you pass cooling fronds of ferns in shades of vivid green. The light
plays prisms at your feet. You look up to the sky through the lush canopy
of green - you feel as if you are at the center of the universe. You take a
deep breath and feel immediate rejuvenation with a renewed sense of
calmness and clarity. The clean pungent scent of earth fills your
lungs. Then you encounter some of the most amazing elevated
views of the property coupled with the glistening waters of Lake
Gaston spreading lazily before you, beckoning you toward her.
Imagine your private retreat on that very spot. Approaching Roanoke Reserve from the main lake by boat, you enter a natural, protected cove that provides just enough buffer from the lake action yet lies within easy reach and great views. Roanoke Reserve residents will always enjoy secluded, uncongested lake living in a prime location.
A place to live, to love, to cherish and keep — each exclusive property provides ample space for you to breathe your own air, and to enjoy the quiet serendipity that you deserve. Elevated views connected to the lake offer simple pleasures of earth, sky and water.
Touch the waters, breathe the air — there is no better place to relax, recharge, spend quality time with family and friends, and watch your dreams unfold. Priceless memories.
Awaiting new owners' personal touch. Imagine the possibilities...
