Cheap Residential Land in Georgia near High Falls Lake
One of the state’s most beautiful and welcoming outdoor family vacation destinations, High Falls State Park, lies just 8 minutes down the road from here. The park features the the tallest cascading waterfall south of Atlanta and its accompanying lake is a popular fishing spot for hybrid and white bass. The graded driveway and cleared pad site on this property give you a great jumpstart in your construction.
- Priced about 20% below market
- Just 8 Minutes from High Falls Lake/State Park
- Power & Water Available
- Paved Road Access
- Graded Driveway & Clearing
PROPERTY: This 3.65 acre lot is lightly wooded with a cleared pad site and graded driveway, and it features about 290 feet of direct frontage on paved Garr Road. There are no structures on site, but power and water does run along the road frontage so the whole package is very ready for your development. The lot is generally flat and very buildable and this rolling countryside neighborhood is lightly populated and very peaceful. When you’re ready for natural adventure, High Falls State Park is only 8 minutes down the road and Atlanta, when you’re in the mood for urban excitement, is just an hour north. You can shop a factory outlet mall in Locust Grove about 20 minutes away, and the nearest Walmart is just a 15 minute drive to the county seat of Forsyth. So this puts you in that “Goldilocks” zone — close enough to the big city when you need it, but far enough away for the peace and serenity you crave.

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.
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.
WHY ARE YOU SELLING IT SO CHEAP? We are often asked why our properties are priced below market value, and the answer is really simple: we choose to sell to you at wholesale prices. We are investors who purchase properties at a large volume and discounted rates, and we strongly believe in passing this discount on to our buyers.
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.
