Living Large by the Lake

Sold for $3,100,000 (3.5% over asking)
4 Bed | 4 Bath | 4,316 Sq Ft | 4.37 Acres | Built 2022

This property was the undisputed showstopper of Q3 - selling above list price and proving just how hot the Beaver Lake market continues to be. Designed for both elegance and comfort, the home boasts 649 feet of lake frontage, cove protection, and a private 2-slip dock with lifts for both boats and PWCs.

Inside, soaring ceilings frame a grand fireplace and expansive living/dining area, while the oversized chef’s kitchen features quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and top-tier stainless appliances — a dream setup for entertaining. The primary suite is a private retreat, with spa-inspired ensuite and tranquil lake views. Downstairs, the walkout level opens directly to the water and includes a game room, family room, bonus office, and two additional guest suites.

Outdoor living shines here with multiple decks, a hot tub, and gardens with a greenhouse, offering the perfect balance between lake lifestyle and modern luxury.

Catching Dreams with 100 Acres on Beaver Lake

Sold for $3,000,000 (22.1% below asking)
4 Bed | 5 Bath | 6,023 Sq Ft | 106.7 Acres | Built 2000

Tucked away on over 100 acres of pristine land along Beaver Lake, this estate represents one of the most unique sales in recent years. The main home spans more than 6,000 square feet and was designed to capture lake views from nearly every room. With vaulted ceilings, a mix of modern and rustic finishes, and multiple fireplaces, it combines grandeur with cozy livability.

What truly set this property apart was its scale: a guest house, six private boat slips, and acres of wooded privacy - offering buyers the rare combination of direct lake access and a sprawling recreational playground. While it ultimately closed below asking, the sale highlights the allure of large, private lakefront estates that rarely hit the market.

For someone seeking an “all-in-one” retreat - boating, entertaining, and total seclusion - Dream Catcher lived up to its name.

Bridgewater Estates Residence with Stunning Views and Equally Stunning Price

Sold for $2,550,000 (14.4% below asking)
4 Bed | 5 Bath | 5,906 Sq Ft | 2 Acres | Built 2014

Luxury living isn’t limited to the lake - Fayetteville continues to command attention for its premier neighborhoods, and this Bridgewater Estates residence proved just that. Spanning nearly 6,000 square feet on two acres, this home was built for refined living with a focus on entertaining.

Highlights included a resort-style saltwater pool and spa, outdoor fireplace, and expansive covered patios perfect for gatherings year-round. Inside, the thoughtful floor plan offered a chef’s kitchen, dedicated home office, and a spacious primary suite with spa bath. The property also featured five garage bays, smart home wiring, and high-end finishes throughout.

While it sold under its original list price, it remains one of the largest and most notable sales in Fayetteville for 2025 — showcasing continued buyer demand for suburban estates with privacy, space, and resort amenities.
