You have arrived! Welcome to a rare offering in the heart of Oconee County, Georgia: 344 unrestricted acres just minutes from Watkinsville and Athens, Georgia, combining recreational, agricultural, and long-term investment potential in one of Georgia's most sought-after growth corridors. The property boasts an impressive 3,700 feet of frontage along Greenbrier Creek, offering exceptional wildlife habitat, hardwood bottoms, and year-round water access rarely found on a tract of this size. Dual road frontage adds both convenience and flexibility with access from JT Elder Road, a county-maintained gravel road, and Colham Ferry Road, a paved thoroughfare connecting directly to Watkinsville and the greater Athens area. Adding further value, a current professional timber valuation places the standing timber on the property at over $640,000, with a healthy mix of merchantable pine and hardwood, including mature pine sawtimber, chip-n-saw, hardwood/cypress sawtimber and pulpwood. This represents a significant built-in asset for a future owner, whether managed for long-term timber income or held as part of the land's overall value. Whether envisioned as a private family retreat, working farm, hunting property, timber investment, or future development tract, this acreage offers the space, water, timber, and access to make it possible - all within one of Georgia's fastest-growing counties. The schools in Oconee County are ranked among the BEST in the nation. The property is open to subdividing pending acreage, price, location and surveying.
