Want to live at Lake Murray and enjoy this beautiful lake without having to pay the high prices for waterfront homes? 
I’ve got a great solution… Check out my TWO new home listings with Lake Murray access for sale in Night Harbor subdivision near Chapin, South Carolina. The big benefit to each of these home is that you will get a personal boat slip in the community marina. The initial fee has been paid for by the builder.
These two homes are built by Tim Broome of Lexington Development & Builders. I’ve sold 3 of his all brick homes in this same community. Now he has two more for sale that are close to completion. They can be finished quickly for your quick closing and move-in. NOW is an especially great time to buy a home with really LOW mortgage rates (around 5%).
