SMALL INVESTMENT, HUGE RETURN. Stunning wooded lot in the sought after Walnut Mountain subdivision, located close to downtown and Hwy 515. This .48 acre lot is sloped but very buildable with a great place for an ideal building spot. The views of the breathtaking mountains are nearly panoramic when the leaves are off the trees but could easily be year round with some vista pruning and topping. Here, you feel like you're in the clouds and a world away from society. Located a short distance down a quiet, gravel road but otherwise, paved roads the entire way. Enjoy all the amenities Walnut Mountain has to offer such as lakes, creekside and lakeside parks, tennis, playground, and an outdoor pool with a clubhouse. Enjoy trout fishing beside the famous Turniptown Creek (fun to gold pan too) Close to downtown Ellijay shopping, vineyards, and orchards.

Prepare for breathtaking views from this ridge top as you over look up close and layering mountain views of the Rich Mountain Range. This lot is located in the sought after Walnut Mountain subdivision with nature at top of mind. Here, you'll be surrounded by trees and wildlife at an elevation where you can be one with clouds and eagles. This is a steep lot but there is a neighboring lot with a cabin and similar terrain (our local builders specialize in lots like this). With some tree topping, the views would be about the best you can get in north GA year round, but as of right now they are primarily seasonal. SMALL INVESTMENT, HUGE RETURN! Enjoy the many amenities offered by Walnut Mountain, such as the outdoor pool, creekside and lakeside parks, tennis, fishing lakes, and playgrounds. Very conveniently located close to downtown Ellijay, orchards, vineyards, and Hwy 515.
