Income-Producing Fourplex on 6.55 Acres Adjacent to Golf
Rare multi-unit opportunity minutes from Lake Lure’s recreational amenities: this purpose-built fourplex (7,244 SF) sits on 6.55 acres directly adjacent to Apple Valley Golf Course and is offered at $2,350,000. Built in 2009 in an Arts & Crafts style, the property is laid out as four generous units — each with a main-level primary bedroom and additional upstairs sleeping/bonus space — designed for comfortable long-term tenancy or high-performing short-term rental operation.
Two of the units include finished basements that function today as offices, dens or recreation rooms; the other two basements are unfinished, providing immediate scope to add livable square footage and boost revenue. Interior finishes include a mix of wood, tile and carpet, and inviting stone gas fireplaces in the living spaces. Each unit features a private deck for outdoor living and views into the wooded lot. Systems include heat pump heating, central air, well water and septic (buyer to verify capacities and condition).
The lot is a standout asset — 6.55 acres gives both privacy and development optionality for an investor or owner-operator. Surface parking is in place with room to expand paved parking and guest areas. The property is positioned to serve multiple market channels: long-term leases to local tenants, short-term vacation guests drawn to Lake Lure, and a hybrid operation that stabilizes cash flow while maximizing peak-season revenue.
This asset will appeal to value-add investors, small portfolio owners, and developers seeking a mountain-market multi-family holding with clear upside. Due diligence items include HOA rules (membership is required), septic/well inspections, and a title review for easements.

268 Wambli Pass, Lake Lure, NC 28746
Lake Lure is a small mountain-lake community prized for boating, hiking and scenic drives. The Apple Valley neighborhood is quiet and low-density, highlighted by the golf course and easy access to Lake Lure’s public beach, restaurants and the iconic Flowering Bridge. The nearby Hickory Nut Gorge and Chimney Rock attractions draw strong weekend and seasonal tourism, supporting both short-term rentals and long-term housing demand in the area.
Outstanding access to golf, lake activities, hiking at Chimney Rock and numerous outdoor recreation options — excellent for STR guests and active tenants.
A factual market snapshot around 268 Wambli Pass.
Lake Lure is a compact resort community with outsized seasonal demand driven by lake activities, hiking at Chimney Rock and scenic drives. Inventory for multi-family and investor-grade properties in the Apple Valley / Lake Lure pocket is limited — a fourplex of this size and lot is uncommon. Median single-family prices in the broader area have been trending up modestly (mid-single-digit annual appreciation), while demand for vacation rentals remains strong during peak months. This listing captures both steady year-round rental demand and elevated seasonal ADRs for short-term guests. Buyers should underwrite both STR and LTR scenarios; finishing unfinished basements or improving operations typically yields the fastest return on investment.
