Maybe you should look again. šŸ‘€

Same big water view.
Same over-an-acre setting.
Same Lake Cherokee address.

But the price? That changed.

SH22 is now offered at $515,000 — and that changes the conversation.

If you’ve seen it before, saved it, scrolled past it, or you’re just starting your lake house search, this one deserves another look.

SOLD | SR34 LAKE CHEROKEE šŸ”šŸ’™

Every now and then, a Lake Cherokee ā€œunicornā€ comes along.

Charming. Completely move-in ready. Perfectly located. Priced to sell. The kind of place you know won’t sit around waiting.

For 10 years, some very dear friends of mine spent their summers here. They raised their son here, made countless memories here, hosted backyard BBQs here… and I can personally confirm, he smokes some of the best ribs around. šŸ˜‚šŸ’Æ

When they were ready for their next adventure, they called me.

I knew the house would sell itself. It really is that special. But we also created some serious off-market buzz before it ever had a chance to hit the market. And on Day 1, we had three offers, all above list price.

And then came the best part.

The buyers are also dear friends of mine, and we’ve been looking for their Lake Cherokee house since 2023.

Because sometimes Lake Cherokee is a waiting game. The right house, the right location, the right price, they don’t always show up when you’re ready. Sometimes you have to be patient enough to wait for the one that does.

This time, that patience paid off BIG. šŸ’™

One family closes a chapter filled with a decade of memories, and another gets to begin theirs. I did warn them this home is a local watering hole for friendships and they have big shoes to fill. 😜

I know exactly how much they’re going to love this little place I call home and I can’t wait for them to experience itšŸ’•

Congratulations to both of my friends. This was a fun one. šŸ„‚

This one was a RIDE.

I had the privilege of working for my dear friends who trusted me to get the job done. We went under contract on Day 1, only to have that deal fall apart one week before closing. 😩

Not exactly how we planned it.

So we regrouped, went back to market and got it UNDER CONTRACT AGAIN IN ONE DAY. šŸ™ŒšŸ¼

And this time? Closed in SIX DAYS.

Real estate isn’t always about everything going perfectly. It’s about what happens when it doesn’t… the people involved, the communication, the problem solving, and having a team that knows how to get everyone to the closing table.

Your agent matters. Your lender matters. Your title company matters.

Choose your team wisely. šŸ¤

So happy to put a SOLD sign on this one for some pretty special people.

What if the lake house search ended here?

Move-in ready. Completely updated. Three bedrooms. A shop with room for two vehicles + all the lake extras. Screened porch. Boathouse. .62 acres.

And a lake view that might just seal the deal.

Because sometimes you don’t want a project.
You don’t want a ā€œsomedayā€ house.
You want the one that’s ready now.

Unpack. Stock the fridge. Get the boat in the water.

SU5 | Lake Cherokee | $525,000
This one makes lake life pretty easy.

She got it.

The view. The space. The updates. The location. The boathouse. And nearly an acre to go with it.

SR39 is sitting pretty in Island Cove with 2,633 sq ft, 3 beds, 3 baths, a detached garage + 2-stall boathouse.

And now she’s UNDER $800K.

SR39 Lake Cherokee | $799,000

Yeah… she got it.

BACK ON MARKET—and maybe that’s your sign.

14958 CR 2165 D isn’t just a cute, move-in-ready home. It’s a property with options.

Looking for a starter home with room to grow? Start here.

Need space for that shop you’ve been wanting? The additional vacant lots give you room to make it happen.

Looking for an investment? It’s already been operating as a successful short-term rental with additional land that opens the door to expanding that concept. Its proximity to Lake Cherokee is an added bonusšŸ’Æ

Live here. Rent it. Build on it. Grow it.

Sometimes the best property isn’t the one that tells you exactly what to do with it, it’s the one that gives you options.

14958 CR 2165 D is back on the market and ready for its next chapter.
