Firepit, Covered Dock, & Wraparound Porch The Porchlight is a modern lakefront escape where nearly every room frames the water. Enjoy year-round deep water, a covered dock, kayaks, a lakeside firepit, and a sprawling grassy yard. Inside, an open layout with a chef’s kitchen and oversized island flows into cozy living spaces with Smart TVs and stylish finishes. Designed for groups, this retreat makes every moment on Lake Norman unforgettable. Welcome to The Porchlight, a newly built 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home where the open-concept living room takes center stage. Designed with gatherings in mind, this bright and airy space frames the lake at every angle and creates the perfect backdrop for connection—whether you’re curling up for movie night, hosting friends, or simply soaking in the views. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a spacious ensuite bath and sweeping lake views that greet you each morning. Two additional upstairs bedrooms and one on the main level provide flexibility and comfort for groups of all sizes. Nearly every window keeps the water in sight, making the lake the heart of your stay. The beautiful kitchen is fully equipped for everything from casual snacks to full meals. An oversized island seats six and serves as the primary dining space—ideal for family-style dinners, board games, or early-morning coffee overlooking the lake. Step outside to a lush, level lawn that gently slopes to year-round deep water. Spend afternoons paddling with the provided kayaks, lounging on the covered dock, or gathering at the lakeside firepit under the stars. Multiple seating areas make it easy to relax while kids play or friends share a drink at sunset. Throughout the home, you’ll find Smart TVs, modern finishes, and cozy touches that make your stay seamless. As with all Wishlist homes, everything is included—from linens and towels to soaps and coffee—so you can simply arrive and start enjoying the lake. Whether you’re here for quiet mornings on the porch, evenings by the firepit, or full days of lake adventures, The Porchlight blends modern comfort with timeless lake living—an inviting retreat you’ll want to return to again and again. 🕸️ Spider webs outside? We de-web and treat docks and porches regularly, but spiders can rebuild a web in just 30–60 minutes. Lake life! ⏰ Can I check in early or check out late?
