Description
There’s a very real chance you might fall in love with this farm before you ever step inside. Set on 31.5 acres along Sandy Creek Road with approximately 1,093 feet of road frontage, this special property was originally built as a second home and country retreat—and it still feels like one today. The cedar shake siding and metal roof set the tone before you ever walk through the door. Inside, beautiful heart pine floors and walls give the home that warm, collected country cottage feel that just belongs here. Outside is really where this property shines. Rolling acreage, beautiful fenced pastures, and peaceful surroundings create the kind of setting that is getting harder and harder to find in Morgan County. And when everything is in bloom, it’s really something special. Peaches, grapes, apples, pears, pecans, blueberries, blackberries and figs can all be found throughout the property, adding to an already long list of reasons to spend your time outside. And the animals? They’re pretty spoiled here, too. The barn features three primary 12x12 stalls plus two additional 12x16 stalls along the side, all outfitted with padded 1/2-inch rubber mats. The paddock behind the barn has approximately eight inches of river sand, while the paddock/ring is equipped with lights for added functionality. The barn also has both hot and cold water, along with a tack room and feed room, making this a setup that was thoughtfully designed for actually keeping and enjoying horses. There’s plenty of room to ride, roam and enjoy some of the prettiest land Morgan County has to offer. A fully finished apartment adds even more versatility and could be perfect for guests, extended family, a farm manager, home office or additional living space. Whether you’re looking for a horse property, hobby farm, private country retreat, weekend escape or somewhere to put down roots for generations, this is the kind of property that offers so much more than a home. It’s a place to slow down, spread out and stay awhile—and a pretty special opportunity to create a legacy in one of Georgia’s most beautiful small towns.
