Lake life awaits at 182 Marina Dr — a compact, well-maintained park-model cottage with a stick-built room addition that expands the living footprint and creates a bright, lake-facing gathering space. The covered front porch and back deck give you outdoor rooms for relaxing after a day on the water or for watching neighbors come and go at the marina. Inside, the split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy for overnight guests while the addition's wall of windows frames water views and lets seasonal breezes through.
Functionally updated: a new heating and air system was installed in 2025, so one of the biggest ownership headaches is already solved. At roughly 700 square feet, this home is intentionally low-maintenance — ideal for a weekend retreat, downsizer, or investor seeking seasonal rental income (confirm community rental rules). The kitchen and dining area flow directly to the added living room, making the compact footprint feel open and purposeful.
Badin Shores Resort amenities are a core part of the appeal: marina and boat ramp access, on-site restaurant, community pool and sandy beach, fishing pier, putt-putt and playgrounds — all within easy walking distance. The lot is modest (about 2,613 sqft) and sited to maximize access to community facilities rather than large private grounds, which keeps upkeep costs low.
This is an excellent entry point to lakeside ownership in the Stanly County portion of the Charlotte metro area. Whether you plan to use it as your personal getaway, a seasonal rental, or a resale flip after a light cosmetic refresh, the property offers immediate water-community lifestyle at an accessible price.
