This incredible 5-acre property in Watkinsville presents a rare opportunity to transform a piece of Oconee County history into something truly extraordinary. Once home to the iconic Happy Valley Pottery, the land offers a peaceful and quiet setting surrounded by hundreds of acres of forest, making it an ideal place for a family compound, creative retreat, or multi-generational estate. The property includes two homes, both of which need some TLC and would make for the perfect fixer-uppers. The main residence is a 1920s farmhouse with multiple additions over the years, offering approximately 2,128 square feet of living space. It features three to four bedrooms (depending on how you use the layout), two bathrooms, original pine floors and cabinets in portions of the home, and other areas finished with carpet or vinyl. The farmhouse also includes a cozy fireplace, screened front and back porches, and an updated metal roof, blending vintage charm with functional comfort.
