Listen to the rushing river as you watch dawn break over the mountains.  If that's your idea of the perfect home site, you'll love this 2.5 acre riverfront lot at River Ridge in Murphy, North Carolina.

 

Build your dream getaway here in the cool Southern mountains.  The building site is on a ridge with long range views to enjoy Nature's ever-changing show.  This lot runs all the way down to the Hiwassee River, so you'll never have anyone obstructing your views of the river or the mountains.

     

Whether you're fly fishing for native trout, kayaking downstream on a warm summer day or having a picnic by the water, you'll love being on the river in our mild 4 season climate.  The Hiwassee River becomes Lake Hiwassee just a few miles downstream, surrounded by thousands of acres of US Forest Service.

Murphy is two hours from Atlanta, Chattanooga and Knoxville, making it the perfect weekend getaway.  You can leave work on Friday and be at your mountain home in time to grill a steak on the deck. We're located midway between Florida and the Midwest and Northern states so it's a convenient spot for extended family gatherings during the holidays.

 In River Ridge, you're just a mile from the Cherokee Hills golf course.  The John C. Campbell Folk School is about two miles down the road.  It's a world renowned facility dedicated to keeping the Appalachian folk arts alive and you can take week long classes all year long on subjects like quilting, woodworking and folk music.

 Bring your floor plan or choose one of our popular mountain chalet designs.  We have a builder who can help you create your vacation getaway or retirement home.

Kate,

Photos are beautiful. I think I felt some splashes of water. Best of luck. This should go quickly to anyone who has any love of the out of doors.

Give me a couple of inner tubes and I could simply live on the river.

I am with Russel but add a margarita in a water bottle with a lid (can you tell I do that often?)  There is a river up north in Utah called the Virgin river near Zion.  I dream of living on that river some day in Springdale with a Bed and Breakfast!  The lot price you have posted seems very economical!
