7842 Colombier Lane #11, Denver, NC

The Cape introduces a rarefied approach to waterfront living on Lake Norman’s western shore, positioned as a gated enclave of twenty-seven residences slated for completion in 2026. This four-bedroom, five-bathroom townhouse spans 4,404 square feet, characterized by a vertical architectural program that connects a two-car garage to a heated rooftop pool via a private elevator. The interior palette is defined by 9.5-inch European White Oak flooring and a kitchen anchored by a La Cornue CornuFé range and Taj Mahal quartzite. While the Lake Norman market has historically favored sprawling estates, the emergence of high-concept, lock-and-leave luxury at this scale signals a shift in preference toward turnkey convenience without compromising on materiality or privacy. This particular residence balances four fireplaces and a 400-bottle wine cellar with the utility of modern flex spaces. Private viewings and detailed site consultations may be arranged through Peters & Associates.

About the home

Live on the water’s edge. Welcome to The Cape, Lake Norman’s most anticipated new address—a gated waterfront enclave of just 27 residences on the lake’s western shore. Designed for effortless lock-and-leave living, each residence features a private elevator connecting the two-car garage to three levels of elevated living, culminating in a heated rooftop pool overlooking Lake Norman. Each residence offers four bedrooms, 4.5 baths, plus flex and bonus spaces. Inside, the standard is uncompromising, with 9.5-inch European White Oak flooring throughout, White Oak beams, elevated trim and ceiling details, four fireplaces, and a custom elevator with integrated LED screen. The chef’s kitchen is designed to impress, anchored by a 43-inch La Cornue CornuFé 110 dual-fuel range in matte black with polished brass trim, panel-ready 30-inch Thermador refrigerator and freezer columns, Thermador dishwasher, and Trade-Wind 600 CFM hood. Custom White Oak cabinetry with black aluminum glass accents surrounds a Taj Mahal quartzite island with a 2.5-inch mitered edge. A glass-enclosed wine cellar accommodates 400+ bottles, positioned beside the living room’s 48-inch Isokern fireplace with herringbone brick surround. A full scullery keeps the working kitchen beautifully concealed and includes an integrated refrigerator/freezer, smart combination wall oven, panel-ready dishwasher, Elkay built-in filtered water dispenser, and full-size pantry. The primary suite is a private retreat, featuring a see-through water vapor fireplace, White Oak desk, custom LED-lit closet, and private balcony with an ipe-clad outdoor shower. The spa-inspired bath includes dual vanities, freestanding soaking tub with brushed-gold filler, smart toilet, curbless shower, and a two-person Canadian Hemlock infrared sauna. The bonus level is designed for effortless entertaining, with a custom fireplace, indoor/outdoor bar with 72-inch pass-through window, and secondary kitchen equipped with a panel-ready refrigerator, dishwasher, ice maker, and U-Line U-Chill in-counter wine chilling system. Then there is the rooftop—the feature that truly sets The Cape apart. A heated pool with deck jets overlooks Lake Norman through a six-foot glass panel, complemented by an outdoor kitchen with 42-inch grill and gas/wood-fired pizza oven beneath an operable, LED-lit pergola. A full-size outdoor gas fireplace completes the rooftop retreat. Residences feature four to six porches and patios, while lakefront homes add nearly 500 square feet of pet-rated rooftop turf. Beyond your residence, The Cape is designed to live like a private resort. Two gated entrances lead to a 15-slip private marina, natural private beach with direct water access, four-acre dog park and walking trail, three-hole putting green with ipe bridges and water feature, lakefront fire pits, and a fountain-anchored entry surrounded by mature landscaping. Only 27 residences will ever exist along Lake Norman’s 500+ miles of shoreline. Private tours and reservations are available by appointment.
