Owning a Family Compound in the North Carolina Mountains

Our Homes Bring Generations Together

The very best and most enjoyable reason to purchase real estate is by far buying a property in which your family will live and grow together, both now and in generations to come.  There is a deep sense of satisfaction in finding the perfect place that you and your family can call home.  Many estate lots at Preserve at Rock Creek offer two building sites, ideal for creating a family compound for multi-generational use.

Some things to keep in mind when searching for the perfect property for your family are the following:

1. Make your first step finding a realtor or buyer's agent that you are confident has your needs, desires, and best interests at heart.  Your realtor can prove to be a lifesaver when you've reached the final hours before closing and the sky looks as though it's going to fall.  Our in-house sales manager, John Thomas, has nearly 30 years experience in the real estate/vacation home industry and knows exactly how it feels to search for a realtor (read his guide to buying a vacation home).  A certified EcoBroker, John is more than qualified and will meet and surpass your expectations.  Far more than that though, he can help you find the home that you simply cannot see your family living without.
2. Once you've found a real estate agent that you trust to help you find a home for your family, it is time to identify the things that are absolute necessities in your search. The most important thing to decide upon is a budget that you are comfortable living with.  In today's market, it is also important to select a home that's value is stable, ensuring that your investment will maintain its value for you and for generations to come.  The Preserve at Rock Creek's property values have held steady, despite the general decline and fluctuation in the real estate market.
3. Once you've established a budget, you need to decide the features that are important to meet the needs of your family. The number of bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, and yard space are all important variables to consider.  These things are important as they affect the lasting enjoyment of the home, both for you and for future generations.  Our homes at the Preserve at Rock Creek have been designed and constructed with both elegance and practicality with the needs of you and your family in mind.  In fact, the Rock Mountain Cottage was the “Best Model Home” Designer’s Choice recipient at the 2011 American Residential Design Awards.  In addition, most properties we offer include a secondary building site which is perfect for a guest house or for establishing your own family compound.
4. Another important thing that must be considered when purchasing a home for your family is the neighborhood. This is more important than many people may realize.  The Preserve at Rock Creek is a gated community conveniently located in the chic mountain village of Cashiers, North Carolina and has a wide variety of local area amenities to satisfy nearly everyone's desires.
5. You should also take the time to look at several properties before deciding on one property over another. The more properties you see, the better the chances are that you will actually find the one perfect property for the needs of your family home. The more homes you see the more you will learn about your likes and dislikes. You will also get ideas about possibilities and things that can be added on to the home you eventually select.  We invite you to take advantage of our Discovery Package and explore all of the homes and estate lots that the Preserve at Rock Creek has to offer.  We welcome you to compare our property to others in the area as we know you will come right back to us.
