A Stunning European-Style Retreat on Lake Norman's Quiet Side Welcome to this exceptional 4,100+ square foot custom home in the sought-after Lakewood community of Denver, NC. From the moment you step inside, you'll feel the warmth and character of a home that is beautifully appointed without ever feeling pretentious. The open floor plan connects a formal living area, featuring custom wainscoting, nine-foot ceilings, and rich hardwood floors, to a great room with a volume ceiling and a stone fireplace with gas logs. A second stone fireplace warms the keeping room, which overlooks a seasonal lake view and opens through patio doors to the outdoor living space beyond. The chef's kitchen anchors the home with a cook top island, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, all set against auto-close cabinetry with heavy trim throughout. A sunlit office sits in a quite area of the home. The laundry room, garage, staircase, and kitchen create an inviting and functional flow. The main-level primary suite offers a true retreat, with a sumptuous spa-style bath and every amenity you'd expect in a home of this caliber. Upstairs, a bonus room and loft join three additional bedrooms and three full baths, all under ten-foot ceilings with eight-foot doors and generous closet space at every turn. A walk-in attic provides rare additional storage. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with a covered porch, open deck, and stone patio area overlooking the grounds, complemented by a full irrigation system and a three-bay garage. Lakewood is a meticulously maintained neighborhood just around the corner from the community boat landing, with secured storage for boats, RVs, and other recreational vehicles. Living here means enjoying the lake, Denver's unique shops and restaurants, and a commute to Charlotte of less than 25 minutes. This is the quiet side of the lake, and this home is your invitation to experience it. 4 Bedrooms | 4.5 Bathrooms | 4,100+ Square Feet | Lakewood Community, Denver, NC
