Two years ago, we built a second home in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We originally intended to sell our mountain cabin once completed, but as it came together we realized we wanted to keep it. If you live in the Atlanta area, you owe it to yourself to take the short ride to the Blue Ridge area, including Blue Ridge, McCaysville, and Murphy, NC,
One of the coolest things about the area is that there are truly four seasons, unlike Atlanta. The people are great, and there are lots of activities to do while you're there. Some of those include fishing, hiking, rafting, and motorcycle riding.
I am amazed at the opportunities in real estate, especially mountain properties, in that area. There are some real deals! If you're thinking about a second home that is less than 2 hours from Atlanta, you should definitely check the Blue Ridge Area.
