0 Still Creek Rd Lot 3, Rising Fawn, GA 30738

Located 20 minutes south of downtown Chattanooga, Long Branch Preserve is Lookout Mountain's first FARM+FOREST community. Focused on health, wellness, serenity and conversation, Long Branch provides acreage homesites, 2 lakes, over 8 miles of hiking trails, fenced pastures, riding ring and Equestrian barn. Lot 3 is located near Lake Sarah Zane, a tranquil 4.5 acre lake near the community's gated entrance and wildflower meadow. The developer recently commissioned renowned architectural firm, JCC Design Studio, to create a home plan that optimizes the topography and views from this homesite. Approximately 2.38 acres, Lot 3 provides options for a building site inclusive of a daylight basement or crawlspace home. With no minimum square footage requirements, residents are free to build the home that suits their lifestyle as long as the construction and design fall within the architectural guidelines. Long Branch Preserve, a 400 acre community discovered and designed by an outdoor enthusiast entrepreneur who also happens to be a medical doctor, has a protected viewshed thanks to a conservation easement. The developer's passion for nature, health and outdoor recreation prepared him for being the perfect caretaker of this land. A popular destination for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking, Lookout Mountain boasts an extensive trail system which uniquely winds through Long Branch, the only private community where the trail system does so. Now known as the Cloudland Connector Trail, this 30-mile trail system connects Nick-A-Jack Road and Cloudland Canyon State Park, which boasts 3,500 protected acres including waterfalls and scenic overlooks. Long Branch is limited to only 20 homesites stretching over 80 acres with natural and man-made amenities including the 4 acre lower lake with boathouse; 2 acre upper lake with dock, treehouse and swing; multiple creeks and streams; equestrian barn with guest apartment (for residents' use); riding ring; fenced pastures and village green (for gatherings, parties and weddings). The next phase of Long Branch amenities began in 2020 with a community farm/garden. There are approximately 12 miles of trails that wind through Long Branch and most residents find themselves exploring for exercise or relaxation daily, observing how the seasons change the landscape. Life at Long Branch is focused on thriving and its residents range from retirees to families, artists to physicians. This beautiful forest is now part of a permanent conservation easement providing protection for many species of wild birds and native flora. Long Branch is a gated community and employs architectural guidelines for building. The guidelines, quite simply, are meant to inspire design for the natural surroundings, to take in the beauty and work with the topography that is already here. Long Branch is located only two hours north of Atlanta in the mountains of Northwest Georgia. Call us today for a tour.
