Some homes check boxes; this one redefines what lake living looks like. Set on a private cove along the shores of Lake Wylie, this custom-built waterfront estate delivers a lifestyle most reserve for vacation. Except here, it's part of everyday life. Spanning 4,550 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, the home is defined by soaring 10-foot ceilings, rich 5-inch hardwood floors, and uncompromising attention to detail. The open floor plan is anchored by a dramatic great room featuring coffered ceilings and double doors that open directly to a spacious screened porch — your front-row seat to the tree-lined cove. The kitchen serves as a true centerpiece, boasting a large seating island, custom cabinetry, a gas cooktop, double ovens, a vent hood, built-in microwave, and granite countertops accented by a subway tile backsplash. Whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee in the sunny breakfast room or hosting an evening gathering around the island, this home was designed to bring people together. The main-level owner's suite earns every square foot. Crowned by a triple tray ceiling, it offers a private sun deck with unobstructed lake views, an oversized walk-in closet, and a bath complete with a freestanding soaking tub and marble tile shower — thoughtfully positioned so that even stepping out of the shower offers a picturesque lake view, one of those details you only truly appreciate once you live here. Completing the main level is a dedicated home office and a guest bedroom with a private full bath, perfect for remote work or hosting out-of-town visitors. Downstairs, the lower level adds exceptional flexibility and function. It features two additional bedrooms, a full bath and half bath, a cozy den, and a large recreation room anchored by a stone bar with a wine fridge. A standout feature is the custom bunk room crafted by local artisan Jon Kelly of Carolina Reclaimed. Functioning as a complete second living space, the lower level works beautifully for multigenerational households, long-term guests, or simply spreading out. An incredibly large storage room adds even more functionality and flexibility to the space. Step outside to close to an acre-sized, flat lot where mature trees line the shoreline, providing a rare sense of natural privacy on the lake. Layered outdoor living spaces, including the screened porch, sun deck, lower-level patio, and fire pit area, flow effortlessly from inside to out. A stroll down to the boat dock places you directly on the water in a quiet cove with no through traffic. A three-car garage, circular driveway, tankless water heater, and extensive finished storage round out a home that was built to live in, not just look at. Lake Wylie is one of the Carolinas' most sought-after lakes, and this exceptional property puts you right in the heart of it.
