Nantz Road runs out onto a peninsula on Lake Norman, and the waterfront house at 18326 Nantz Rd was completed there in 2026 with six bedrooms, seven baths and a reported 5,703 square feet. The September 24, 2026 closing at $4,438,203 was the week’s highest reported sale in the Charlotte metro area. The property previously changed hands for $900,000 in 2025, before the current residence was completed in 2026.
The design draws on California-inspired architecture and uses white oak throughout, in wide-plank floors, architectural ceiling beams and kitchen cabinetry, alongside custom millwork, large black windows and zellige tile. A glass pivot door opens the entry and a floating glass staircase sits at the center of the plan. The kitchen is built around an oversized Taj Mahal quartzite island and a plaster range hood, with Thermador appliances including a 48-inch dual-fuel range, and a scullery behind it holds a farmhouse sink and wine storage.
The primary suite is on the main level and faces the water, with a freestanding soaking tub and a walk-in shower. Each secondary bedroom has an en-suite bath, and a guest suite sits above the attached three-car garage. The backyard holds a pool and spa and covered terraces, a new deep-water dock reaches the lake, and Ramsey Creek Beach is across the peninsula.
