Description

10.38 Acres with Historic Farmhouse & Majestic Oaks - Sharon, Georgia Step back in time and discover the potential of this beautiful 10.38-acre tract nestled in the quiet crossroads community of Sharon, Georgia. Just 6-7 minutes off I-20 and conveniently located about an hour from both Augusta and Atlanta, this property offers peaceful country living with easy access to the city. The land itself is the true showpiece -- mostly fenced, open, and dotted with breathtaking, massive old oak trees that simply cannot be replicated. These grand oaks create a park-like setting in the center of the property where an antique farmhouse sits waiting for restoration. The home is old and currently not connected to electricity, though it once was and could be again. Inside, you'll find generous room sizes and the kind of character only time can create. With vision and some sweat equity, this historic home could be restored to its original charm and splendor. Whether you're looking for a homestead, weekend retreat, or investment project, the opportunity is here. The property sits adjacent to a railroad line that now runs only once or twice a week -- a subtle reminder of Sharon's past as a small railroad town. A Bit of Local History Sharon has deep roots in Georgia history and is notably associated with Robert Grier (1794 to 1874), founder of Grier's Almanac. Grier was a Presbyterian minister, educator, and astronomer who established what became one of the South's most widely circulated almanacs. First published in the early 1800s, Grier's Almanac provided astronomical calculations, weather forecasts, planting schedules, and practical advice for farmers throughout the region. It remains one of the oldest continuously published almanacs in the United States and is still printed today -- a lasting testament to Sharon's historic significance. If you appreciate land, history, and the opportunity to restore something special, this 10.38-acre tract offers a rare chance to own a piece of Georgia's rural heritage.
