About This Lot
As of December 2024Conveniently situated near Highway 278 in Covington, Georgia, close to the high school and just minutes from the downtown area, this property holds significant potential for a personal home, “getaway” acreage, or just recreational activities.
Though currently capable of accommodating 50 residential lots with the current zoning, the presence of rock makes it difficult and costly to develop that many lots. Which is why we see this best fit for personal use.
Recognized by Southern Living as one of the most charming small towns in the state, Covington is a picturesque setting filled with life and vibrancy. Conveniently situated just 30 miles east of Atlanta, it offers residents both the tranquility associated with small-town living and the convenience of access to big-city amenities.
Known as “The Hollywood of the South,” Covington has served as the backdrop for over 100 films and television shows, including major productions like The Vampire Diariesand The Dukes of Hazzard
