Description
The pristine setting of this extraordinary 550+/- acre farm at 175 Thornton Road in Franklin, Georgia blends the comfort of a finely finished home with the rare freedom that only wide-open land can provide. Thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and private retreat, the home features an open floor plan, multi level screened-in back porch & open deck with panoramic waterfront views, second full kitchen in the basement, reinforced safe room, and attached two-car garage - all coming together to create a property that feels as functional as it is peaceful. Inside, the residence offers 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths across approximately 4,166 square feet, providing room to spread out while still maintaining a warm, inviting feel. Hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas, adding continuity and character, while the kitchen showcases quartz countertops, abundant workspace, and a layout built for cooking, gathering, and entertaining. The flexible floor plan easily adapts to hosting guests, working from home, hobbies, or multigenerational living, giving you the freedom to live the way you want today while leaving room for whatever comes next. Step outside and the true scale of the property begins to unfold. The 550 +/- acres, highlighted by a stunning 20-acre private lake, create a setting that supports a rural lifestyle in a way few properties ever can. An extensive, well-maintained internal road system allows you to move throughout the land with ease, whether for recreation, farming, hunting, or simply enjoying the quiet beauty of the surroundings. Improvements across the property make it truly one-of-a-kind, including a large pole barn, scenic waterfall feature, man-made beach, lakeside fire pit, and multiple gathering areas designed to enjoy the outdoors year-round. Every element has been placed with intention, creating a rare sense that the home, the land, and the improvements all belong together. Properties of this size and quality rarely come available. 175 Thornton Road offers the opportunity to own a farm that delivers both unmatched scale and everyday livability - a place where privacy, comfort, and nature exist in perfect balance.
