26 Harborage Court occupies the kind of homesite buyers hope to find in Hampton Lake but rarely can, an early-selected waterfront lot with a very private wooded preserve beyond, and the clubhouse only minutes away by boat.

The interior was substantially reworked, with nearly $230k+ invested in renovations.

A new fireplace with custom built-ins gives the great room additional warmth and architectural character, while coffered and tray ceilings, plantation shutters, millwork, and thoughtful finishes reinforce the home's custom quality.The 4-bed, 4-bath layout offers excellent flexibility, including a spacious first-floor primary suite overlooking the lake and 2 additional main-level guest accommodations. The arrangement works equally well for full-time living, visiting family, or extended stays without sacrificing privacy. The second floor guest suite is spacious and has a custom storage closet leading into a massive insulated walk-in attic. Outside, the covered lanai feels like a continuation of the interior living space. It overlooks the lake, private dock, and wooded preserve, creating a setting that feels noticeably more private than many waterfront homes within the community.

The value here is not only in what has been built- it is in what has been preserved, documented, and still remains possible. Set on one of Hampton Lake's early-selected waterfront estate homesites, this lightly used second home pairs a private dock, premier lake view, exceptional storage, and future expansion potential with the kind of ownership history buyers rarely get to inherit. Built in 2014 and maintained with extraordinary/meticulous care by its original owner- 2024 Roof, 2026 HVAC, and yearly upgrades- the home offers 2,517 SF with 3 beds/3 ensuite baths, a home dedicated office, and an easy, livable floor plan designed around the lake. The kitchen is generous in scale, with a breakfast room that keeps daily living connected to the water, main indoor and outdoor gathering spaces. From there, the home opens naturally to a large screened porch and patio- an ideal setting for lakefront living and entertaining. The primary living spaces are complemented by something increasingly difficult to find under $1M: serious utility and room to grow. The oversized, temperature-controlled 3+ car garage spans approximately 950 square feet, while a 900+ square-foot attic above the garage- with three dormers/windows- offers unusually compelling potential for future finished space. A second large attic over the main level adds even more storage and flexibility. What truly separates this home is its provenance. The original owner meticulously supervised construction and maintained detailed binders documenting the property from site preparation forward, creating a level of transparency and care that is almost impossible to replicate in any resale. The entire home feels like it was built and then preserved until now- showing no signs of wear/tear. Hampton Lake's 165-acre freshwater lake, resort-style amenities, waterfront dining, fitness, racquet sports, trails, and golf-cart connectivity create a lifestyle that feels both active and relaxed. 7 Anchor Bay Court represents a one of the most compelling opportunities in Hampton Lake.
