Ken Wood Forest Homes for Sale

Ken Wood Forest is a small Lake Norman enclave where shoreline characteristics shape the neighborhood more than a formal amenity package. In Sherrills Ford, it presents as a compact collection of waterfront properties, with the strongest concentration of value along Power Drive and a clear emphasis on cove frontage, docks, and wide water views.

Community Highlights

Homes in Ken Wood Forest span construction years from 1988 to 2020, and recorded lot sizes run from about 24,393 to 47,044 square feet, or roughly 0.56 to 1.08 acres. Waterfront positioning is the central draw. Four of the six recorded listings sit directly on the water, and private docks, protected coves, boating access, and long lake views define the neighborhood more clearly than any single architectural style.

The housing mix is varied instead of formula-driven. One current offering is a Southern Living-inspired residence with five lake-facing balconies and terraces, another sale was a lakefront log cabin, and another was a brick ranch with a basement and more than 200 feet of shoreline. Basement or lower-level living is a recurring theme, which fits the gently sloping lots and creates room for recreation space, second kitchens, workshops, and flexible guest or office areas. Outdoor living also carries real weight here, with screened porches, expansive decks, fire pits, hot tubs, and poolside entertaining appearing in the upper end of the market.
