Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1993
Why the Owner Chose Lake Wylie
Our family bought this lot on Lake Wylie in 1951 as a weekend getaway and in 1993 consulted with architect Reg Narmour to design a home with a Cape Cod cedar shake exterior, a log beam interior with the feel of an Maine fishing lodge. It is a wonderfully peaceful,cottage for you and your family to enjoy during each season.
The Unique Benefits of this House
We're 15 minutes south of the Charlotte airport (which is why 2 of our 5 neighbors are airline pilots) but it feels like you're in the nearby Smoky Mountains. For our family it's been the ultimate urban escape on the banks of the historic Catawba River which has been dammed to create Lake Wylie. We're located on a peninsula with 270 degrees of water out of the main porch. Fishing, canoeing and bird watching are favorite activities.
