Ranch Homes for Sale

Lake Norman, North Carolina, is the state’s largest man-made freshwater lake. It was the result of the construction of the Cowans Ford Dam established in the early 1960s. With five hundred and twenty miles of shoreline in multiple counties, it is an excellent place to buy a home just twenty miles from Charlotte. Parts of Lake Norman extend into Mecklenburg, Lincoln, Iredell, and Catawba Counties. Because of its massive area and the fact it borders several towns and cities in different counties, the real estate at Lake Norman is diverse and includes something for everyone. Among the popular homes at Lake Norman are several ranches. Ranch homes near Lake Nortman include single-story properties on and off the water. Regardless of their location, ranch homes offer homebuyers many advantages.

The advantages of living in a Lake Norman ranch home include one-level living without having to haul laundry or the vacuum cleaner up and downstairs. Without multi-levels, the risk of falling is decreased, life is easier on the knees, and it is easier to escape in the event of a fire. Additionally, noise doesn’t travel as easily across a ranch house compared to through floors, so ranch homes are generally quieter than multi-story homes. Moreover, ranch homes are typically easier to sell because they are always in demand, and this is even more true as baby boomers seek single-story homes in which to spend their golden years.

Other advantages of ranch homes include an open floorplan that often combines the family room, living room, and dining room into a single space that opens into the kitchen. This feature makes ranches great for hosting family dinners and holiday celebrations. Popular among the Lake Norman ranch homes are the waterfront ranch homes at Lake Norman. Lake Norman waterfront ranch homes are perfect for those seeking easy access to recreation opportunities, and beautiful views. Whether you are interested in a waterfront or non-waterfront Lake Norman ranch home for sale, we would love to provide you with more detailed information about currently listed properties, so please do not hesitate to contact us as soon as it is convenient.

Here is your chance to purchase a property with so much potential with a lot just right under 2 acres in Indian Land (1.92 acres). Located in a market that is still on the rise and within a close proximity of well-established subdivisions you can have the enjoyment of no HOA restrictions being located outside of these developments. The existing structure does require some remodeling and repair but still leaves room for a reasonable budget for renovating and getting this manufactured home back in proper condition. The primary bedroom bath has been removed but is currently converted into an open closet area. There is also an opportunity for someone looking to do a complete rebuild and possibly a sub dividable lot within a high demand area. Making note only site built & modular homes can be constructed if pre-existing manufacture home is demoed and not plan to rebuilt within a 6 month period. Lancaster Zoning confirmed that a new manufactured home could be grandfathered if it is built within 6 month period. Current owner will have to provide 6 months of active utility bills to get this granted. The MDR zoning for our subject allows for property to be subdivided with a minimum lot size of 10,000 sq ft per lot. The Lancaster zoning confirmed it is possible that a potential of 4-5 lots could potentially go on this property if it could be confirmed for sewer and water requirements for each lot to pass inspections. Just minutes away from Ballantyne as the property is near the SC/Charlotte NC border. Agent, please review agent remarks for pertinent details.
