Belmont, N.C. – M/I Homes is the newest addition to the waterfront, master-planned community of McLean, set along five miles of pristine shoreline on Lake Wylie.

M/I Homes will build 50 cottage-style ranch homes in The Conservancy, a village within the 670-acre master-planned McLean community. McLean’s location is extraordinary, next to the Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden and the Carolina Thread Trail, and close to downtown Belmont’s shops and restaurants. Homeowners will have easy access to Lake Wylie and its marina for boating, fishing, and strolling on the shore. Residents of The Conservancy will also enjoy their own pool, clubhouse and bocce ball court, scheduled to open in 2017.

“We loved the beauty of the setting and surrounding area, with its trails, scenic ponds, and peaceful countryside,” says Kevin Clark, M/I’s Area President. “We know homeowners who enjoy outdoor living and an easy-to-maintain home will love it as well.”

Pre-sales have already begun. M/I Homes offers six different ranch home designs in the Conservancy of McLean, which feature new exterior designs and re-imagined floor plans. Most can be built with an optional bonus room or upstairs living room. Outdoor living areas are also an option. Lawn maintenance, Energy Star Certification and a 15-Year Transferable Structural Warranty are all included for every M/I home. Homes range from 1,441 to 2,953 square feet. Prices start from $230s.

Children at McLean will attend highly regarded New Hope Elementary, Cramerton Middle School, and South Point High School. Families also have the option of three state-funded charter schools.

Uptown Charlotte is just 30 minutes away. Other area attractions include golf courses, the Catawba River, the U.S. National Whitewater Center, and the planned Belmont City Park and McLean Point, a waterfront gathering spot.
