Set on the point of a peninsula within a gated community, this custom-built modern estate is Lake Tillery's premier offering, a three-story masterpiece where every room frames picturesque lake views. Sold fully furnished with designer pieces and luxury finishes throughout, the home blends dramatic architectural details with resort-caliber outdoor living for a truly rare, move-in-ready waterfront property.
Main-Level
A pivoting white oak front door opens beneath a foyer with a soaring 33' ceiling, setting the tone for the great room beyond, where floor-to-ceiling glass fills the home with natural light. A floating white oak staircase rises through all three levels, with an elevator also serving each floor.
The kitchen is a study in craftsmanship, anchored by leathered quartzite countertops, a five-burner range with dual ovens, dual Miele dishwashers, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and separate freezer, and an oversized island with seating for five and hidden storage. A scullery extends the space with an additional prep sink, two Sub-Zero wine fridges, and custom cabinetry, keeping the primary kitchen pristine for entertaining.
The great room centers around a three-sided glass fireplace with faux Venetian plaster reinforced by steel beams. Nearby, the living room offers a relaxed lounge space, which flows through a minibar area into the office, offering a quiet space to work from home.
Outside, the main level flows through walls of glass to the expansive main-level deck, which includes a dining area, seated lounge area, and a covered porch with two motorized screen options: mesh screens for sun protection and clear vinyl screens for heat retention in the winter.
Upper Level
The primary suite occupies its own wing on the upper level, with vaulted white oak ceilings, a suspended Gyrofocus gas fireplace, and a private deck overlooking the lake. Its ensuite bath is a retreat unto itself, with dual floating vanities, a cosmetic station, heated flooring that is customizable on each side, an oversized walk-in shower built for two, a freestanding concrete soaking tub, and dual private water closets.
Across the upper-level catwalk, the dedicated closet wing offers her and his closets, each with high-end organizational systems, designer lighting, and centerpiece islands, alongside a powder room and a fully equipped laundry room with custom cabinetry, marble countertops, and a sink.
Lower Level
The lower level opens to a resort-style living room centered around a 72" gas fireplace, plus a full bar area, a pool table, a game table, multiple storage rooms, and a drop zone for effortless organization. A bunk room, two additional guest bedrooms, and two guest baths round out the lower level.
Garage + Guest Suite
Through the drop zone off the kitchen, the three-car garage with epoxy flooring is paired with an upper-level bonus suite, a flexible space suited for an additional guest bedroom, home office, exercise studio, or media room, complete with its own wet bar and guest bath.
Outdoor Living
Outdoor amenities elevate this property beyond compare. The lower-level covered patio extends the entertaining space outdoors with a lounge area and a full summer kitchen, featuring a pizza oven, a Big Green Egg, a Yoder smoker, and a zinc-top table with seating for ten, along with an outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day on the water. Stone patios, walkways, and a sweeping stone seat wall create gathering spaces across the grounds, set against synthetic turf and landscape lighting. At the shoreline, a private boathouse offers its own lounge area, an enclosed storage space, and a boat lift, complete with a 2023 22' Barletta pontoon boat that conveys with the home, making lake access as effortless as the rest of the property.
This Lake Tillery estate offers convenient access to nearby marinas, the Tillery Tradition Country Club, and is roughly an hour and twenty minutes to both Uptown Charlotte and Charlotte Douglas International Airport, offering rare seclusion without sacrificing convenience.
Lake Tillery is a 5,000+ acre reservoir with roughly 118 miles of shoreline, formed in 1928 when the Pee Dee River was dammed for hydroelectric power. Today, the lake is owned and managed by Duke Energy, known for its clear water, minimal fluctuation, and a natural, largely undeveloped shoreline that keeps the setting scenic rather than crowded. Tucked into the Uwharrie Lakes Region of central North Carolina, Lake Tillery sits between the Uwharrie National Forest to the west and Morrow Mountain State Park to the north, giving waterfront owners a rare combination of open lake recreation and immediate access to the outdoors.
123 Cove Point sits within reach of three small towns that anchor daily life on the lake:
Mount Gilead is the closest town to the property and the heart of the Lilly's Bridge side of the lake, home to marinas, dining on the water, and an easygoing, small-town Main Street.
Norwood sits along the lake's western shore and carries the local motto "Gateway to Lake Tillery," offering additional marina and public access options.
Albemarle, the Stanly County seat, is the area's largest town and the primary hub for shopping, dining, healthcare, and everyday errands.
Together, these towns give lake residents the best of both worlds: genuine small-town character on the water, with a fuller range of restaurants, shops, and services a short drive away in Albemarle.
Waterfront dining is just minutes from 123 Cove Point, with a wider range of restaurants a short drive into Mount Gilead and Albemarle.
The area is also home to several authentic Mexican restaurants, along with additional favorites like Pizzantica, Little Tokyo, Thai Spice, Rosebrier, Breakfast Nook, and Donut Dinette, giving lake residents an easy variety within a short drive.
123 Cove Point places owners close to three full-service marinas on Lake Tillery, each offering fuel, supplies, and a place to gather on the water.
For owners who prefer to launch their own boat, public access points are available at Clark's Creek, Stony Mountain, Lilly's Bridge, Swift Island, Norwood, and Morrow Mountain State Park.
Lake life at 123 Cove Point pairs easily with a round of golf, with three clubs nearby.
For owners drawn to the outdoors, the surrounding Uwharrie region offers some of the best hiking and adventure terrain in the North Carolina Piedmont.
Despite its quiet, tucked away feel, 123 Cove Point keeps owners well connected.
Whether it is a quiet weekday on the water or a weekend built around dining, golf, and the Uwharrie trails, 123 Cove Point offers a rare balance: true lakefront privacy with an easy reach into everything the Charlotte region has to offer.
