4.6ac Heritage Dr Dahlonega, GA 30533

ON THE RIVER! The Chestatee River – a wide, scenic swath of it - in Lumpkin County, just south of town (Dahlonega). The River meanders along the southern border of this 4.6 acres which includes a broad stretch of open grassland extending across to a woody hilltop with overlooking views.

Here the River runs deep and strong, upstream you can see and hear the murmur of shoals. Across the River - then downstream – is Corps of Engineers property. And it's an easy walk right up to the river's edge where you can sit alongside and watch the world flow by. Or maybe instead channel your inner Huck Finn and go explore.

The grasslands cover about an acre-and-a half of essentially flat terrain and cozy up with the River, talk about a fantastic area for projects and play and - oh so pretty! Given this grassy area could be temporarily inundated with waters from the River during a one-hundred-year flood event you’ll want to put your residence up on the hill overlooking.

And a great homesite it is up on the hill! A beautiful overview of the property extends all the way to the River along with privacy and mature timber. The terrain is gently rolling once on top and would allow for a ground-level home. Or you could perch further out towards the edge of the hill and include a daylight terrace level beneath with a deck above.

Heritage Drive, the access for this property, is a private gravel roadway in excellent condition. It goes through this property and dead ends just beyond, the grassy area is on one side of the Drive and the hilltop with the views expanding across the property is on the other side. Freedom from restrictive covenants allows more flexibility in utilization of the property. The location is choice - a couple of minutes away from the new Publix and The Home Depot and five minutes to Downtown Dahlonega.

How many modest-sized tracts with such appealing attributes can you find at any given time? I know of one!
