Property Description

Wake up to breathtaking sunrise views over Lake Norman from the back deck of this gorgeous all-brick, one-level ranch home with a fully finished walk-out basement, perfectly positioned on a .82-acre corner lot with direct waterfront access and quick navigation to the main channel. The property features a private floating dock, built in 2018, along with a recently stabilized shoreline and a dredged cove offering deep water access, creating an exceptional setting for boating, swimming, and lakefront enjoyment. The home was beautifully renovated in 2018, blending timeless construction with stylish modern updates throughout. Designed for effortless single-level living, the main floor offers two spacious primary bedroom suites, along with a conveniently located half bath ideal for guests. The open floor plan brings the kitchen, dining area, and living room together into one inviting space, filled with natural lighting, that offers beautiful lake views and is perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. A stunning fireplace anchors the main living area, adding warmth, charm, and a welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring granite countertops, a large center island with a built-in breakfast bar, generous cabinetry, a dedicated pantry, and rich oak hardwood floors. All bathrooms are finished with granite countertops, and both primary suites feature beautifully designed walk-in tile showers, delivering a clean, upscale feel throughout the home. Oak hardwood floors extend across both the main level and the finished basement, complemented by ceramic tile in select areas for durability and ease of maintenance. The full finished basement greatly expands the living space and includes one bedroom, an additional nonconforming bedroom or bonus room, a large family room, a full kitchen and dining area, generous storage , and a second fireplace, creating a comfortable and versatile lower-level retreat. With minor modifications, this space could function as a separate apartment suitable for long-term or short-term rental use, offering excellent flexibility for income potential, multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or recreation. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a beautiful covered rear composite deck overlooking the lake, a paver stone walkway leading to the private dock, and a beautifully landscaped outdoor retreat where a stone fire pit area, and a covered patio, invite evenings spent outdoors on the lakefront. The expansive corner lot offers plenty of space for gardening, outdoor activities, or room for a pool. The fig trees add charm and character to the landscape. Additional features include a main-level two-car garage with epoxy-coated floors, providing both durability and a clean, finished appearance. A storage shed on the property provides convenient space for tools, lake gear, and equipment. A new water heater installed in 2025 provides added peace of mind. With its beautifully renovated interior, open floor plan, upgraded kitchen, elegant bathrooms, oak hardwood floors, fireplaces on both levels, deep water access, stabilized shoreline, and direct Lake Norman frontage, this property offers a rare opportunity for luxurious lakefront living, a stunning second home, or a highly flexible investment property.
