**Bluff-Top Douglas Lake Views & Privacy in Emerald Pointe** If you've been looking for a place where you can build above it all and enjoy the beauty of Douglas Lake without looking directly into your neighbor's backyard, this 2.45-acre lot in Emerald Pointe is worth a look. Perched on a bluff overlooking the lake, this property offers long-range water and mountain views, a sense of privacy that's becoming harder to find, and a homesite that has already been cleared by a previous owner. The setting is one of the property's biggest advantages. Tucked away from neighboring homes, the lot gives you the feeling of having your own private retreat while still being part of Emerald Pointe. Imagine a home positioned to take advantage of the elevated views, with a porch or deck where you can watch the morning light across Douglas Lake, enjoy the changing seasons, and unwind at the end of the day. The terrain drops dramatically toward the lake, creating the elevated bluff setting and expansive views that make this property unique. Rather than dealing with the ongoing shoreline maintenance that comes with a traditional waterfront lot, you'll be able to enjoy the lake from above without worrying about moving a dock as water levels change, maintaining a shoreline, or navigating the challenges that can come with direct water access. With a previously cleared homesite and 2.45 acres to work with, there is plenty of room to create a private lake retreat, a full-time residence, or a weekend getaway. And with Emerald Pointe's location on Douglas Lake, you'll have easy access to boating, fishing, swimming, and all the outdoor recreation that makes this area so popular. This is the kind of property where the setting does much of the work. Build your home above the lake, take advantage of the elevation and long-range views, and enjoy a quiet, private setting that's still close to everything Douglas Lake and Newport have to offer. If privacy and a great view are high on your list, this one deserves a closer look. To access this lot you must visit it with a real estate agent, so call your favorite one and make the trip.
