There is something about water, isn’t there? Everyone wants a lake house, but few can afford it. Even our own Lake Lure in Rutherford County has property prices you would find in, say, California. Million dollar lots with multi-million dollar houses. Mountain Creek Land Company would like to offer a solution to this dilemma.

Wouldn’t it be grand if you could have a view of a beautiful 20 acre private lake? And wouldn’t it be fantastic if that land went right to the water’s edge, so nothing could get between you and the lake? And maybe it’s an acre? Maybe almost two acres? How about a little peninsula into that lake that you could call your own, that actually has level land, and a park-like setting right next to the water?

This property exists in Rutherford County, in western North Carolina, ten minutes from town. And the price? It is not $100K or even $50K. It is available now for $42,900. Yes, you read that correctly. Oops. You waited too long. It's SOLD. And it was worth every penny. When can you come and take a look at the other one (photo and caption)? This is a lightly restricted community, so you won’t have to drive through single-wide mobile homes to get here. The roads are paved, and the community is gated. What are you waiting for?
