Property description
EQUESTRIAN MINI FARM - HOMESTEAD - BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY - 5 BEDROOM HOME - ALL JUST MINUTES FROM DOWNTOWN WATKINSVILLE, ATHENS, AND WIRE PARK This is the kind of small equestrian property so many are searching for, but that can be so hard to find – a private, usable, horse or hobby farm with excellent proximity to town, shopping, dining, and every day conveniences. Ideally located to 3 miles from downtown Watkinsville and Wire Park, and only minutes from downtown Athens, this versatile property offers the perfect blend of country living and accessibility. Formerly a charming lavender farm, the property is beautifully suited for hobby farming, homesteading, a live/work lifestyle, or just a great family property where you can have your horses at home. The land is fenced and ready for horses, goats, or other livestock, with multiple sheds, run-ins, and outbuildings with electricity in place to support stalls, tack rooms, feed rooms, workshops, equipment storage, or creative spaces. The 5 bedroom, 4 bath home offers generous and flexible living space with multiple gathering areas, an enclosed sun porch, and a partially finished basement for additional expansion potential. A separate 1 car garage/studio creates the perfect space for tack storage, a workshop, art studio, or small business use. A standout feature for those seeking an income producing or multi-use property is the permitted retail shop/farm stand and greenhouse with their own separate driveway. Ideal for a flower or herb farm, equestrian-related business, boutique farm stand, gift shop, creative studio, or an office, the possibilities are nearly endless. An additional home site already equipped with power, septic, and well, offers exceptional flexibility for a guest house, apartment, rental, trainer or caretaker accommodations, multigenerational living, or future expansion. Whether you’re searching for a manageable horse property, a hobby farm, a homestead, or a peaceful retreat with room for both animals and entrepreneurial pursuits, this unique property delivers an increasingly rare combination of usable, versatile land and location in the heart of Watkinsville and Oconee County.
