5 Georgia Farm, Mountain, and Golf Community Luxury Retreats

With Lake Hartwell only minutes away, Linden Hill Farm unfolds across 62.48± acres in Hartwell, Georgia—an exceptional former working horse farm offered as a whole, or split per the July 25, 2023 survey into 173 with 19.71 acres or 175 with 42.76 acres. Two homes anchor the property, complemented by serious equestrian infrastructure: stables for 12 horses, a covered riding arena, and an additional arena dedicated to jumping and training. A barn tailored for equipment storage keeps day-to-day operations organized, while fencing and cross-fencing shape the landscape into defined pastures. The setting balances a rural sense of space with everyday access—close to downtown Hartwell, a nearby golf course, and positioned between Athens, Atlanta, and Greenville—supporting a lifestyle that moves easily between open land and town comforts.
