Tucked along a quiet, gently winding country road just outside of Denver, you’ll find something increasingly rare near Lake Norman, the opportunity to design and build a home that is entirely your own. Welcome to Sifford. This small enclave of just 20 custom homes is quietly set among the trees, where large homesites and thoughtfully designed residences create a neighborhood that feels private, established, and intentionally small. Homes here are already valued between $1M and $1.75M+, offering buyers the opportunity to build in a proven luxury setting while creating a home tailored specifically to their lifestyle. This homesite spans nearly three-quarters of an acre and offers a flat, build-friendly landscape with a blend of open space and mature pine trees. Backing to woods and positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac street, the property provides flexibility in designing a home that balances privacy with outdoor living. With a minimum home size of 2,500 square feet and architectural guidelines that protect the character of the neighborhood while still allowing creative freedom, buyers can design a residence that reflects their personal vision. Future homeowners will work with respected custom builder Helms Construction Group, known for projects in communities such as The Peninsula, The Point, and Ballantyne Country Club. Buyers may collaborate directly with the builder, architect, and designer to create a fully custom home designed around the way they want to live, from expansive kitchens and outdoor entertaining spaces to detached garages that complement the main residence. Life here is about enjoying the Lake Norman lifestyle while still having the space and privacy many buyers are searching for. Spend weekends on the water at nearby marinas on Lake Norman, meet friends for dinner or an evening stroll at Birkdale Village just 15 minutes away, or enjoy the convenience of being approximately 20 minutes from Charlotte Douglas International Airport and about 25 minutes from Uptown Charlotte. The homesite offers natural gas and fiber internet with underground utilities already in place, and a soil permit has been issued for septic. Families will also appreciate access to the highly regarded East Lincoln school district along with nearby private school options. For buyers who love the Lake Norman area but have yet to find the right home, this property offers something different, the opportunity to create it.
