Description
Welcome to Your Mountain Oasis! Imagine owning a beautiful, private 25-acre piece of history, nestled in the mountains just 2 miles from the end of State Highway 400 in Dahlonega. This unique property, known for being the site of the "First American Gold Rush," features Apple Creek, the source of some of the gold used in the original gilding of the Georgia Capitol dome. The land includes a gold wash plant capable of pumping 72 gallons of water per minute through the sluice. This property is a turnkey small horse farm complete with gardens, fruit trees, and an old family homestead built with timber harvested from the mountain. Live on-site in the charming farmhouse while you construct your dream home, and then transform it into a guest house. The farm boasts two horse pastures, totaling approximately 4 acres of grassland, and 10 acres of woods, surrounded by creeks, branches, and springs. A wildlife haven, this land attracts deer, black bears, great blue herons, peregrine falcons, red-tailed hawks, owls, hummingbirds, and pileated woodpeckers. It's also a breeding ground for Chuck Will’s Widow birds each spring. The property includes a tool shed, 2 pole barns, three chicken coops, apple and peach trees, and two fertile gardens. Unmatched Location and Historical Significance - Less than 2 miles from the new Northeast Georgia Medical Center, Home Depot, Publix, and a variety of restaurants and shops, this property offers convenience without sacrificing tranquility. It's just 10 minutes from Dawsonville and Dahlonega, 20 minutes from Gainesville, and 50 minutes from Buckhead. With breathtaking views of Blood Mountain and a rich Cherokee history, this property is not only a great investment but also a little slice of heaven. Don't miss the chance to own this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat!
