This exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own a secluded mountain escape that checks every box, whether you're dreaming of a peaceful getaway, a working farm, or the ideal site to build your forever home. Tucked behind a gated entrance, this remarkable tract provides both privacy and security from the moment you arrive. As you enter the property, you'll immediately notice the sense of tranquility that comes from being surrounded by the natural beauty of North Georgia. The land features a desirable mix of flat to gently rolling topography, making it not only scenic but also highly usable for a variety of purposes. Multiple potential homesites are scattered throughout the property, each offering its own unique vantage point with views of the surrounding landscape, perfect for building additional homes for family, guests, or future investment. Nestled quietly among the trees sits a charming private cabin, offering a comfortable basecamp while you plan and develop your vision. The cabin includes two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a living room, making it ideal for weekend stays or extended visits. It is equipped with an electric meter, a Generac backup generator for peace of mind, and propane heaters to keep things cozy during cooler months. A private water well is already in place, adding to the property's self-sufficiency and readiness for use. This land is perfectly suited for establishing a family farm or homestead. Imagine cultivating your own garden, growing fresh vegetables, and embracing a more sustainable lifestyle surrounded by nature. The fertile ground and diverse terrain provide ample opportunity for agricultural pursuits, hobby farming, or simply enjoying wide-open space. For outdoor enthusiasts, this property is nothing short of a dream. With an established network of roads and trails, you'll have easy access to every corner of the land; ideal for ATV riding, hiking, or exploring. Hunters will especially appreciate the abundant wildlife that calls this property home. The land supports a thriving population of whitetail deer, eastern wild turkeys, and other small game. The current owner has successfully harvested multiple deer and turkeys over the years, a testament to the quality of the habitat. Established hunting stands and food plots are already in place, making this a turnkey sportsman's retreat. The timber investment potential adds yet another layer of value. A rich blend of natural hardwoods, including White Oak, Red Oak, Hickory, Poplar, and pine trees covers much of the property. Not only does this create breathtaking seasonal color, particularly in the fall, but it also offers future income opportunities through timber harvest. Despite its private and secluded feel, the property is conveniently located near the towns of Lyerly and Summerville, where you'll find grocery stores, restaurants, and other essential amenities just a short drive away. This balance of seclusion and accessibility makes the property even more appealing. Recorded in survey plat book 14, page 47 of the Chattooga County records, this land is ready for its next chapter. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a recreational haven, or a place to build lasting memories with family, this property delivers. Opportunities like this don't come around often.
