Georgia. It used to be a ski resort, and
now it's a golf-tennis community. "
Rural getaway: Mountain land starts
at about $7,000 an acre and up, Croom
says.
" People who want to come up and
have three to five acres and raise a few
chickens, " Croom says. " And there's that
group of people who want no restrictions.
And it makes it tough, because the
bulk of Rabun County is forest service.
KENTUCKY
PIKEVILLE-PIKE COUNTY
You don't need a lot of cash-maybe just
$300 an acre-to grab some mountain
land in Pike County, Kentucky.
Want privacy? Well, you'll have that
- being about two hours outside of Pikeville,
a university town and medical center
in East Kentucky.
" It's so rural that it's kind of mindblowing, "
says Jennifer Brown Day, who
sells real estate for Red, Brown and Williams
at Pikeville.
" People are calling from cities, " Day
This 4-bedroom, 2
1/2-bath home in Pike
County, Kentucky,
has 2,626 square feet

says. " They want to live off their land. "
Typical request: 50 acres.
" A lot of them throw out 50 acres.
If you get 50 acres here, you're going to
be lucky to have an acre to do anything
with. There's a lot of rock. It's not the
most usable land. "
Perhaps conversely, in-town property
in Pikeville is most popular-if it's
within walking distance of medical and
educational institutions, Day says.
Downtown dwellings range from
$150,000 to $350,000, Day says. " And
we do have some historical areas. But
those rarely come up on the market. "
Most of the area's gated communities
are located on top of mountains and offer
privacy plus long-range views with home
prices that start at $350,000, Day says.
Cabins and timber frame homes are
hard to find but desirable, Day says.
And what about properties with water?
Well, that may not actually be as desirable
in this part of the Bluegrass State.
" It's not necessarily a bonus because that
means you're into a flood zone. "
