LUXURY PROPERTY AUCTION: 17–30 June. Accepting starting bids through 16 June. Starting bids expected between $4.5M–$6M. Lake Norman has no shortage of waterfront homes, but few earn the word landmark. This Nantucket-inspired estate by Patrick Joseph Distinctive Homes is one of them. Set on a private cove in the prestigious Peninsula area, the property delivers panoramic lake views from nearly every room across four thoughtfully designed levels. A drive-through brick motor court and custom pivot entry door set the tone before you step inside. From there, the home unfolds with the kind of detail that accumulates over time and reveals itself slowly: Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele appliances in the dream kitchen, a spa-level primary suite on the main floor, a 10-seat home theater, a wine cellar, and a full entertainment level with bar and fireplace that opens directly to the saltwater pool. Outside, a covered deep-water dock with boat lift brings the lake to your doorstep. Multiple covered porches and terraces complete a property where the water is never far from view. The sale also presents the opportunity to acquire a full golf membership at The Peninsula Club, bypassing the waiting list entirely.
