This beautiful three story 4500+ sq. ft. home, with attached two-car carport, sits on a generous 101’ waterfront lot with an aluminum pier and boat slip. It is constructed of stone and board & batten siding and recently was newly painted and re-shingled. The back of the home features a beautiful 335 square foot screened porch and deck filled with new deep seated heavy aluminum furniture, with partial awning covering the built in gas grill.
Natural areas dominate the grounds and graveled paths lead to the lake. In addition, after a long day on the lake, an enclosed outside shower, surrounded by stone walls, awaits with both hot and cold water to rinse off the kids as needed! Back patio at ground level is ideal for enjoying view from porch swing and hammocks.
The main living area boasts a cathedral ceiling with large exposed wooden beams running from the front to the back of the home. Ceiling fans and lights dominate the ceiling and the back wall, almost entirely constructed of windows, illuminates and exposes the view down to the lake.
The kitchen is bright and airy as well, with built in oven, microwave, and a gas cook top. The cook top centers itself in the middle of the kitchen with its own island, with sit down area, and cookware is easily accessible directly above on cast iron pot rack.
Opposite the kitchen, the dining area is home to a large solid oak table and seating for ten in addition to four more matching seats at extra sit down bar areas. The large matching buffet encloses the room off from the rest of the main room directly beside it. From the dining area, the deck is accessible through the sliding glass doors to either cook on the grill and or descend to the bottom level.
The main family room is overlooked by a two story cultured stone oversized fireplace. A large couch is flanked by two oversized chairs and a half and their attending ottomans. Two towering solid cherry bookshelves enclose the fireplace to finish off the room with several books to choose from.
The rest of the first floor is devoted to the master suite. It is accessible either from the main area or by the side hall from the entrance. It is extremely large with windows overlooking the back yard and the beauty of the lake. It has a king size bed with a very plush mattress along with a single iron day bed, a television, two custom made cushioned arm chairs and bed side table.
The rest of the area adjacent to the master suite consists of a large garden tub, overlooked by large glass block window, sink and cabinetry within its own room and capable of being shut off from the rest of the area. The oversized hallway has the toilet closet to one side, walk in his and her closets on the left followed by a shower, sink and cabinetry in another room.
On the third floor, one easily notices the loft areas, one to the left and home to a small space with a full size bed, two sky lights and built in shelves…perfect for a younger child. The other to the right, and a bit larger space and more concealed, houses two queen size sleigh beds, built in shelves and blanket chest with two sky lights as well.
Descending downstairs to the basement, you are welcomed with another large living space also housing its own large cultured stone fireplace. The back wall to this room is also open with doors and windows leading out to the back porch, allowing tremendous light in and wonderful views out. Its furnishings include another large couch, two chairs and their ottomans and a decorative piece of furniture. A Sony flat screen television hangs from one side of the fireplace to keep kids occupied with video games, DVD player, VCR player and movies etc.
On one side, there is a large bedroom with a queen bed, tall dresser, night stand and a set of comfy bunk beds for the kids, and an overhead fan for convenience. It has its own bathtub/shower and vanity. On the other side of the room and to the front of the home is what currently houses the game room with ping pong table, a pinball machine and weight bench set.
This space also houses outside chairs and lounge chairs for your convenience. Also, varying sizes of life vests for the children!
This home was professionally designed and introduces easy comfortable living! The overstated plush mattresses and furniture are extremely comfortable and inviting. You will soon find that this haven was created and designed to recharge you and awake your senses to the world of relaxation away from the busy lifestyle that awaits back home. Come and lose yourself for a long weekend or an entire week!

Map & Owner's Profile
Large Lakefront Home "The Watering Hole"
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose New London
Our family has traveled the world near and far! We have cruised the open seas and trekked the mountains of Africa to the hills of Scotland. We have experienced activities such as snorkeling, scuba diving, boarding of every kind, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, zip lining in rainforests, hiking, biking and so much more! But when our busy lifestyles exhaust us and we finally land at our "watering hole" the cares of this world seem to fall to the wayside. The untouched shores of the Uwharrie National Forest seem to slow down time! The pristine waters of Badin Lake washes over the soul and regenerates and refuels the body, mind and spirit! This brings true relaxation!
