Originally built in 1895, this massive 6,100 sq ft former lumber mill still showcases its original timber beams and trusses, echoing the craftsmanship and industry of a bygone era. Situated on 14.09 acres within the city limits, this unique property boasts 1445+ Feet of frontage on the Cartecay River, bordering the CSX railroad, and offers some of the best and most visible road frontage at over 1665 feet in downtown Ellijay. The land includes flat open areas ideal for expansion or development, and an additional 3.46-acre terraced parcel on the opposite side of River Street.

Both businesses add immediate value and activity to the site, with flexibility for future uses. Whether you're envisioning a mixed-use development, boutique hotel, restaurant and event venue, retail center, or preserving and restoring the mill as a historic destination, this property offers incredible flexibility, location, and potential.
