Located in Winding Forest, a well-situated and quaint subdivision in Troutman near Lake Norman and just minutes from Mooresville, this home offers impressive craftsmanship and thoughtful design throughout. The all-brick exterior, expansive driveway — large enough to accommodate many vehicles — and well-manicured landscaping set the tone before you ever step inside. Step through the door and you’re greeted by a two-story foyer and living space open to the second floor, with 10-foot ceilings flowing throughout the rest of the main level. Beautiful white oak hardwood flooring runs throughout, creating an open, airy atmosphere perfectly suited for both everyday living and large-scale entertaining.

Natural light pours into the generous living spaces, where a sleek electric fireplace adds warmth and ambiance to the main living area. Upstairs, the oversized bonus room offers flexibility — whether a media room, playroom, or secondary living space — complemented by an abundance of additional storage throughout. The loft features a wet bar with premium finishes, making it an ideal spot for entertaining or unwinding. Every bathroom is beautifully appointed with quality tile work, and each closet in the home has been thoughtfully designed with custom shelving, hanging space, and built-in storage solutions.

The primary bathroom features a large walk-in shower, a standalone soaking tub, his and hers sinks, and premium hardware throughout — a perfect place to unwind at the end of the day.

The builder’s attention to detail goes beyond the surface — the home includes a whole-home water filtration system, gas dryer hookup, and is pre-wired for a 220V EV charger connection in the oversized, extra-deep 3-car garage. Out back, a large low-maintenance composite deck and landscaped fire pit area with gravel surround and stone ring create a wonderful outdoor living space.
