Culberson Community in Murphy NC

Culberson Community is residential area in Murphy, North Carolina. In fact, it’s largest landmark is a small, humble US Post Office. It only acts as a place to drop mail, have PO Boxes, and purchase stamps/send packages.

Culberson is full of old homes and homesites  on the main road that have been home for local families for generations. In a few cases, you can find old dilapidated homes that have been neglected for years that were once home to a family. If those walls could talk, we’d learn a lot!

Because of its small size, it has only a handful of developments and Turkey Creek is one of them.

Culberson is located just barely North of the Georgia line in North Carolina.  It’s main road is Spur 60 – a four lane road with a left turn lane in the center. There are many side streets of off their such as Shady Grove Road, Culberson Road, Nicholson Road, Raper Road (named after a local family name), and several others.

Culberson has the beautiful Nottley River that runs through much of it. It’s low terrain offers many great places for pasture, cattle, flat land, and even homes with real yards. There are very few true “mountains” here that offer views and high elevations, which some folks certainly are not looking for. If you’re looking for something gentle that’s not hanging off the side of the mountain, Culberson has some really good opportunities to buy real estate.

Culberson has a great location with quick proximity to both Murphy NC and Blue Ridge, GA. Headed South, Spur 60 ties into Mineral Bluff, GA and ultimately Blue Ridge. Headed North, Spur 60 leads you right to the main road through Cherokee County – Highway 64/74.

The Watt Family of St. Augustine, FL Recommends The POLTROCK TEAM at Murphy NC REMAX!

Watt Family at REMAX Client Appreciation PicnicThe Watt family just recently purchased a property from us in Turkey Creek, which is a great Nottley River Community in Murphy NC. They wrote two testimonials – one on paper and one by email. We’ll share them both with you!

Testimonial to Office Manager: I got to meet John by accident. I was working with a real estate agent in North Georgia who basically did not want to be bothered with smaller real estate purchases. Out of frustration, I “Googled” Murphy N.C. and John’s real estate website www.MyMurphy.com came up. I placed a call to him and was immediately impressed with his personable attitude and knowledge of his properties compared to my interests.

John spent all day Friday and Saturday showing us properties that matched the criteria we gave him. On our first trip, we purchase property – a lot of that decision was based on his trust worthiness – he wasn’t selling us a bad deal.

I would absolutely call John for any future needs and have already passed his name and number to my co-workers.

I hope John is able to “ride out” the the lull in real estate the country has managed to find itself in. He would certainly make an excellent mentor to those new in the field. I look forward to working with him for any future transactions.

Email Testimonial: Just wanted to share my experience with the Poltrock team regarding our real estate transaction …. What a breath of fresh air to work with someone who’s sole purpose was to insure customer satisfaction! My family and I made arrangements to visit Murphy during the summer just to ’scout’ the area out for our retirement at a later date. John lined up 2 days worth of prospects from the criteria we gave him – he made us feel very comfortable and welcome in a totally new place. John recommended lodging, food, and even gave us a brief tour of Hiwassee Dam. John’s knowledge of the area and his ability to understand our needs resulted in a purchase in Turkey Creek on our first trip! He was extremely helpful during the ’process’, making a long distance transaction seamless. He also made sure we had comfortable accommodations on our second trip to Murphy just last week – staying at a rental that was as clean and comfortable as our own home. His trust and honesty laid the foundation of our friendship – Big Kudos for John and REMAX of Murphy. I would recommend them to everyone!

There’s both a Flood Plain and Watershed and you have to build your structure of the home above the Flood Plain. For more details on what exactly to do, call the Cherokee County Building Department at 828-837-6730.
  • What is a septic permit and why is it provided? A septic permit gives you permission from the Cherokee County Environmental Health Department to install a residential septic permit on the property you buy. It essentially tells you that your property has good soil and they you can build on it. Before you start construction, you will also need a building permit.
