Located close to the Hendersonville Road primary commercial and commuting corridor, Lakeshore Villas features a range of outdoor amenities designed for community engagement, including a grilling area, playground, and covered gathering spaces. The interior features a large fitness center, multiple resident activity rooms and a package room. Residents will also enjoy direct views of Lake Julian, a mature forest buffer along the back of the property, and enhanced wetlands that will serve as a natural amenity.
