About the home

Sun-drenched interiors, soaring ceilings, and tranquil lake views define this refined Lake Wylie retreat on 3+ sprawling acres. Thoughtfully designed for both grand entertaining and effortless everyday living, the residence combines warm natural finishes with a crisp, modern palette to create an inviting, move-in–ready sanctuary on the lake. A dramatic two-story great room anchors the main level, showcasing a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, rich wood-tone flooring, and an expansive wall of picture windows that frames the treetops and shimmering lake views beyond. Designer lighting and carefully curated fixtures lend character, while the soft, neutral palette lets your furnishings and art take center stage. The open layout transitions seamlessly into a chef’s kitchen featuring a large island, granite countertops, farmhouse sink, stainless appliances, abundant cabinetry, a light-filled breakfast area overlooking the lake, and an oversized pantry. Generous dining and living areas offer a sophisticated backdrop for holidays, game days, and intimate gatherings alike flowing outdoors to the large wooden deck. The main-level primary suite evokes a private spa, with a generous bedroom wrapped in windows, direct lake views, and a luxurious bath with dual vanities, freestanding soaking tub, and an impressive glass-enclosed shower. The primary closet offers exceptional storage and organization. A dedicated home office with barn doors creates a chic, quiet workspace bathed in natural light. A separate mud room and laundry room plus a stylish half bathroom for guests keep the main level beautifully organized and clutter-free. Upstairs an airy loft/playroom provides yet another relaxing gathering space, with open sightlines to the great room below and captivating lake views. Two spacious bedrooms share a well-appointed Jack-and-Jill bathroom and enjoy generous closets. The lower basement level extends the home’s livability with a large second family room and an additional bedroom perfect for a theatre, fitness studio, or private guest suite.
