Want to live on a North Carolina ‘island’? #shorts

The most expensive property in the Charlotte area just hit the market at a whopping $22 million sale price, but the utter seclusion of the property may entice people who value their privacy.

The two-story, 11,505-square-foot property is called Merancas Island which is on Lake Norman in the western edge of Huntersville, just a few miles west of Interstate 77 at exit 25. It's around 20 miles north of Uptown Charlotte.

It's important to clarify that it's not technically an island because it's not surrounded completely by water. It's more of a peninsula. It's only accessible by boat or by entering the private, gated Island Drive.
