Lake Norman Waterfront Homes for Sale Less than 5yrs old -     Lake Norman Waterfront Real EstateLake Norman in North

Carolina is the largest man-made lake in NC, and is located in the northern part of Mecklenburg County, just 18 miles northwest of Charlotte. It is sometimes called an "Inland Sea," with over 520 miles of beautiful shoreline. It also has some of the most expensive real estate in Charlotte, NC.

The Lake Norman area actually consists of lakefront neighborhoods, spectacular golf, elegant shopping and the charming village atmosphere of Cornelius, Davidson, Denver, Mooresville and Huntersville. It is now one of the most rapidly growing and popular areas in North Carolina.

Think of it as “Charlotte casual.” A place where you can enjoy the benefits of doing business in one of America’s most dynamic metropolitan areas, yet still find countless reasons to kick off those wingtips and ease into your flip-flops.

Serious Business. Serious fun. That’s what North Carolina’s Lake Norman Region is all about. However, if you are not ready yet to buy one of those homes there are plenty others Lake Norman waterfront homes priced between 300k to over 1 million.

Denver, NC Waterfront Homes for Sale - Great Lake Living without all the snow!

The recent growth of Charlotte has fueled tremendous development of the areas surrounding Lake Norman. The lake has become a very popular recreation spot, attracting thousands of visitors every year for fishing, swimming and boating. Interstate route 77 runs along the east side of the lake and, because of the fast and easy access to Charlotte, the lake's east side has developed very quickly. Where small summer cottages and pine forests stood only a few short years ago, million dollar homes now sit and look out over the water.

New homes and businesses are suddenly popping up throughout the area and several large development projects are underway. With a location that offers easy access to Charlotte and Hickory, yet still let's you feel away from it all with beautiful lake views and a small town atmosphere, it's no wonder that the area is predicted to grow quickly in the coming years. People are beginning to discover the charm of the "other side of the lake" and in particular, Denver.

The next wave of foreclosures in the Charlotte and Lake Norman Region is coming.

OK, so let's put 2011 behind us and start off the 2012 in a good mood. Well, I was ready to but I had to stop drinking my coffee and read the headline story today in the Charlotte Observer. "Housing Glut looms behind the region's "shadow inventory".

Now I know after some of yoy have read the story feel like that is bad news for the Real Estate market I look at it as a great opportunity for many looking to move to get a terrific buy. Many of my clients are looking to buy on Lake Norman and are noticing the tremendous value on waterfront homes.

Lake Norman is a great destination for many who want Lake Living with access to city ammenities. There is over 500 miles of shoreline with homes and lots priced from $150k to over $8 million.

So, let's ring in the New Year with optimism and opportunity. I hope everyone has a healthy, safe and prosperous 2012!

Lake Norman Waterfront Real Estate - Iredell County 28117

Iredell County is a county located in the U.S. state of North Carolina. As of 2010, the population was 159,437. Its county seat is Statesville and its largest town is Mooresville. It is a major hub of NASCAR racing, with many race shops located in the county (mostly around Mooresville). Universal Technical Institute operates NASCAR Technical Institute under licensing agreements. The school offers racing-related instruction to prepare the student for their job search in the racing industry. Many NASCAR drivers live around Mooresville and Lake Norman. Although northern Iredell County has retained much of its rural character, the southern half of the county is experiencing rapid suburbanization and population growth, largely due to the immense popularity of the Lake Norman area for residents of nearby Charlotte, North Carolina's largest city.

Iredell County is an important transportation center for the state, as both Interstate 77 and Interstate 40 cross just north of Statesville. This has given birth to the county's slogan "Crossroads for the Future." Residents have easy access going south on I-77 to Charlotte; north on I-77 to Elkin, North Carolina and Roanoke, Virginia; east on I-40 to Winston-Salem, Greensboro and Raleigh; and west along I-40 to Hickory, North Carolina and Asheville.

The county's largest river, the Catawba, forms much of its western border. Lake Norman, North Carolina's largest manmade lake, is the most prominent geographic feature of southern Iredell County; it is often called North Carolina's "inland sea".
