Pat and Karen Have a Great Experience Buying Nottley River Front Real Estate in Murphy NC

Posted by I Love Murphy on

We’ve been looking around for a river front piece of land we could buy to fly fish on. We called the office about a  piece and happened to catch John. He knew exactly what we were looking at and even was able to tell me why I  didn’t want it. He recommended I look at another piece and I did a drive by and really liked it and ultimately bought it.

We have had several real estate purchases in the Murphy area over the last 14 years. John was the best real estate agent we have been involved with. Keep up the charm and great work!

Bill and Trisha Cason buy their Murphy NC Mountain Chalet from REMAX and The Poltrock Team

Posted by I Love Murphy on

Casons Win iPad (1)When we first started looking to buy a cabin, I came across the REMAX Poltrock Team in Murphy and really liked how they had the listings. Their website was very user friendly, which made it easier and more fun to navigate all the real estate for sale.

When I talked to John, I was impressed by his knowledge and insight about the listings we were interested in. We felt like he was truly looking out for our best interest and not once did I feel like he was pushing just to make a sale or wanted to go on to the next client. At closing, he truly and fairly looked out for both the buyer and seller. Now, we have our very own chalet in the mountains!

I would recommend The Poltrock Team to anyone who is looking at real estate no matter what the purpose – whether buying, selling, or just wanting general information. we are very happy John was our Realtor and honored he is now a friend.

The Hiwassee Dam Hydroelectric Dam in Murphy NC

Posted by I Love Murphy on

The Hiwassee Dam is one of my favorite things to see here in Murphy NC. If I’m showing homes or land in the area, I always love to take folks to see it. At 307 feet, Hiwassee Dam is the third tallest dam in the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) system. It stretches 1,376 feet from bank to bank of the river, and I must admit, is an amazing sight to stand at the bottom of and see just how big it really is. It was part of Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal to provide work for people and help bring the United States out of the Great Depression.

Named after the Hiwassee River, the dam is responsible for creating Lake Hiwassee and generating an impressive 185 Megawatts of power.

History

Construction began on Hiwassee Dam on July 15, 1936, and it officially opened for operation on February 8, 1940. At a price tag of 24 million at that time, it was a sizable, and expensive, undertaking. It had dual purposes – to generate power for the region and provide flood control for the Chattanooga area, which is why you see the waters of Lake Hiwassee lower in the colder seasons of the year.

Building the dam required purchasing 24,102 acres. It took 3,836 acres that had to be completely cleared. What’s even more amazing is that it required 261 families, 462 graves, and 25 miles of roads that had to be completely relocated to a new area.

Directions

So while you’re here in Murphy, you certainly need to go see the Hiwassee Dam. It’s a great area attraction that’s beautiful in its own right. To get to it from Murphy, take 64 West. Turn right on 294. Follow to a right on Hiwassee Dam Access Road. Follow it a few miles and you’ll drive right over the dam.

Murphy NC is Going Green With Solar Power in the Ranger Community

Posted by I Love Murphy on

Because of where we’re positioned with the TVA and availability of power through the Blue Ridge Electric Membership Corporation, Murphy NC is a prime location for solar electricity farms to help power our area. With that said, a new facility is being built on Burger Road in the Ranger Community of Murphy, which is on the western side of Cherokee County.

This new facility is scheduled to be a 990 kilowatt system, which is enough to power 140 homes.  Generating no pollution, it’s a great way to help make Murphy NC Green!

So the next time you come to Murphy NC, you may find it’s even more Green!

Curious about how solar power is shaping Murphy’s future? Let us help you find your place in this growing community. Contact us for murphy nc real estate.
