Description
Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the gated Sassafras Mountain at Cartecay community, this 4.3-acre wooded homesite offers exceptional privacy and a true North Georgia mountain setting for your custom build. Mature hardwoods and pines blanket the property, creating a peaceful, secluded canopy that's hard to find so close to town - and the cul-de-sac location means minimal drive-by traffic and added seclusion for whoever builds here. Sassafras Mountain at Cartecay is one of the area's most sought-after gated communities, known for its estate-sized lots (most 3+ acres), paved roads, and stone entrance that sets the tone for the neighborhood. Perched in the Cartecay Valley in Gilmer County, the community offers the quiet of mountain living while staying an easy drive to everything downtown Ellijay has to offer. Buyers will love the location: apple orchards, wineries, and farm stands surround the area, along with hiking and mountain biking trails, and the trout-filled waters of the Cartecay River just minutes away for fishing or tubing. Downtown Ellijay's shops, restaurants, and seasonal events (including the famous Georgia Apple Festival) are a short drive from the neighborhood, and the property falls within the newer Clear Creek school district. Whether you're planning a full-time residence or a getaway property, Lot 9 offers the wooded privacy, acreage, and gated-community setting today's mountain buyers are looking for.
