Nestled along the shores of Lake Norman, this custom-crafted log cabin is a truly rare waterfront retreat, perfectly positioned on a peaceful and private .70-acre lot with more than 200 feet of shoreline and sweeping lake views from a protected no-wake cove. Tucked away on a quiet private road and surrounded by lush landscaping and mature trees, this one-of-a-kind property offers the ideal blend of rustic charm, tranquility and investment potential. A sprawling porch overlooks the beautifully landscaped grounds and creates a serene outdoor setting ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or simply taking in the beauty of lake life. The property also features a convenient carport, adding even more functionality and flexibility for lake living. Follow the newly added gravel pathway down to the waterfront fire pit area, the perfect place to gather with family and friends under the stars while enjoying the peaceful cove setting. Inside, the home showcases exceptional wood craftsmanship throughout, highlighted by soaring cathedral ceilings, exposed wood beams and a dramatic two-story great room centered around a stunning fireplace. The main level features an inviting eat-in kitchen, dining area, spacious foyer, full bathroom and two generously sized bedrooms. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private retreat complete with exquisite cedar-lined his-and-hers closets, a spacious ensuite bath, and a versatile loft overlooking the great room below, perfect for a home office, bunk room or additional flex space. The nearly 1,200-square-foot walk-out basement offers endless possibilities and is already plumbed and partially finished with LVP flooring for future expansion. Whether you envision additional living space, a game room, guest suite, second kitchen or home gym, this unfinished area provides a true blank canvas. A dedicated workshop area adds even more versatility and storage. In addition to being an incredible personal lake escape, the property has also operated as a successful Airbnb for several years, providing exceptional short-term rental income potential. With deep water, unmatched character, peaceful surroundings, and room to expand, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special waterfront property on Lake Norman.
