PROPERTY: This 0.5 acre lot is protected by mature trees and features about 106 feet of direct frontage along Bethlehem Rd, a paved public road. There are no structures on site, but power does run along the road frontage so the whole package is ready for your development. It’s ready for just about anything, in fact, because the Agricultural zoning here allows for wide spectrum of uses, including mobile homes. Any development you decide to pursue here should roll out smoothly too, given the flat topography and lack of floodplain or wetlands encroachments. The immediate neighborhood is moderately populated with well-manicured, ranch style homes, served by good school districts. Your nearest grocery store is the Dollar General in Mt. Zion about 5 minutes west, but you also have Walmarts in Bremen to the north and Carrollton to the south, and both cities are only 10 minutes away. Of those two cities, Carrollton offers the broadest selection of shopping outlets, including big box stores like Target, Hobby Lobby, Ross, TJ Maxx, Tractor Supply Co, Home Depot, and Lowe’s too. When the tummy starts a-rumblin’ though, Cracker Barrel and Chick-fil-A are just 5 minutes up the road in Bremen. If it’s big city action that you crave though, never fear. Atlanta’s a quick, 45-minute jaunt down I-20. Indeed, you can enjoy the fresh air, peace, and privacy of the country here, while keeping the luxuries and excitement of the city at your fingertips.

OWNER FINANCING: We do not offer owner-financing but you could get a loan through a bank or another lender and we’d be happy to coordinate with them.
OUTSIDE FINANCING: Your best deal for financing will come from a local bank or credit union and we can help you find a great deal. Land loans typically require about 15-25% down.
Rural 1st is America’s leading land lender for rural properties and they require as little as 15% down on a 10 or 15-year fixed land loan, with no PMI, and they prefer a credit score of 720 or better. Please contact Michael Wirth by phone or email at (502) 553-8152 or michael.wirth@rural1st.com. They do cover Georgia.
Call or text Scott directly at 314.639.9777 or email at info@acretown.com if you’d like to discuss an offer.
FOR SALE BY OWNER: We are investors, and are selling this lot For-Sale-By-Owner. You do not need to submit your offer through a real estate agent, and in our experience we close transactions more quickly and easily by having our dedicated transaction coordinator work directly with the Title Company and Buyers. We will also both save money on commission/fees by cutting out agents as the middle men. However, if you feel strongly about working with a Realtor, then you’re welcome to have them contact us on your behalf.
WHY ARE YOU SELLING IT SO CHEAP? We are often asked why we price our properties at below market value, and the answer is really simple: because we can, and that’s our core business model. We are investors who purchase properties at a large volume and deeply liquidated rates, and by passing this discount on to our buyers, we can sell land quickly . . . and more of it! In fact, our average property only lasts 2-3 weeks on the market (vs. industry average of about 6 months).
DISCLAIMER: We attempt to provide detailed, accurate and up-to-date information in our listings, in order to help our buyers to the best of our ability. However, it ultimately remains the buyer’s responsibility to perform their own due diligence and double check any details that are of significant importance to you including acreage, utilities, build-ability, and approved/allowable use-age for the property. We are happy to help however we can.
