Be Far Away, Yet Close to Home
North Carolina is for nature lovers. It’s home to breathtaking mountains, pristine beaches, and nearly 150 miles of river designated as “wild and scenic.” The state’s natural beauty makes it one of the best places in the country to build a log cabin home.
Whether you’re looking to leave Charlotte far behind or you want a quick getaway destination with easy access to the city you love, you have options.
Building on the outskirts of the city is the sweet spot for many new log homeowners. You can travel to Charlotte for work or entertainment and come home to peace and quiet under starry skies at night!
If you’re looking for property, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the number of beautiful wooded lots outside the city that go for as little as $5,000 to $10,000 an acre. Carve out a private sanctuary for your family on a budget.
