7653 Juniper Lane, Denver, NC

The Lakewood community on the western shores of Lake Norman remains a sought-after enclave for those prioritizing space and established surroundings over the congestion of the lake’s eastern corridor. This 2007 residence, encompassing 5,024 square feet across three levels, exemplifies a successful modernization of the traditional suburban floor plan. The interior architecture is defined by a primary suite on the main level and a completely reimagined chef’s kitchen featuring JennAir professional appliances and a waterfall-edge central island. With five bedrooms and five bathrooms, the home is designed for multi-generational utility, notably within the finished walk-out lower level which includes a secondary living area and wet bar. In the current Denver market, properties of this scale that have undergone comprehensive aesthetic updates, particularly in high-traffic areas like the kitchen and primary bath, continue to command attention for their turnkey readiness. This represents a significant opportunity for buyers seeking modern functionality within an established Westport setting. Private viewings may be arranged through Peters & Associates.
