Boundary Line Markings Of Public Land At Lake Lanier! Understanding Where The Private Property Ends And The Public Land Begins!

Boundary Line Markings Of Public Land At Lake Lanier!  Understanding Where The Private Property Ends And The Public Land Begins!

One of the biggest factors in understanding waterfront property at Lake Lanier is understanding and identifying property lines and boundaries when walking the property. There's a learning curve and some education that is required in order to understand where the private property ends and the public lands begin. This boundary is commonly known as the Corps Line.  Our friends over at the U.S. Army Corps Of Engineers have put together this handy guide for understanding boundary markers on the public land. Take a look at the slides below and keep these tips in mind when walking Lake Lanier property. Learn to keep your eyes wide open when you approach markers of this type, and understand what each marker means. This will help you in understanding the private, waterfront property that you are evaluating and how it abuts the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers land.

Congratulations To Our Latest Lake Lanier Home Buyer Clients On The Purchase Of This Scenic Waterfront Home!

Congratulations To Our Latest Lake Lanier Home Buyer Clients On The Purchase Of This Scenic Waterfront Home!

From the beginning of our property search, our clients knew that they ultimately wanted to be waterfront on Lake Lanier's northern side.  Whether on the Chestatee River or on the Chattahoochee River, location wasn't as important as having a calmer, quieter setting for relaxing and having smooth water for barefoot skiing!



We looked at homes on Wahoo Creek in Gainesville as well as Toto Creek in Dawsonville.  In the end, our clients decided on this bargain property on the Chestatee River in Murrayville.  If you want value and a lot of lake property for the money, Murrayville has a lot to offer.  This can be especially true in the community of Mountain View Lake Estates on Lake Lanier.  We've completed quite a few sales in this community over the years, and there are some attractive homes at attractive prices if you'll venture this far north on the lake.

Our latest clients purchased this large four bedroom, three and a half bath home and got a fantastic deal!  Many thanks to Tracy Archer of PalmerHouse Properties for her expert representation of the seller in this transaction!  Take a look at the pricing, photos and listing details at the following link...
