Property Description
The kitchen is both beautiful and functional, with custom two-tone inset cabinetry, white oak accents, a 2.5-inch mitered-edge island, panel-ready appliances, and an oversized Venetian plaster range hood. Large windows in the breakfast area bring in natural light and frame the lake views. Tucked behind the kitchen is one of the home's standout features—a gorgeous hidden pantry/scullery with custom cabinetry, a full-size second refrigerator, second dishwasher, microwave, and plenty of storage.
The main level also includes a private guest suite with a beautifully finished en-suite bath and oversized walk-in shower. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat with a private balcony, and beautiful views of the lake and grounds. The spa-like bath features a large marble-tile shower with floor-to-ceiling glass, custom tilework, dual inset vanities, decorative backsplash detail, and luxury gold fixtures. Two oversized custom walk-in closets feature integrated LED lighting. Three additional bedrooms and a spacious laundry room with abundant cabinetry complete the upper level.
The finished lower level is where this home really stands apart. A custom golf simulator creates an incredible space for entertaining and enjoying time at home, while another quad-stack sliding door opens the lower level directly to the outdoors. The kitchenette is perfectly designed for indoor/outdoor living, with an ice maker, wine cooler, and accordion-style pass-through window connecting directly to the outdoor entertaining area. A private office and dedicated wellness room with a built-in sauna add even more versatility to this level.
Outside, the covered rear porch overlooks a peaceful Lake Norman cove and professionally landscaped grounds. A new private dock puts you just steps from the water and makes enjoying the lake easy. The property also offers room for a future pool, creating the opportunity to make the outdoor space your own.
Located in Bahia Bay, one of Lake Norman's best waterfront communities, this home is minutes from shopping, waterfront dining, medical care, and everything Cornelius has to offer. Thoughtful design, exceptional craftsmanship, and a setting that truly embraces lake living make this a home you will want to experience in person.
