What if your dream home could start several steps ahead of a typical vacant lot, with Lake Varner just down the road? This 2.009-acre Covington homesite comes with valuable preparation already completed, including a field-survey-based site plan, custom two-story home plans marked Released for Construction, proposed driveway placement, soil documentation, septic design, and erosion and stormwater planning. Nearby Lake Varner offers outdoor recreation including fishing, nature trails, picnic areas, an accessible fishing pier, and boat access for permitted electric-powered and paddle boats. Instead of starting from scratch, buyers can move forward with a clear vision and a substantial planning package already in place, subject to independent verification of permits, plan transferability, septic, well, utilities, zoning, and other requirements. Lake photos shown are of nearby Lake Varner for area and lifestyle reference only; this property is not represented as lakefront, waterfront, or having private lake access.
