About This Property

Lake Norman Living at an Unbeatable Value - Welcome to Bahia Bay. Nestled on nearly half an acre of wooded land in the sought-after Bahia Bay community, this charming 3-bedroom, 3-bath home puts the best of Lake Norman right at your fingertips - without the waterfront price tag. Enjoy exclusive community access to a boat ramp, dock, paddlesport launch, and a lakefront picnic area that will make every weekend feel like a vacation. Inside, the open-concept main level is designed for easy living. The two-story family room flows seamlessly into the dining area and a chef-inspired kitchen features gleaming granite countertops and a spacious island perfect for entertaining. The owner's suite is conveniently located on the main level, offering privacy and comfort. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms share a full bath - ideal for family, guests, or a home office setup. The finished basement adds valuable flex space, ready to become your home gym, media room, or playroom. Step outside to enjoy front and rear porch decks, and gather around the fire pit in your private, wooded backyard - a true outdoor retreat. Pull right into the oversized concrete driveway with room for 3+ vehicles and head straight to the water. With easy access to all that Lake Norman has to offer, this home checks every box. Lake life is calling - come answer it.

About the Neighborhood

Homes for sale in 28031 deliver one of the most coveted addresses in the entire Lake Norman region, encompassing the waterfront communities of Cornelius along the lake's eastern shoreline approximately 20 miles north of Uptown Charlotte via I-77. The residential landscape ranges from established 1980s and 1990s traditional lakefront estates with private docks to newer construction luxury communities and low-maintenance townhomes catering to buyers seeking Lake Norman access at varied price points. Jetton Park — one of Mecklenburg County's most beloved waterfront parks featuring swimming beaches, kayak launches, and miles of greenway trails — sits directly within the zip code, as does the walkable Downtown Cornelius corridor along Catawba Avenue with its independent restaurants and local breweries. Major employers along the I-77 corporate corridor in Cornelius and Huntersville are minutes away, and the commute to Uptown Charlotte runs approximately 25–30 minutes on I-77. The 28031 real estate market commands strong and consistent demand from buyers seeking genuine lakefront lifestyle with direct interstate connectivity to Charlotte's urban core.
