Property Description

Tucked inside the Jake's Landing Overlook subdivision in Ellijay, GA, Lot 79 offers a peaceful place to build a simpler kind of getaway - and an ideal setting for a cozy short-term rental cabin. This gated community is thoughtfully designed to encourage smaller-footprint homes, making it perfect for a weekend retreat, vacation rental, or low-maintenance mountain escape. The property begins with a sloped driveway entrance and opens up to rolling land that feels just right for a tucked-away cabin. A small creek near the back of the lot adds to the natural charm. Throughout the neighborhood, you'll find beautiful mountain views and a growing list of amenities that support outdoor living, including swimming, tennis, nearby camping areas, hiking trails, and access to Carters Lake. Amenities are still in progress. Just a short drive from Ellijay's charming downtown - full of locally owned shops, restaurants, and seasonal festivals - this lot is also close to Blue Ridge and Jasper, with easy access to Highway 515 for convenient trips to and from Atlanta. Whether you're building now or planning for the future, Lot 79 offers an opportunity to create a peaceful mountain cabin with strong rental potential in the heart of North Georgia.
