The popular Denver community of Lakewood offers large home sites and some waterfront lots along the western shore of beautiful Lake Norman while taking advantage of Lincoln County’s lower taxes and great schools.
The community is accessible via Webbs Road on Burton Lane and is just a 5- to 10-minute drive to your everyday shopping needs.
Living in Denver allows you to take advantage of the quiet side of lake life and escape the city and more congested areas of the lake along the eastern shore.
It is still an easy 15-mile drive to Huntersville and Birkdale for a day of shopping, eating and the movies and less than 30 miles into the Charlotte metro area for work or a day or weekend of the city life, sporting events and museums. The new Village at Sherrills Ford development at Highway 150 and Slanting Bridge Road is only about 12 miles away once completed. 
Lakewood, as its name suggests, centers around tranquility of lake and wooded lots. The neighborhood, started in 2007, provides gated boat storage. The public boat ramp is at the end of Burton Lane just outside the neighborhood!
There are large interior, water view and waterfront home sites and new as well as resale homes. Because the community is a collection of custom homes, the styles and sizes are varied. There is everything from traditional to French Provincial and 3,000 square feet to more than 6,500 square feet.
