Jasper, GA Multifamily Homes & Duplexes for Sale

Jasper is nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, offering a blend of outdoor recreation and a laid-back lifestyle. Just over an hour north of Atlanta, Jasper is known for its marble mining quarries and is nicknamed The First Mountain City. The city attracts both retirees and commuting workers due to its proximity to Atlanta and has more affordable living compared to nearby Ellijay and Blue Ridge. Housing options range from rustic cabins and ranch-style homes to luxury estates in gated communities like Bent Tree and Big Canoe. The city center has seen recent construction, including condos and townhomes. Pickens County Schools serve the area, with Pickens High School offering Career, Technical and Agricultural Education programs, and dual-credit opportunities with Chattahoochee Technical College.

Outdoor attractions are a major draw. The surrounding mountains offer hiking, fishing, camping and mountain biking opportunities, with spots like Eagle’s Rest, Amicalola Falls State Park and Carter’s Lake within 20 miles. Downtown Jasper features a mix of boutiques, cocktail bars and cafes, with restaurants like The Old Mulehouse and The Last Catch. The city is expanding its commercial corridor along state Route 5, including a new Publix and the Piedmont Mountainside Hospital. Jasper celebrates its marble industry with the Georgia Marble Festival and hosts monthly summer street fairs and weekly farmers markets. Interstate 575 provides access to Atlanta, about 60 miles south, though traffic can extend the drive to 90 minutes. Jasper occasionally experiences traffic congestion, but it remains less severe than in Atlanta or its suburbs.
