$6,000 Price Reduction | Now $69,000!

With nearly 3 acres and 112 feet of waterfront nestled in a quiet, deep cove, this beautiful sloping lot on Lake Rhodhiss deserves a close look! This lot includes a section of cove that is deemed an environmental conservation area by Duke Energy, which doesn't encumber it with any special permits or processes, but makes it non-dockable. Nonetheless, the water is easily accessible and the waterfront portion is ideal for swimming or a kayak launch. There will be no additional development on the land directly across the cove, so the current scenery from the shoreline will not change. Edgewater has one of the strongest and most active, yet friendly and flexible, POAs on the lake. Take a drive around the neighborhood and you will see lots of new development. Land in this neighborhood is becoming scarce. Dues are $660 per year and there is currently a $500 per year special assessment to help build up the road maintenance fund. Minimum build size is 1,400 square feet above grade. If you want views of and access to the lake without the worries of permitting and maintaining a boat dock, this could be the perfect lot for you!

We have some property on the market there. Interior lots and waterfront lots. We've sold 5 there in the past 3 months. Word is getting out - just sayin' 😉

Very little transient traffic means nowhere near the crowds that you see at James and Hickory on the weekends. Don't sleep on this gem!

If you are heading to North Carolina, check out Lake Rhodhiss in the Blue Ridge Mountains. It's peaceful and you can boat, kayak, and fish the waters.

How a home is priced doesn’t just affect the final sale price — it affects how the home sells, how long it takes, and how much leverage a seller has along the way. In this episode of Catawba Valley Horizons, we start with a quick snapshot of the most recent real estate activity across Burke, Caldwell, Catawba, and McDowell Counties, then walk through three real-world examples that show how different pricing strategies tend to influence buyer response and time on market. These examples are presented using statistics only — no photos, no addresses, and no behind-the-scenes assumptions — because every real estate transaction has details the public never sees. This episode isn’t about right or wrong decisions. It’s about how the market typically responds to price. If you’re thinking about selling, buying, or investing and want a clear, data-driven conversation about what strategy fits your goals, I’m always happy to help.

Two For...Saturday?

Congrats to our two separate sellers who were able to get both of their lots under contract this morning! The Retreat at Waterside is a hidden gem in this area, and we had a buyer who recognized it 😎
