Lakefront Estate | Pool + Hot Tub + Dock + Sauna | Oasis at Ballycastle

Lake Norman living doesn't get much better than this. Oasis at Ballycastle spreads across three levels and a backyard that stops you in your tracks — six bedrooms, four full baths, two half baths, and room for up to 20 guests to spread out without stepping on each other's toes. Step Inside A custom front door with intricate glasswork sets the tone before you even walk in. Beyond it, an open-concept main level unfolds across gray hardwood floors, where the living, dining, and kitchen areas flow together beneath big windows framing the pool and lake beyond. Sink into the sectional with a movie on the 72" TV, or pull up a stool at the kitchen island and keep the cook company. The chef's kitchen is a dream for group travel — gas stove, top-tier appliances, an island with seating for four, and an eat-in dining nook for six with a front-row view of the water. When it's time for a proper sit-down meal, the formal dining room anchors the space with seating for ten. Where Everyone Sleeps The main-level primary suite features a king bed and a spa-worthy en suite with a walk-in rain shower and a private sauna — crank the heat for a quiet reset after a day on the lake. Two more bedrooms on this floor share a hall bath, one with a queen and one with twin beds. Upstairs, a spacious loft-style room sleeps up to six across three queen beds, with a cozy seating area and full bath of its own — ideal for the teens or cousins who want their own wing. Downstairs, the lower level offers a queen bedroom, a bunk room with two twin-over-full bunks (a hit with the kids), a full bath, and a half bath. A Second Living Space Downstairs The lower level is its own world: a full second kitchen with new appliances, a comfy lounge area with a second 72" TV, gaming console, and a little desk nook for anyone who needs to check in with the outside world. The converted garage is now a proper game room with a ping pong table, love seat, and a full-size fridge stocked with snacks and drinks. The Outdoor Oasis This is where Oasis at Ballycastle really earns its name. Three-foot pavers wind through the backyard, connecting a run of spaces designed for different moods. A small sandy lounge area sits right at the water's edge — grab a chair, dip your toes in, watch the boats drift by. From there, head to the pool and hot tub, backed by a full outdoor kitchen with a grill, stove, fridge, and dishwasher. A screened porch with a wood-burning fireplace offers a shady spot for sunset wind-downs on the sectional. An industrial fan keeps things cool on warm days, there's a half bath right here for convenience, and lawn games like cornhole and life-size Connect Four keep the competition friendly. A TV tucked into the outdoor kitchen means no one has to miss the game. Down at the water, the private dock is stocked with four kayaks, a paddleboard, and life jackets for everyone — plus a catamaran netting area perfect for lounging just above the water with a drink in hand.
