Tallulahound, I can definitely see where you think it might be a scrape and build.  But I can tell you, on the inside of that island portion, there were not many trees at all.  It was sort of an overgrown, weed filled, brushy situtation with a leveled off place on the top.  The trees mostly were 2 or 3 deep around the edge of where the water had eroded to.

Yes, the 2 homes are still for sale and we have a ton of interest in them now that they are done and we are pointing towards spring.  I think those 2 homes are a testament to the intentions of the current owner.  They chose not to comple the slabs by slapping up some ugly, out of place McSpec house, nor did they go with the original developers' intentions (huge homes priced at $1 mill).

Instead they brought in architect that has earned a great reputation around Lake Martin and the southeast for designing tasteful, sustainable, land friendly homes.  He literally redesigned those homes from the ground up to make them lower impact, more lake friendly, and certainly more affordable ($529k). If you look at the homes (which I would be proud to show you or anyone) it is obvious that the architect poured tons of time and the builder tons of effort to make them nice, something that the neighbors would welcome to their side of the lake.
