We’d like to extend a “welcome home” to the new owner of the largest home sold in Charlotte history.

Listed by Ben Bowen of Global Real Estate Advisor for Premier Sotheby’s International Realty - Lake Norman, 9235 Sweetleaf Pl. boasts over 17,000 sqft of luxury with 7 bedrooms, 9.5-bathrooms, and proximity to Lake Norman.

Built by Arcadia, a Charlotte-based custom home builder, the speculative mansion sold for $5.6 million + features amenities like a wet bar, theater, and vaulted ceiling. Plus, the new owners can relax in the pool or grill on the two-story back patio.

“This is a groundbreaking sale for Charlotte and the Lake Wylie area. It’s the largest home ever sold through MLS in Charlotte and it’s the most expensive home ever sold through MLS on Lake Wylie,” said Bowen. “The home is located on an 11-acre peninsula with over 1,900 ft of water frontage providing an incredibly private waterfront retreat while still having convenient access to Charlotte.”

Be right back, we’re still going through the photos of this home.
