Lake Norman Real Estate and NC Homes for Sale

Sailing near NorthView Harbour

In my past article How to Predict the next Lake Norman hot-spots I started a series about three up and coming communities along the shores of Lake Norman:  Denver, Troutman and now Sherrills Ford and Terrell.

Just north of Denver, located in southeastern Catawba County with wonderful street names like Molly’s Backbone and Slanting Bridge, are the two small but growing towns of Sherrills Ford and Terrell.  Once considered one of Lake Norman’s best kept secrets, these two quaint towns are committed to holding on to their agricultural traditions and to preserving their rural beauty despite being targeted for significant growth in the next five years.

If you have been reading my articles about life and real estate in Lake Norman you already know how I feel about Trader Joe’s and what a wonderful day it was when they opened their new store off Exit 18.  Well, when I heard that The Fresh Market was coming to our Lake Norman area in late 2008 I was intrigued but didn’t realize how exciting this will be until I visited their website.

Located just north of Mooresville along Lake Norman between exit 42 and 45 on the I-77, Troutman is considered to be a reasonable commuting distance to not just Charlotte but Greensboro and Winston Salem.  It truly is at the very center of our rapidly growing economic region.

• Keep up with news about traffic, road widening and improvements (both town and state)

• Know where the latest Lowes, WalMart or Harris Teeter have been or are being built.

It started a few weeks ago when tree crews were out cutting down and clearing sections along parts of Brawley School Rd. 

At first I wasn't sure what was happening so I talked with a few of the businesses along Brawley School Road.  Medicap Pharmacy told me they had to be in their new location on Stutts Road by the second week in December and Cheyl Lynn's Dry Cleaners began construction to remove the front half of their building and reconfigure their existing building so that their business can stay where it is.
