About This Home

Dreaming of a lakefront cottage on Lake Norman? This is it—right in the heart of it all! Whether you’re looking for year-round living or the perfect weekend escape, this home delivers. The main level features hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and walls of windows framing beautiful lake views. Two flexible rooms make an ideal bedroom, office, or guest space, while upstairs offers a private retreat with a bedroom, full bath, and loft.

Storage won’t be a problem with a kitchen pantry, attic access, and two exterior storage rooms for all your lake toys. Step outside and the true magic begins—relax on the screened-in deck, enjoy the fenced yard with lush grass, or head down to your private dock on some of Lake Norman’s best water. Sunsets are stunning, and boating to nearby Cornelius restaurants makes lake life easy and fun.

Peace of mind comes with recent updates: roof within the last 5 years, brand-new HVAC, and a full professional inspection with repairs already made. Lake Norman living at a price you don’t often find—come claim your slice of paradise!
