Lakefront living finds its finest expression at 966 Mapleton Lane, a new construction residence in the Derbyshire community of Columbus, NC. Four bedrooms, two full baths, and two half baths are set against a backdrop of 5-inch red oak hardwood, custom shaker-style cabinetry and vanities, and a Marvin Elevate window and door package. GE Café appliances anchor the kitchen, while the living room centers on a 42-inch fireplace configured for either natural gas or wood. In the primary suite, a custom tile shower, freestanding soaking tub, and bespoke closet storage by Carolina Closets complete a retreat of quiet comfort. Outdoors, the covered rear deck draws the lake into daily life, finished in Trex decking with custom cable railing beneath a tongue-and-groove cypress ceiling. A flagstone front porch, crowned by a matching cypress ceiling, offers a gracious arrival, framed by professionally installed landscaping and a full irrigation system. LP SmartSide siding, stone veneer at the foundation, CertainTeed Landmark architectural shingles, and custom 6-inch gutters with round downspouts give the exterior its enduring character. The three-car garage is appointed with epoxy-coated flooring and Haas doors with LiftMaster openers. Thoughtful practicalities follow throughout: custom closets by Carolina Closets, a GE washer and dryer, a Rinnai natural gas tankless water heater, generous attic storage, a fully encapsulated crawlspace with commercial dehumidifier, and a preinstalled generator connection. Water service is provided by Inman-Campobello Water District, complemented by an individual septic system and high-speed fiber internet through Windstream. A rare chance to pair the ease of new construction with the beauty of the lake

Wake up seeing the water, slip your kayak in before breakfast, and end the day on the balcony as the sun settles over the lake. This brand-new 2026 home offers 159 feet of direct frontage on 33-acre Lake Sandy Plains and sits on 0.89 acres in Derbyshire, a gated family and equestrian community where the lifestyle is every bit as special as the home itself. Reserved for peaceful, non-motorized recreation, the lake invites you to kayak, paddleboard, swim, or fish just steps from your back door. If you have a horse or two, Derbyshire offers exceptional equestrian amenities beyond the shoreline, with access to the CETA and FETA trail systems for miles of riding through the beautiful Carolina foothills. Approximately eight miles of community walking trails provide the perfect setting for morning walks with the dog, while the gently rolling lawn leading to the lake offers plenty of room for both two- and four-legged family members to enjoy. Inside, European windows and doors capture the lake views and fill the home with natural light. The main living area soars beneath a vaulted tongue-and-groove wood ceiling, anchored by a handsome stacked-stone fireplace. Glass doors open onto the covered wraparound balcony, where cable railings preserve the sweeping views and create an inviting outdoor living space overlooking the water. The kitchen combines clean, timeless design with thoughtful functionality, featuring white shaker cabinetry, a stained wood island, stone countertops, a Bosch wall oven and microwave, a Bosch dishwasher and a natural gas cooktop, plus a walk-in pantry. The main-level primary suite is a peaceful retreat with beautiful lake views, a custom walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath with a frameless glass shower. Just off the oversized two-car garage, a practical mudroom is ready for muddy boots and paws, with the laundry room conveniently located alongside. Downstairs, the walkout lower level opens directly to a covered lakeside patio. Designed for relaxed entertaining, it features a spacious recreation room with a modern electric fireplace, wet bar, and wine cellar, plus two additional bedrooms with walk-in closets and a full bath. At approximately 2,942 finished square feet, this home is designed around how you want to live—quiet mornings on the lake, afternoons on the trails, dogs playing in the yard, and evenings watching the light change across the water. All of this is just minutes from the grocery store in Columbus, Tryon, and Landrum, with convenient access to I-26—offering a peaceful lakefront and/or equestrian lifestyle without giving up easy access to town.

Property is being offered as approximately +/-2.5 acres; the buyer may have the opportunity to purchase additional acreage, less acreage, or the entire parcel!(See other MLS #s) If you’ve been waiting for the right investment opportunity in one of Western North Carolina’s growing corridors, this is one you truly need to walk/run/jog/roll however you need to and see this one to appreciate.

Whether you envision storage buildings, mixed-use development, affordable or senior housing, office space, a hardware store, recreational facilities, a youth sports complex, skating rink, or something entirely unique, the versatility and location make this tract stand out from the rest. One of the hidden gems of the property is the beautiful flatter area “up top,” offering incredible potential for additional development and usability.

Future area improvements, including the Rails to Trails expansion and continued YMCA growth nearby, only add to the long-term appeal and traffic exposure. The property also features a creek along the lower backside (***if you purchased the larger piece or all of it together), multiple usable areas, and flexibility for a variety of potential layouts and uses.
