Units n/a

106 acres. Three sides National Forest. Private waterfall, streams, and pond just steps from your porch - this is the mountain retreat you've dreamed of but never thought you'd find. Discover one of North Georgia's most extraordinary private retreats - a well-built and beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 3-bath home perfectly sited on 106.63 pristine acres in North Habersham County. This rare property is surrounded on three sides by the Chattahoochee National Forest, creating an unmatched sense of peace, seclusion, and protection from future development. The forest's ever-changing beauty will be your backdrop - from lush green summers to brilliant fall color and serene winter vistas. From the moment you pass through the gated entrance and travel the well-maintained gravel drive, you feel the outside world fall away. The property offers an incredible combination of water, forest, and mountain scenery, all within your own private domain. A spectacular waterfall, easily reached from the main drive, is just one of the many natural treasures here. Crystal-clear streams wind through the land, and one flows directly into a spring-fed pond perfect for fishing, swimming, or simply enjoying the peaceful reflection of the surrounding trees. The home is positioned to take advantage of the tranquil setting while providing comfort and practicality. Wrap-around porches invite you to relax and listen to the sounds of nature. Inside, the open layout, abundant windows, and quality finishes create a warm and welcoming atmosphere - equally suited for weekend escapes, full-time living, or hosting family and friends. Outdoor enthusiasts will find endless opportunities for exploration and adventure. Forestry trails and old logging roads provide access across the property's rolling terrain - ideal for hiking, horseback riding, ATV adventures, or simply walking among the wildflowers. With thousands of acres of National Forest right at your doorstep, your recreational options extend beyond your own land to include nearby waterfalls, trout streams, hunting areas, and scenic overlooks. Benefits of National Forest Adjacency are significant: Permanent privacy - no risk of neighboring development. Protected scenic views - the surrounding forest is federally preserved. A natural sound and light buffer - enjoy quiet nights and star-filled skies. A thriving habitat for deer, turkey, songbirds, and other native wildlife. This is more than just a property - it's a lifestyle and a legacy. Whether you envision it as a private residence, a family compound, a recreational retreat, or a long-term land investment, large acreage tracts of this caliber are increasingly rare in Northeast Georgia. Located within a short drive to the 'best biscuits in Batesville at Batesville General, charming Clarkesville, Lake Burton, and the North Georgia mountains' most popular destinations, including the most visited city in Georgia - Helen - you'll enjoy easy access to dining, shopping, and seasonal festivals while returning home to your own secluded sanctuary. Come walk the trails, listen to the waterfall, and feel the peace this property offers - it's a place you'll never want to leave.
