A Waterfront at Lake Monticello - The Perfect Second Home

A waterfront home at Lake Monticello is the perfect choice for a second home.  Although the majority of the homeowners at Lake Monticello live in the community year round, we are also seeing a number of clients from Northern Virginia who have discovered that a waterfront home at the Lake makes an excellent second home investment.

Latke Monticello is a gated community located in Fluvanna County a short drive from Charlottesville, Virginia.  The heart of the development is a 350 acre manmade lake with 22 miles of shoreline.  A wide range of amenities such as boating, swimming, golf, tennis, fishing and basketball make this an excellent weekend getaway.  Yet it is close enough to Charlottesville to take advantage of the excellent restaurants and area activities.

There are currently 8 waterfront homes on the market at Lake Monticello priced from $429,900 to $1,100,000.  6 of the homes are priced under $500,000.

This is the view of the lake from a waterfront home that I sold last winter.
