About This Home
Red Fox Farm is a self-sustaining, 50.5-acre riverfront cattle and equestrian estate located in Oglethorpe County, just 23 miles from Athens and the University of Georgia. This unique property combines the charm of rural living with the convenience of Athens’ amenities. Red Fox Farm is ideal for families seeking a slower, more intentional lifestyle without sacrificing access to modern comforts, Red Fox Farm offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds.
This property features a thoughtfully designed, custom-built 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home completed in 2022 with a focus on energy efficiency and modern comfort. The open-concept floor plan offers a seamless flow, with the primary suite conveniently located on the main level, while two additional large bedrooms upstairs provide space and privacy for family or guests. Highlights include a built-in pantry, a dedicated laundry room, and a charming wrap-around porch—perfect for enjoying peaceful views of the surrounding farm. Energy-saving features include a high-quality solar power system, total foam insulation, a wood-burning stove for heat and high efficiency split HVAC units all designed to keep utility costs low throughout the year.
Beyond the 13 acres of fenced and cross-fenced pasture, the land offers abundant recreational opportunities for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Well-maintained walking trails wind through the mature hardwood forest, providing access to both the South Fork of the Broad River and Big Clouds Creek. With approximately 1,992 feet of frontage on the South Fork and an additional 1,630 feet along Big Clouds Creek, the property provides year-round access for kayaking, fishing, and enjoying the natural beauty of the area.
In addition, Red Fox Farm borders Watson Mill Bridge State Park on two sides, which consists of over 1,100 acres of protected natural land. Renowned for its historic covered bridge spanning the shoals, the park provides additional opportunities for hiking, horseback riding, and fishing.
Whether you're dreaming of starting a sustainable homestead, raising livestock, or simply embracing the peace and freedom of wide-open spaces, Red Fox Farm is a truly rare offering in the greater Athens area.
