Long Branch Preserve is a 400 acre, almost hidden community designed by an outdoor enthusiast entrepreneur who also happens to be a medical doctor. His passion for nature, health and outdoor recreation prepared him for being the perfect caretaker of this land. From downtown Chattanooga, Long Branch is an easy and scenic commute of 20 minutes making it a popular location for residents who seek both seclusion and convenience. Lot 5 was delineated by the developer to provide a private homesite within a short walking distance of hiking trails and both lakes. All lots are utility-ready including high-speed fiber optic cable (nearby Chattanooga is known as the Gig City). While homes are subject to design guidelines, there is no minimum size of home prescribed allowing residents to enjoy the lifestyle of a getaway cabin, small cottage or year-round living (as most residents have chosen). Residents range from artists to physicians, families to retirees - all share a passion for nature and conservation. Long Branch is Lookout Mountain's only FARM+FOREST community and is, intentionally, a community focused on health, wellness, serenity and conservation. Standing in the middle of Long Branch, one will see protected land in every direction, thanks to the efforts of the developer and nearby conservation groups. A popular destination for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking, Lookout Mountain boasts an extensive trail system which uniquely winds through Long Branch. Now known as the Cloudland Connector Trail, this 30-mile trail system connects Nick-A-Jack Road and Cloudland Canyon State Park, which boasts 3,500 protected acres including waterfalls and scenic overlooks. Long Branch is limited to only 20 homesites stretching over 80 acres with natural and man-made amenities including the lower lake with dock (4.5 acres); upper lake (2 acres) with dock, treehouse and swing; equestrian barn with guest apartment (for residents' use); multiple creeks and streams; riding ring; fenced pastures and village green (for gatherings, parties and weddings). The newest phase of Long Branch community amenities began in 2020 with a new community farm/garden. There are approximately 8 miles of trails that wind through Long Branch and most residents find themselves exploring for exercise or relaxation daily. This beautiful forest is now part of a permanent conservation easement providing protection for many species of wild birds and native flora. We welcome you to come for a visit and take a tour. Long Branch is located only two hours north of Atlanta.
