Island Point by AvantStay | Sleeps 18 | Dock

Nestled in a quiet cove just off the main channel of Lake Norman, with 100+ feet of shoreline, is a magical place where you and your family can go to make special memories. Island Point is a quaint home with unique features that will wow you! Just to name a few: The captain's window (an observatory from inside the house that overlooks the exquisite lake) and the boat house that leads down to the dock, which holds your very own sandy beach area! You won't want to pass on this exceptional home! Island Point is a custom-built home with large double glass doors. Upon entry via the portico, you are greeted with a formal living room and columned dining area with gleaming hardwoods and an inviting table to seat 8. Through the beautifully arched doorway, you will be led to an open area with a fully stocked kitchen, an eat-in area, and a comfortable family room with a large TV. This is a great place to hang out as a group while family meals are being prepared. Sliders from the eat-in area take you directly out to the deck, furnished with seating and tables to hang out while grilling (propane provided). The main level boasts a large primary suite with heated flooring and a large en-suite bathroom! The primary suite also has sliders to the main-level deck, so grab your favorite book and a cup of coffee for some early morning lakefront solitude. The main level has another room with a king bed using the full bathroom in the hall. A laundry room is conveniently located off the main level kitchen. The upper level has a quaint reading nook at the top of the stairs stocked with bean bags, as well as two bedrooms and a Jack and Jill full bath. A bunk room hosting two sets of bunk beds (one twin-over-twin, the other twin-over-full, sleeping five total) is perfect for a giant kid's sleepover! The other bedroom has two queens with beautiful new furnishings & bedding. The lower level is where all the fun and games will take place. Designed with fabulous architectural flair made for entertaining, there is just so much to do here: play pool, foosball, & everyone's favorite - air hockey! There are two seating areas, each with new, large, comfortable couches and TVs. There is a full bar on the lower level with bar seating for 10. The bar area can serve as a second kitchen with an oven/ range, microwave, beverage cooler, ice maker, mini fridge, sink, and dishwasher. A table has been thoughtfully placed on the lower level for cards, puzzles, or eating! The lower level has two different sleeping options: a bedroom with 2 queen beds or a queen sleeper sofa near the air hockey table. For lake entertaining, you will enjoy the impressive screened Boat House with its new sectional sofa. Head down to the dock, where you'll find a boat slip and your very own sandy beach area!
