Single Family Home for sale in Cornelius, NC

for $1,575,000 with 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths. This 2,773 square foot home was built in 1973 on a lot size of 0.25.

Some homes on Lake Norman are all about the house. Others are about the lifestyle that comes with it. 21101 Island Forest Drive delivers both. Positioned on a west-facing waterfront lot in one of Cornelius most established lake communities, this completely reimagined home is designed around what makes Lake Norman living special. West facing views, unforgettable sunsets, effortless entertaining, and the ability to enjoy the lake right from your backyard at an affordable price. Inside, the home has been completely transformed into a bright, open retreat where the lake is always part of the experience. Vaulted living spaces, wrapped beams and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace create a dramatic main living area, while the renovated kitchen anchors the home with custom cabinetry, premium appliances, gas cooking and an oversized island made for gathering. The thoughtful renovation continues throughout with updated flooring, remodeled bathrooms, custom stair treads, a redesigned primary suite with custom walk-in closet, updated laundry and mudroom spaces, and extensive improvements that allow the next owner to move in and immediately begin enjoying the home. But the real story of 21101 Island Forest begins outside. As the afternoon turns to evening, the west facing backyard becomes the place everyone wants to be. Gather on the lakeside deck, relax in the hot tub, watch the game outside, sit around the fire pit, or simply take in the sunset across Lake Norman. The expanded outdoor living areas, new fencing, landscaping, concrete patio and waterfront setting create a private retreat equally suited for quiet evenings and weekends filled with friends and family. And unlike waterfront locations that leave you choosing between lake life and convenience, Island Forest puts you in the heart of Cornelius with Davidson, dining and shopping in Birkdale Village, parks and I-77 just minutes away. The existing waterfront setup also gives the next owner the opportunity to create a new dock tailored specifically to their boating and lake lifestyle. You can renovate a house. You can redesign a kitchen. But you can't recreate a west-facing Lake Norman lot in the heart of Cornelius. At 21101 Island Forest Drive, you're not simply buying a renovated waterfront home. You're buying the sunsets, the water, the location, and the Lake Norman lifestyle that comes with it.
