Opportunities like this are becoming increasingly rare — custom-built full brick home set on 2.76 private, wooded acres in a gated community — offering a level of privacy, craftsmanship, and character that is increasingly hard to find in today’s market. A long private driveway and manicured landscaping create a true sense of arrival, leading into an open, thoughtfully designed layout highlighted by vaulted and coffered ceilings, extensive millwork, solid wood doors, and rich hardwood flooring throughout the main living areas. The vaulted family room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and flows seamlessly into the kitchen and keeping area—creating a natural gathering space ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features granite countertops, a large center island, stainless steel appliances, and a striking exposed brick accent wall with custom wood mantle—a standout design element rarely found in typical new construction. The primary suite on the main level offers a true retreat, complete with a coffered ceiling and a private sitting room or home office behind French doors. The en-suite bath includes dual vanities, a soaking tub set within an arched alcove, a walk-in tiled shower, and an expansive walk-in closet w/ custom shelving. Outdoor living is almost more impressive, with a covered back porch featuring a beadboard ceiling and Trex decking, overlooking a peaceful, wooded backyard that provides exceptional privacy and usable space. Additional highlights include a formal dining room with detailed trim work, multiple flexible living areas, spacious secondary bedrooms, private upstairs bedroom w/ full bathroom and an enormous walk-in attic, and a 3-car side-load garage. Homes offering this combination of acreage, privacy, and custom craftsmanship—within a gated community—are increasingly rare, especially in such a convenient location near Lake Norman. Schedule your showing early to experience it in person.
