16211 Terry Lane, Huntersville, NC

Situated along a protected cove near Lookout Point, this Lake Norman estate represents a thoughtful intersection of maritime privacy and suburban accessibility. The residence, originally constructed in 1980 and subjected to an extensive renovation in 2010, spans 6,664 square feet of refined living space. The interior architecture favors a disciplined cottage aesthetic, characterized by cedar beams, double mahogany entry doors, and a primary suite finished in polished limestone. With four bedrooms and six bathrooms, the floor plan is anchored by a double-height great room and a kitchen designed for large-scale hosting. Outside, the park-like grounds lead to a significant private dock capable of mooring four boats. For the discerning investor, this Huntersville submarket continues to command a premium due to its rare proximity to both the Birkdale corridor and the logistical advantages of the Charlotte Douglas International gateway. It remains a definitive choice for those prioritizing a quiet waterfront lifestyle without sacrificing urban connectivity. Private viewings may be arranged through Peters & Associates.
