142r Autumn Fern Lane, Ellijay

LAKEFRONT, CREEK & NEARLY 5 WALKABLE ACRES! This stunning 4.99-acre double lot in Falling Waters is a rare find in the North Georgia mountains, with remarkably gentle terrain, multiple building sites, a creek running along much of the property, and your own frontage on the community lake. The property spans from the corner of Trailwood Drive, occupies nearly half of Autumn Fern Lane and a substantial portion of the cul-de-sac, and continues all the way to the lake. Starting at the cul-de-sac, you'll immediately see why this property is different. Several excellent building locations are available close to the road, or continue farther into the property where the gentle terrain gives you even more possibilities. With nearly five acres to work with, you have the flexibility to choose a homesite that fits your home rather than trying to make your home fit one difficult building spot. Near the middle of the property is a natural area particularly well suited for a walkout-basement home. With selective clearing of underbrush and smaller trees along with thoughtful branch pruning, this location may also offer seasonal lake views while maintaining wooded privacy. Continue through the property toward the lake and you'll find an old walking path through an especially beautiful part of the property. The creek runs along much of the side of the lot, and you'll even find a small footbridge along the way. The woods, creek and lake create a setting that is particularly beautiful in the fall and winter. The gentle terrain makes for an easy walk through your own property all the way to your lake frontage. The former trail once continued beyond the property and offers a quick route to the lake's walking bridge; access beyond your property requires permission from the adjacent property owner. You're approximately 15 minutes from downtown Ellijay and just a few miles from North Georgia apple orchards, wineries and cider tasting. Underground electric, cable, internet and phone are available at the road. Falling Waters is a gated community. Agent must accompany all buyers.
