A new active senior community for 55 and up is underway in Blue Ridge, Georgia.  "The Oaks" - finally, quality homes that are not log!!!  http://www.theoaksblueridge.com/  Other features such as stone and the actual design of the homes will provide that mountain feel that most people want plus low maintenance! 

A model home is now under construction.  Pick your lot and your plan while prices last or bring your own plan.  This community is under one mile to Lake Blue Ridge, and within walking distance to Tammen Park located on the Toccoa River.  Us a golf cart to motor to the spa.  Also a new, state of the art medical complex, Riverstone Medical Center, is within a mile of The Oaks. http://mainstreet-blueridge.com/Information/

Lake Blue Ridge is a pristine lake, over 3200 acres and much of the land around the lake is United States Forestry Service land which means there will be no over building on this lake.  www.lakeblueridge.us/ One of the main reasons more people are considering Blue Ridge as the place to retire is the county itself. 

More than 42% of Fannin county is protected forestry land with 19% of the land in the Chattahoochee National Forest.  From the essence of a small town to the beautiful Toccoa River for fishing, canoeing, rafting (gentle enough for kids and grandkids) to the lake for boating, skiing and swimming, Fannin has it all!   I moved here many years ago, leaving a big city behind and I've never looked back.  Contact me donna@ellijay.com for more information about "The Oaks" or the Blue Ridge area http://www.blueridgemountains.com/ and www.blueridgegeorgia.us .  I will be very happy to assist. 

Lot prices range from $105,000 to $135,000 and located just off of Hwy. 515 in Blue Ridge.  This development is exclusively being offered by Mountain Investments of North Georgia, Blue Ridge.  Please see the website mentioned in the first paragraph for more information and pictures.
