Two Amazing Easy-to-Build Lakefront Properties for Sale in Master-Planned Cashiers, NC Development

Nestled in Western North Carolina’s beautiful Tuckasegee Valley along the shoreline of Bear Creek Lake, the community of Bear Lake Reserve is a vacationer’s paradise. Bear Lake Reserve marries the concepts of community, luxury, leisure and nature together with amazing results. Whether you’re seeking a mountain vacation home or a primary residence, Bear Lake Reserve offers many options for the home buyer – and Silver Creek Real Estate Group is proud to present you with two of the latest and most exciting offerings.

The first lakefront property for sale (MLS#74040) in our arsenal is nestled on a peninsula that comes complete with a very gentle topography and easy-to-build, virtually flat homesite. With 584 feet of lakefront, panoramic views of both the lake and mountains, and an installed dock – this lot is the epitome of lakefront living at its best. Add to that a short walk to The Lake Club – considered to be the crown jewel of Bear Lake Reserve with its lakefront pool, outdoor community hearth, theater room, fitness center, restaurant and tavern – and you could easily experience the best of both worlds. One day you may elect to enjoy the seclusion of your mountain retreat by whiling away the afternoon on your back deck overlooking the lake, and the next you can take part in a myriad of community events like a summer concert at the picturesque Amphitheatre at Golden Farm, a golf tournament at the Nicklaus Design Bear Lake Golf Club, a picnic Bear Lake’s Mill Pond Pavilion, or a playdate at family-friendly Bear Creek Park.  This property is offered at $650,000.

The second lakefront property for sale (MLS#73993) in our Bear Lake Reserve inventory features over 400 feet along the shoreline of Bear Creek Lake, as well as another very gentle, easy building site. A very charming and serene small creek runs through the lot. With your dock already installed, a wealth of fishing, swimming, boating, skiing, and other water sport experiences await just beyond your doorstep. Enveloped by the tranquility of the Smoky Mountains National Park, every hiking adventure can be new and different. Within a stone’s throw of both the historic village of Cashiers and the resort town of Highlands, you are afforded easy access to all of the world-class dining, eclectic shopping, and unique culture that Western North Carolina has to offer. There is no shortage of things to do at Bear Lake Reserve, but residents are always welcome to enjoy their time at the lake doing absolutely nothing at all. This property is listed at $625,000.
