"Ye Ole Homeplace" on 2.13 acres - Prime Location with endless potential in the high demand Ball Ground area. ZONED LIGHT INDUSTRIAL - yet lovingly owner-occupied for many years. This is A "One-of-a-kind" property. Great location next door to the South Cherokee Industrial Park, & just off Hwy 5 with convenient Hwy access & visibility. The hidden true value lies in the land. This unique property has a HUGE NATURAL SPRING WELL --tapping into a seemingly endless water aquifer, delivering abundant SPRING WATER - perfect for a future small farm, nursery, or any business requiring a substantial water supply. Notably, this aquifer does not appear in the available historic records (that we have found). In the early 1990's the owner successfully operated a SPRING WATER BOTTLING BUSINESS for many years! There are several possible building sites for future development. The existing home, a charming CAPE COD COTTAGE, is filled with character & nostalgia - featuring hand-hewn boards, vintage glass doorknobs, country niches, stone accents, & surrounded by 100+yr old trees that complete the picturesque setting. The home offers 3 bedrooms/3 baths, pretty sunroom, Separate Family room, formal dining, formal living, & a detached garage building with a loft. While the home will require significant renovation to restore its former glory, the location & the abundant SPRING WATER WELL, presents a compelling opportunity for a new vision or business venture. Endless possibilities await in this exceptional property located directly in the path of growth.
