Years ago, two cabins and a large barn occupied this special setting, and traces of the old homestead still remain, including a few outbuildings of no value that add character and history to the land. A former owner confirms there is a deep drilled well producing exceptional water and flow. A cell tower lease is located on a portion of the acreage, though the lease does not convey with the sale, while providing the benefit of outstanding cell service in this mountain setting. Enjoy cool mountain breezes, peaceful surroundings, and the freedom of no restrictions and no HOA. Whether you envision a mountain getaway, family compound, RV retreat, mini farm, or future secluded homesite, the possibilities are endless. Conveniently located near the wineries of Dahlonega, as well as Blairsville and Blue Ridge, with easy access to hiking trails, mountain biking, trout fishing, and endless outdoor adventure. Truly a one of a kind mountain property in the high country of North Georgia.
