About This Home
A rare stretch of shoreline where the home and the water are fully connected.
Some properties capture a view. This one is built around it.
From the moment you enter, the lake is the focal point. Expansive windows draw the water into the home, carrying natural light through the main living spaces and creating a constant visual connection that never feels secondary. Nearly every room is oriented to the view, so the lake becomes part of the experience whether you are moving through the home or simply spending time in it.
Set on a gently sloping 0.67 acre lot with nearly 5,000 square feet, the home and land work together in a way that feels intentional. The transition from inside to outside is effortless. Living spaces open toward the deck, and from there the property continues outward, moving naturally through terraced lawn and gathering areas down to the shoreline.
The outdoor spaces mirror the home in how they are used. The main deck offers a wide, elevated perspective over the water, while the lower terrace and fire pit create a more grounded, relaxed setting closer to the lake. Each space feels connected, but with its own purpose.
At the water’s edge, a private sandy beach and centered dock complete the setting. It is a rare combination of usability and presence, where the shoreline is easy to access and the water is something you engage with daily, not just something you look at.
What adds another layer to the lifestyle is the proximity to Copperhead Island, located just outside the entrance to the community. Connected to the McDowell Nature Preserve trail system, it offers an easy extension of the property for walking, exploring, or simply stepping into a quieter natural setting.
Throughout the home and property, everything ties back to the same idea. The water is not separate from the living space. It is integrated into it, shaping how the home feels, how it functions, and how time is spent here.
