Located just one hour north of Atlanta, the mountain community of Big Canoe has long been regarded as one of the most desirable vacation home locations in North Georgia. In recent years, however, the area has seen an increase in the number of residents that make this lovely mountaintop enclave their full time home.
The community of Big Canoe covers nearly 8000 acres in Dawson and Pickens counties and contains lakes Petit, Sconti,and Disharoon. Approximately one third of the total acreage has been designated for wildlife areas and parks. Home to seven mountains, including Sanderlin Mountain where this build site is located, Big Canoe sits literally at the beginning of the Georgia portion of the Appalachian Mountains.
This particular parcel overlooks a scenic valley in the heart of this luxury gated community. Residents enjoy scenic mountain views from the privacy of their homes as well as cultural and outdoor activities in the surrounding areas. The Big Canoe development features a 27 hole championship golf course, hiking and biking trails, lakefront beaches, streams, waterfalls, a 17,000 square foot fitness facility, and an indoor and outdoor swim and tennis complex.
The beginnings of this community harken to the days of the Dahlonega gold rush and the subsequent discovery of rich marble deposits. This one acre site presents an excellent opportunity to have your very own private mountain residence in an area that holds an important place in Georgia history, noted for providing the marble for The Lincoln Monument as well as some of Atlanta’s most striking architecture.
Serene and lovely, this piece of North Georgia heaven needs only your imagination and vision to be transformed into a calm and peaceful sanctuary just a short drive north of the city.
