188 Old Post Road | The Point | Trump National Golf Club of Charlotte

There is a particular kind of home on Lake Norman that stops you the moment you walk in. This was that home.

Located within easy walking distance of The Village — and backing directly to the walking trail accessible through your own private gate — this residence offered my buyer something that is genuinely difficult to find: a waterfront lifestyle with dock views, resort-style outdoor living, and a sense of tranquility that makes the rest of the world feel very far away. I recognized it immediately. We moved accordingly.

Where the Outside Draws You In From the two-story foyer, the home announces its intentions immediately. Formal dining and a living room with fireplace frame the entry, but your eye is drawn straight through to the windowed wall overlooking the private backyard oasis beyond. A sparkling pool and spa, expansive stone patio with wood-burning fireplace, and an outdoor shower create an outdoor environment that rivals anything the lake has to offer. The dock view — visible from multiple rooms throughout the home — serves as a constant, beautiful reminder of where you are.

A Kitchen and Great Room Built for Living The chef's kitchen is the heart of the main level — paneled appliances, quartz countertops, and a generous island opening naturally into a vaulted great room anchored by a river rock stone fireplace. Hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and custom built-ins carry throughout, lending the home a warmth and character that feels both elevated and effortlessly livable.

Private Spaces That Restore The primary suite is a sanctuary within a sanctuary — a fireplace, luxurious soaking tub, walk-in shower, and custom walk-in closet creating a retreat that never has to compete with the rest of the home for your attention. Three additional bedrooms on the second level each feature their own en-suite bath, ensuring that guests and family experience the same standard of comfort. A dedicated office with dock views, along with two additional bonus rooms, rounds out a second level with remarkable flexibility.

The Village, Right Outside Your Gate Step through the back gate and the walking trail to The Village unfolds before you — golf, tennis, pickleball, and the full resort-style amenities of Trump National Golf Club Charlotte just a gentle stroll away. This is Lake Norman living where convenience and escape exist in perfect balance.

For my buyer, this wasn't just a home. It was exactly what they had been looking for — and then some.
