What if you could live on the lake and still be approximately 20 minutes from Uptown Charlotte and 10 minutes from Charlotte Douglas International Airport? At 6000 Midsomer Road, waterfront living doesn’t require disconnecting from everything else. Set on an exceptional Lake Wylie cove with deep-water access and expansive views, the home is minutes from Downtown Belmont, with its restaurants, boutiques and walkable small-town atmosphere. The River District is also nearby, bringing new shopping, dining and entertainment to this side of Charlotte. But what truly sets this property apart is Midsomer Gems, an intimate collection of just five luxury modern waterfront residences created by Artistic Contractors. Nowhere else on Lake Wylie or Lake Norman will you find five individually designed, multimillion-dollar modern waterfront residences side by side, each completely unique yet sharing a cohesive architectural vision. Three are now complete, with only two homesites remaining. Together, they create a spectacular collection of modern architecture unlike anything else on either lake. Arriving at Midsomer feels less like entering a typical lakefront neighborhood and more like discovering a private collection of custom homes. 6000 Midsomer isn't simply an extraordinary modern home—it is part of an intentionally created enclave where the neighboring residences reinforce the architecture, caliber and experience of the property itself. At 6000 Midsomer, everything was designed around the water. With 8,355 square feet of heated living space, approximately 1,900 square feet of covered porches and a 950-square-foot garage, the home offers more than 11,200 square feet under roof. A monumental 10-foot-by-10-foot pivot door opens into a spectacular atrium great room beneath a 28-foot pyramidal clerestory ceiling clad in imported Peruvian cumaru. Expansive glass, natural stone and exposed steel frame the space, while a 24-foot folding glass wall opens completely to the covered outdoor living areas, connecting the great room, outdoor kitchen, infinity-edge pool and spa, and lake. The six-bedroom residence combines dramatic architecture with everyday livability, including a chef’s kitchen with concealed scullery, floating mono-stringer staircase and floor-to-ceiling lake views from the primary suite. The oversized three-car garage features 14-foot ceilings and 10-foot doors, allowing additional vehicle storage with lifts. But the specifications alone aren't what make this property difficult to replace. It is the combination: an acre-sized waterfront setting, mature trees, an excellent cove, beautiful lake views, resort-style pool, deep-water dock, extraordinary neighboring architecture and remarkable proximity to Charlotte. For buyers who naturally begin their waterfront search on Lake Norman, 6000 Midsomer offers a compelling alternative—exceptional architecture and lakefront living with Uptown roughly 20 minutes away. Spend the morning on the boat and the afternoon by the pool. Head into Belmont for dinner and a walk through town. Enjoy nightlife in Uptown that evening. Catch an early flight the next morning without a long drive to the airport. Then come home to the quiet of Lake Wylie. The real luxury isn't any single feature. It is having all of this in one place. Lake life without isolation. City access without city living. Modern architecture without standing alone. 6000 Midsomer Road. Lake Wylie without the compromise.

There are homes that simply provide a place to live, and then there are homes that become part of the way you remember your life. 17 Amherst Rd is the latter. Privately nestled on 1.5 beautifully landscaped acres along the 6th fairway of the historic Biltmore Forest Country Club, this extraordinary residence offers an uncommon combination of serenity, craftsmanship, gracious living, and natural beauty. Here, the landscape seems to become part of the architecture, with expansive golf-course views, mature gardens, peaceful water, and outdoor spaces that invite you to linger. Originally built in 1968 and thoughtfully expanded and remodeled by Griffin Architects, the 5,650-square-foot home possesses the soul of a classic residence while offering the ease and versatility of a home designed for contemporary life. Its exceptional Arts & Crafts character is expressed throughout in exquisite custom Cherry and Maple millwork. Inside, the experience begins with a gracious entry foyer and continues into light-filled living and dining rooms oriented toward the beauty beyond the windows. The chef’s kitchen, welcoming family room, and elegant wet bar create an effortless setting for everything from quiet mornings to lively evenings with friends. A generous study/den with a full bath provides a private retreat and additional flexibility. At the heart of the main level is a primary suite designed as a sanctuary. Golf-course views bring a sense of calm, while a private sitting and office area creates space to read, work, or retreat. Two walk-in closets provide generous storage, and the spa bath features a wet room, oversized shower, and soaking tub. Step onto the private golf-view porch and the pace of the day slows. A spiral staircase leads from the suite to the lower level, creating a distinctive connection between floors.

A graceful curved driveway winds through the landscape into this private forest enclave, complete with additional parking and a deep two-car garage. What distinguishes 17 Amherst Road cannot be captured entirely in numbers or amenities. It is the feeling of arriving home through a private landscape, the warmth of handcrafted wood beneath your hand, and the morning light across the living spaces. It is the view of the fairway beyond the garden, the sound of water moving through the pond, an evening around the fire, and a quiet moment on the porch as the day comes to an end. Set within historic Biltmore Forest and directly along the golf course, 17 Amherst Road is a rare expression of privacy, craftsmanship, and gracious living. It is a home with history that avoids feeling dated, thoughtfully designed for entertaining while remaining equally beautiful in its quiet moments. Surrounded by nature yet wonderfully connected to its neighborhood, it is a home meant to be lived in fully and remembered fondly for years to come.

3 Beds ⋅ 6 Baths ⋅ 4427118 MLS ⋅ ACTIVE Status
Perched at more than 3,500 feet in elevation, 28 Peach Knob Drive offers a rare combination of acreage, privacy and one of the most extraordinary western views in all of Asheville. Set on more than 10 acres, the property captures sweeping, layered mountain vistas stretching across the horizon, with views overlooking Beaver Lake and all of North Asheville below. After extensive renovations by Osada Construction in 2022, the residence has been thoughtfully reimagined while preserving the character of its contemporary mountain architecture: clean lines, open volumes and a design built around the view. Nearly every principal room faces west. In the great room and dining room, expansive windows open the rooms to the landscape. The den, primary bedroom and primary bath share the same outlook, so the view stays with you from morning coffee to last light. Soaring ceilings and generous living spaces take full advantage of the home's remarkable setting. Generous decking spans the back of the home and carries the living space outdoors. It suits quiet mornings above the valley, evening gatherings and long summer dinners at sunset. Because the land falls away below the house, the slope itself protects the vista. It is expansive today and positioned to stay that way. The property itself is equally compelling. Unlike many high-elevation mountain homes, portions of the 10+ acres offer gentle, usable topography with established trails, gardening areas and beautifully landscaped grounds. A waterfall feature and pond create a peaceful focal point, while multiple outdoor living areas provide exceptional spaces to enjoy the changing seasons and dramatic sunsets. The acreage spans three parcels, which gives real flexibility for the future. There is room to consider a guest house, a pool or other amenities. Additional amenities include a three-car garage, workshop, gym, sauna and wine cellar, along with abundant space for recreation and entertaining. Town Mountain Road provides easy year-round access. Downtown Asheville is a mere 10 minutes away, the Blue Ridge Parkway is just 5 minutes, and Asheville Regional Airport is a quick 30 minutes south. It is uncommon to find this elevation, this acreage and this view this close to the city. Private and serene yet remarkably close to the heart of Asheville, 28 Peach Knob Drive presents a distinctive opportunity to own a substantial mountain retreat where elevation, acreage and some of Asheville's most captivating western views come together in one exceptional property.
