About this home
Step through the front door and you immediately feel it—total privacy, panoramic water views, and a level of craftsmanship rarely seen on Lake Norman. Set on its own gated 3.04-acre island with approximately 1,250 feet of shoreline, Regatta Island offers a rare combination of scale, exclusivity, and turnkey luxury.
Finished with wide-plank white oak flooring and a premium appliance package featuring Wolf appliances and a Sub-Zero refrigerator, the home blends refined design with top-tier performance. The double-island chef’s kitchen anchors the main living space, flowing seamlessly into expansive indoor and outdoor entertaining areas.
Slide open the doors and transition instantly into resort-style living, where a saltwater pool and spa overlook the water, complemented by fire features and a covered lakeside pavilion designed for year-round enjoyment. A custom pool house and an exceptional private dock by Lyfe Marine — complete with covered boat storage, multiple lifts, and jet ski platforms—create a true waterfront retreat.
Whether enjoying the lake from your private shoreline or heading out for the evening, the property offers both seclusion and convenience—choose your vehicle from the 8-car garage or step onto your boat within seconds.
Completed in July 2024 by King Farm Building Group, this fully furnished estate was designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living and elevated entertaining. Additional features include two Generac generators, two laundry rooms with Electrolux washers and dryers, a Savaria Eclipse elevator, six Daikin HVAC systems, three Navien tankless water heaters, and dual pump-out systems to the road.
Architectural details include Windsor Pinnacle aluminum-clad windows, Charleston blend slate roofing, a custom Clark Hall iron entry door with rain-tempered glass, North Carolina quarried stone, multiple Isokern fireplace systems, and custom copper chimney shrouds. The motor court is finished with Belgard Lafitt Grana slab pavers and Belgian block accents.
A truly rare opportunity to own a fully realized private island compound where every detail has been designed for an exceptional waterfront lifestyle.
