About this House

This 53.75-acre Ocoee River estate is more than a residence—it's a platform for creating lifestyle and income in one remarkable setting. With nearly 2,000 feet of private river frontage, your own boat launch, and zoning that includes both commercial and agricultural (greenbelt), the possibilities stretch far beyond traditional living.

At the center is a 6,750 sq. ft. ranch-style luxury home with a pool, designed for comfort, elegance, and multi-generational living. But the true distinction of this property is its ability to generate income, host events, or build businesses directly on-site:

Event & Venue Ready: A 9,000 sq ft multi-use venue building with amphitheater, backup generator, six bathrooms, and sweeping glass bay doors—ideal for weddings, retreats, conferences, or entertainment.

Business Infrastructure: Four-bay shop with bunk room, laundry, and full bath; equipment barn; pole barn; and multiple flex-use structures to support commercial ventures or outdoor recreation enterprises.

Multi-Generational Living: With expansive square footage and diverse buildings, the estate adapts perfectly for extended family living, guest accommodations, or rental income.

Adventure & Recreation: From direct river access to nearby lakes, whitewater rafting, and the vast Cherokee National Forest, this property sits at the heart of the Southeast's outdoor lifestyle economy.

The gated entrance ensures privacy, while the zoning, layout, and acreage offer an almost limitless set of opportunities. Whether your vision is luxury family compound, thriving event venue, agricultural business, or outdoor adventure hub, this estate is a canvas waiting to be shaped.
