Description

Imagine owning 26.5 private acres with over 2,300 feet of Ellijay River frontage-all within walking distance of vibrant Downtown Ellijay! This once-in-a-generation offering delivers a combination almost unheard of within the city limits: extraordinary river frontage, gently rolling acreage, mature hardwoods, open meadows, remarkable privacy, and effortless access to restaurants, boutiques, shopping, and entertainment. At the heart of the property is a stately brick residence offering approximately 3,936 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. Spacious living areas, warm wood accents, abundant natural light, and a flowing floor plan create an inviting setting for everyday living and entertaining, while the home's solid construction and generous proportions provide an exceptional canvas for a stunning renovation or modernization. Step outside and discover your own riverfront sanctuary, where you can fish, kayak, gather by the water, or simply enjoy the peaceful sights and sounds of the river. A second homesite with power and water already in place adds tremendous flexibility, while multiple potential building sites throughout the property offer privacy and distinctive natural settings. Whether envisioned as a magnificent private estate, multigenerational family compound, exclusive riverfront retreat, or thoughtfully planned boutique development, the possibilities are truly extraordinary. Acreage of this scale, paired with extensive river frontage and downtown walkability, is virtually impossible to recreate-making 195 River Street one of the most distinctive and irreplaceable properties ever offered in Ellijay.
