Introducing 16215 Lakeside Loop Lane - a meticulously maintained and highly upgraded Portico plan in The Courtyards on Lake Norman, one of Cornelius' most desirable 55+ adult lifestyle communities. Step onto the inviting extended covered porch and into the spacious foyer, where your first impression is one of warmth and open design. From here, the home unfolds beautifully into the bright, main living area, where large windows fill the space with natural light and offer a peaceful view of the home's beautifully landscaped private courtyard. The open-concept kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a large island, and elegant finishes that flow effortlessly into the dining area-creating the perfect setting for everyday living and entertaining. Just off the dining area, a den or office with custom built-ins provides a quiet place to work or unwind. Designed with a thoughtful split-bedroom layout, this home places the owner's suite at the rear for added privacy. The suite includes a spacious walk-in closet and a luxurious bath featuring dual vanities and the optional no-threshold walk-in shower.

Enclosed by an attractive privacy fence and lush, upgraded landscaping, the courtyard features a charming bubbling fountain and the optional covered porch, creating an inviting space to relax or entertain outdoors. Additional highlights include step-free entry, a spacious two-car garage, and pride of ownership that shows throughout. The original owners have only used the home seasonally and maintained it with exceptional care-it truly shows like new. Residents of this highly coveted Epcon community enjoy a resort-style clubhouse, fitness center, pool, walking trails with lake access for kayaking, and a range of services including lawn care, exterior maintenance, and more-offering a truly low maintenance, adult lifestyle in a convenient Cornelius location near The Peninsula Golf Club, The Peninsula Yacht Club, Jetton Park, popular Birkdale Village, shopping, dining, and just a short walk along the sidewalk on Nantz Road to Ramsey Creek Park.
