Put together with care as only a seasoned Veterinarian can on some of Georgia's prime soil, "The Hackberry Ranch" aka Doc Dougan's Farm with its 360 degree vistas of gorgeous unspoiled countryside is one of the finest you will find! With great thought, in all his infamous wisdom, the doctor has laid out this farm in such a manner to optimize operations while enhancing the beauty of the land. From the various pastures which are fenced and cross fenced (8; each with water/automatic), and livestock working lanes to the various grasses planted & fantastic barn facilities this is one farm you will definitely want to check out and buy! Now home to the Doc's Registered Beef Master cattle and Katahdin Sheep, the "Doc" is even willing to part with some of the stock making for a somewhat "turn-key" transaction and willing to stay on to train a new owner if desired to insure a smooth transition in farm operation & ownership. WHAT an OPPORTUNITY! Most of the property is open with approximately 35 acres in woodlands, a portion of the woodlands being in managed planted pines (income) and the balance in hardwoods scattered in patches across the landscape. Doc's wife will not be out done ...evident once you view the spacious custom built HOME Mrs. Dougan has lovingly created, beautiful, tranquil and inviting! Built in 2008, It is situated perfectly on the property to take in the fabulous views as "far as the eye can see" of gentle rolling fields and woodlands... NOT another house in sight nor any unsightly power lines as they are all underground! The home with its open free flowing floor plan offers magnificent views from every room and most especially is the "post card picture" view from the graciously southern front porch... the perfect place to enjoy sunrises and sunsets as your animals graze the hillside. Much attention has been given to detail in the large Great Room with kitchen/Dining combination and a bright windowed breakfast area. There are coffer ceilings, lovely built in book cases, paneled columns, Brazilian granite counter tops, oak floors and much,much more. A large tiled sun room wraps the rear and side of the home. There are two(2) Bedrooms and 2 baths, including the Master with exquisite Master Bath, on the main level and 4 Bedrooms and 2 Baths on the second level... (Total 6 BR/4 Baths! - all spacious) The second level can be totally closed off from the main level should one desire. There is also a walk-out basement and a detached garage with bath and workshop. Large laundry room, built ins, walk-in closets...the BEST of the BEST! Rear entry foyer and lovely staircase...a MUST SEE HOME! No EXPENSE has been spared in the quality construction of this wonderful Country home. Located outside of Washington, Georgia (Tignall area), Doc's Hackberry Ranch is an easy drive to ATHENS, Georgia with access to University of Georgia . It is also near other smaller towns of charm such as Elberton. The farm is nestled amid other beautiful farms & large land tracts in a pristine community located on a county maintained dirt road a very short distance off the main paved Highway. The ambiance is that of the farms of old with tree lined fence rows, (many a Hackberry line the rows), large shady lone oaks stand in the fields, towering Georgia pines are in neat planted rows, patches of mature hardwoods are scattered around the ranch as the creek meanders a long its worn path... The Doc's farm is MORE than just a place.... It is a sanctuary far from the maddening crowds, far from the hustle & bustle... Where the stars shine visibly bright and there is always a gentle breeze... It's A WAY OF LIFE... a lingering very missed LIFESTYLE from the past. COME...
