Description
This exceptional 243 ± acre commercial tract in Carnesville, Georgia, offers outstanding visibility and access, featuring more than 2,000 feet of frontage on Interstate 85 and positioned just half a mile from Exit 164. The property also boasts over 1,750 feet of frontage on Highway 59, with multiple access points, including two entrances on Highway 59 and an additional access on Conger Road near the interstate.
Public water is available, and sewer access is provided via an existing sewer easement. Natural gas is available as well. Touching the Carnesville City Limits, the property presents a strong opportunity for annexation and potential connection to city services.
The land features a mix of level and gently sloping topography, providing flexibility for site design. The beauty of this property is unparalleled, with a blend of open pastureland, mature pines, hardwood timber, and over 4,300 feet of frontage on the Middle Fork Broad River. Its strategic location places it approximately 70 miles from Atlanta, 60 miles from Greenville, 30 miles from Athens, and 150 miles from Charlotte.
With excellent highway exposure, utilities in place, and a configuration well-suited for industrial development, but versatile enough to support a variety of commercial uses, this property stands out as a prime opportunity in the growing I-85 corridor.
