About This Home
Welcome home to this magnificent property situated in the desirable Chapel Cove neighborhood. Offering 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and approximately 3,566 heated square feet on a professionally landscaped 0.52-acre lot, this home delivers both space, thoughtful design and versatility.
A grand two-story foyer welcomes you, flanked by a formal dining room adorned with detailed millwork, and flows effortlessly into a spacious great room filled with natural light and anchored by a cozy gas fireplace. The open-concept kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring rich cherry cabinetry, a large granite island with seating, a gas cooktop, double ovens, both a butler's pantry and walk-in pantry, and a bright breakfast area. A main-level guest suite with a full bath provides ideal flexibility for visitors or multi-generational living.
Upstairs, the expansive primary suite showcases hickory wood flooring, a tray ceiling, and a luxurious bath with dual vanities, a garden tub, separate shower, and a large walk-in closet. Two secondary bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while a fourth bedroom offers its own private ensuite. A versatile bonus room with a walk-in closet adds even more living space, and the laundry room has been thoughtfully updated with new cabinetry and butcher block countertops.
Outdoor living is exceptional, featuring an EZE-Breeze screened porch, an oversized paver patio, and a fire pit overlooking a private fenced backyard. Additional highlights include an irrigation system on a separate water meter, detached shed powered by solar panels and home gutter dome gutter guards. A three-car attached garage (installed plug for EV charger and home generator) and extended driveway provide ample parking.
Chapel Cove residents enjoy resort-style amenities, including a Lake Wylie kayak launch, pool, clubhouse, fitness center, trails, playground, and tennis, pickleball and basketball sports courts. Conveniently located near dining, shopping, and just minutes from the airport and the U.S.
National Whitewater Center, this home offers the perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and community living.
