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 Georgias 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, as well as 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, and 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 lands 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 Georgias 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. The property is going to have a boundary line survey completed by Late October 2026. The property is currently in CUVA which provides the land owner with property tax benefits until 12/31/2032. According to Oconee County planning and zoning department if you bring JT Elder Road up to County standards the minimum lot size can be 5 acres. All information contained here in has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, including Oconee County, Georgia planning and zoning department. Please contact the listing agent for showing due to hunters on the property. Documents on timber, topography and surveying available upon request. There is a 15 day ROFR on the property.
