NEW LISTING: A Lake Burton Bargain!

The phrase "A Lake Burton bargain" could very well be an oxymoron with current listing prices averaging around $1.8M, but this new listing, at just $735,000, is an incredible gem that won't last long. It's the perfect 3 bedroom / 2 bath get-away for a water lover looking for a manageable, low maintenance lake house. This home is perfect for two things: relaxing - it's updated, move-in ready and there's no yard to mow AND adventure - the location is ideal for water-sports, hiking and golf. This home sits right at the water's edge with 177 feet of shoreline. The beautiful views looking out across the lake are highlighted by the natural setting across the huge quiet cove.

Only a handful of homes in this area of the lake get to experience the advantage of living right by the Tallulah River. It's a water-sports enthusiast's dream! Right from your dock you can paddle board, kayak or canoe (even fish) up the river and experience the cool clear water and tranquility. The covered single-slip dock has an electric lift for your boat and 2 lifts for your jet skis that you'll want to use to explore the other 2775 acres and 62 miles of shoreline on Lake Burton.

Right out your front door you can hike to waterfalls, creeks, rivers, mountains and the Appalachian Trail is nearby too. From this home it's an easy 10 minute drive to Waterfall Club, a private golf club with a signature second hole, where a natural waterfall cascades 215 feet from tee to green. Waterfall Club also has a 52,000 square foot Athletic Center complete with a sauna, spa, junior Olympic swimming pool, indoor sports complex and helicopter pad.
