One visit to the foothills of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in Western North Carolina and you'll see why so many people from all over the world are moving to this area. We have it all, and everything else is only a short drive away! The mountains offer snow skiing at beautiful resorts with breathtaking fall foliage. Destinations include Blowing Rock, Boone, Beech Mtn, Banner Elk, Seven Devils, Linville and Grandfather Mtn. Hike the Mountains to Sea trail from Clingman's Dome to Nags Head, and then turn south around the bend to Sunset Beach. The waves and hamlets along the coast will call you back for each season. From one end of the state to the other, North Carolina is a friendly, welcoming state that we know you will love! To help you find your way around, we have provided informational links below about our the Greater Hickory Metro and beyond.
If you are considering building a home, we will personally introduce to you licensed NC contractors to make sure your are well cared for during the construction process. Having a contractor on the property from the very beginning will save you money and heartache. Lake Hickory Realty has a special relationship with the builders to share with you. Take a peek at their websites, but, ultimately you will meet a contractor through your agent before purchasing the property.
For further assistance, please use our Online Request Form. We will be glad to answer your questions.
