The Sanctuary, a lakeside community on Lake Wylie in Charlotte, N.C., proves that it’s possible for a community to be idyllic and ideally situated just minutes from a business and cultural hub. Generously sized wooded lots, ranging from two to 13 acres, allow owners the freedom to build multiple structures – from guest cottages to work studios. Many of our residents and builders employ green-building practices to create their custom homes. Located in the Sanctuary, The Camp & John James Audubon Lodge is a 17-acre waterfront amenity area with swimming pools, tennis courts, fitness center, a boating center and more. www.thesanctuary-crescent.com
