Blue Ridge Mountain Retreat – 1+ acre home site in Murphy, NC

If you’ve been thinking about getting some land to build a house to retreat to in the mountains at a spectacular price, you’ve come to the right place.  This lot in Murphy, NC is 1.23 acres nestled in a nice little subdivision that’s just about 15 minutes from Downtown Murphy.  The lot has nice homes on either side of the property and electric is readily available. From the road (Hannel Dr.), the property has a future driveway area cleared down to two flat tiers that have been leveled out with a slope between them.  Slopes are common in the area, so houses are typically built with a “lookout basement” allowing you to enjoy a second deck. The property is technically part of an HOA that has the right to charge up to $100 per year for road maintenance.  However, this has not happened in several years and the road is in good shape.  See restrictions in the “Zoning” section below. The property is only a couple minutes from the Hanging Dog Recreation Area, where you can bring a boat/kayak or camp out. The neighborhood is right off the highway so it’s easy to get to.

This lot is 10-15 minutes from the heart of town.  Murphy is a quaint town with a lot of charm. You have boutique clothing stores, restaurants, antique stores, and other fun spots to visit. Don’t miss out on the Flea Market, where you can buy produce or shop for other antiques and oddities. Trust me, it is an experience.  Murphy also lays claim to the brand new Harrah’s Cherokee Valley Casino. This was built within the last few years so it’s in great shape. It actually is quite large and when I went had tons of slot machines, blackjack tables, craps tables, roulette, etc. Murphy also provides all the necessities, such as an Ingles grocery store, a Walmart, restaurants, shopping, and more.  It’s the right size town for someone looking to escape the big city life, while also maintaining access to everyday conveniences. My family and I LOVE to visit this area and I’d say some of the best family memories we have were built here on vacation. It’s a great place to unwind.

Atlanta, Asheville and Chattanooga are all about two hours away, offering easy access to major cities and airports.  The assessed value on this property is $10,600, and several similar lots have sold in the neighborhood for over $20,000.  I’ve decided to price this well below that in order to give one lucky buyer an incredible deal.  Also, don’t forget our 90 day guarantee.  If for any reason you aren’t satisfied with the property, we’ll buy it right back from you within the first 90 days, no questions asked.

So if you’re looking for that great spot in the mountains at an unbeatable price, look no further.  Deals like this don’t come around often.
