First time ever offered on the market, this remarkable 281.58 acre legacy property on Piedmont Orchard Road is the kind of North Georgia tract that simply doesn't come around twice. Offering breathtaking mountain views, pristine frontage along Long Branch Creek, and a rare combination of usable pasture and untouched forest, this property truly has it all. Piedmont Orchard Road naturally divides the land, with approximately 55 acres on one side and 226+ acres on the other, creating endless possibilities for a private estate, family compound, or future development. The gently rolling bottomland along both sides of the quiet country road opens into beautiful meadow settings, while the hardwood forest beyond is rich with wildlife and unspoiled natural beauty. Adding to its uniqueness, the property is bordered by National Forest on two sides, providing exceptional privacy, protected surroundings, and direct access to thousands of acres of recreational land. Ideally located just north of Clarkesville, this property sits in the heart of Northeast Georgia's outdoor playground, only minutes from Lake Burton, and near the legendary Soque River, widely recognized for trophy trout fishing and pristine waters . With close proximity to the Chattahoochee National Forest, hiking, fishing, and outdoor adventure are quite literally at your doorstep. Whether you're looking to create a generational estate, recreational retreat, or investment opportunity, this is a rare chance to own a large, contiguous tract in one of North Georgia's most sought after and scenic locations.
