3.89 ACRES IN AN UPSCALE MOUNTAIN COMMUNITY — PAVED ACCESS & PUBLIC WATER

Here is a rare opportunity to own nearly 4 acres inside The Preserve at Sharp Mountain — one of Pickens County's most architecturally distinctive residential communities — at an entry-level price point. At just $13,000 for 3.89 acres (169,448 sq ft) with paved road access and public water serving the area, this is a legitimate foothold in a covenant-protected neighborhood where quality construction standards are enforced by design.

Jasper, Georgia sits in the heart of the Blue Ridge foothills, a region celebrated for its scenic mountain character, crisp seasonal climate, and a growing reputation as a destination for weekend retreats and full-time mountain living. Pickens County draws buyers who want the feel of the North Georgia mountains without sacrificing proximity to the amenities of greater Atlanta — Jasper is roughly an hour north of the metro.
