About This Home

A rare development opportunity in one of Charlotte’s fastest-growing corridors. 16716 Watermelon Lane offers 3.14 acres of land in the desirable Steele Creek/Lake Wylie area, surrounded by new construction, infrastructure expansion, and long-term growth planning. The property is being marketed strictly for its land value and development potential. Positioned within the N1-A zoning district, this tract allows for residential dwellings on lots of 10,000 sq ft or greater, creating a clear path for a small subdivision, estate-lot community, or a strategic hold for future appreciation. With three potential road access points, the site provides flexibility for layout, traffic flow, and builder-friendly design. Utility access is already nearby—Charlotte Water’s 8-inch PVC line borders the property, significantly reducing development hurdles and improving feasibility for multiple homesites. Located just minutes from Lake Wylie, The Palisades, and the rapidly developing River District, this property sits in a high-demand pocket known for its blend of natural beauty and modern growth. Shopping, schools, recreation, and major transportation routes are all within easy reach. Whether you’re a builder, investor, or long-term planner, this acreage offers the rare combination of zoning, access, and location that makes projects pencil. Land only. Home conveys at no value.
