www.kevinonlakesinclair.com for more detailed information about Lake Sinclair and the surrounding area. There you will find all kinds of interesting facts about Lake Sinclair. Did you know this lake has an airport? The Baldwin County airport has a 5,500 ft, paved landing strip. Some of our residents fly into the airport and take a car to their lake property.
This particular home is approximately 4,000 finished square feet with room to grow. This 4 bedroom & 3 bath home is a fantastic deal at the asking price. Construction costs in this area for an average quality home is in the $100/sq. ft. range. Prices for a similar, undeveloped, premium, 1.6 acre lot would be in the $170k range. Add in the value of the lot improvements like the max boathouse, seawall, landscaping, retaining wall, sprinkler system, etc. and most potential buyers start to realize this property is an incredible value. I don't think you can even come close if you compare apples-to-apples with any other large lake in the SE. Both the lot and the home are above average quality. At current construction and lot prices, it would probably not be possible to recreate this property for less than $550K. Unfortunately for the sellers, the current market will not support the replacement value of the property.
This home was built by a retired engineer and his wife in 1991. It was built with the sole intent to stand the test of time and pamper the people paying the bills. The original owners sold this home to the current owners in early '04. The current owners are a married couple in their 30's living in the Atlanta area who are planning on relocating to Colorado once the lake property is sold. The asking price is an exceptional bargain, but this property is not a troubled asset sale. The sellers are gainfully employed and financially stable, but understand the current market and have priced the property accordingly.
Like most property, this place is not a good fit for everyone. It is ideal for those buyers looking for a nice neighborhood where people have reasonable pride in home ownership, lots of open living space, over sized rooms, over sized lot, high ceilings with lots of windows and light, quality construction and finishing, grand lake view, privacy, garages and plenty of storage & workshop space. This is a rural setting. For you urban dweller types, this means you can't walk to the shopping center from here. This property would be a fantastic retirement home or a large weekend residence for someone who has a large family or plans to do a lot of entertaining.
