Description

An incredible waterfront investment opportunity on Lake Norman. Situated on a premier lakefront lot, this property includes a private pier/dock and offers remarkable potential for renovation, expansion, or even a full redevelopment. The home is in need of updates but provides a solid footprint with sweeping lake views. With its hard-to-find shoreline access and established dock, this is the ideal canvas for builders, investors, or buyers looking to create a custom lakefront residence.An incredible waterfront investment opportunity on Lake Norman.
