5 Georgia Estates from Off-Grid Acres to Lakefront Living

By Awais Manzoor

1 min read

Across Georgia, a quintet of homes makes a case for space, seclusion, and the restorative pull of water. From AG-1 farmland in Fairburn to two distinct Ellijay addresses—one a city-limits, off-grid log-home retreat and the other an 8,000-plus-square-foot estate in a gated enclave near Turniptown Creek—these properties treat acreage as a legacy asset. Lake Oconee delivers quiet-cove waterfront in Greensboro, while Carrollton offers an all-brick compound on nearly 17 acres, minutes from I-20 yet wrapped in privacy.

Set on 25+ acres of AG-1 developed farmland in Fairburn/City of South Fulton, this all-electric estate pairs working-land potential with a rare equestrian backbone—within reach of Atlanta, Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, and downtown. At its center is a 2-story, 21-stall professional facility, complete with a horse shower, plus an unfinished 4/1 carriage house overlooking the stables. Two additional outbuildings add flexibility, including one with an unfinished carriage suite above and a garage door. Outdoors, two cabanas create space for relaxed entertaining, while a small lake with fish supports grazing and irrigation. A 9+ acre timber stand of oak and pine adds another layer of value, rounding out a setting designed for farming, leasing, or equestrian-focused income streams.

Along the water’s edge, this Satterwhite Log Home spans three levels on 76.68 acres within Ellijay’s city limits—remarkably private and off-grid, yet a short walk to Downtown.

Inside, an all-wood interior sets a warm tone from the welcoming foyer to cathedral ceilings with exposed beams and a wood-burning fireplace in the great room. The kitchen is finished with granite countertops, stainless appliances, a gas range, tumbled marble backsplash, pantry, and a mudroom/laundry combo, accented by Blue Buggy wood details. A main-level primary suite, upper-level ensuites and loft, and a finished terrace level with wet bar invite guests to linger by the porch and covered deck.
