RARE DOWNTOWN ELLIJAY COMMERCIAL OPPORTUNITY | LAST BUILDING PERMITTED TO SELL ALCOHOL | RESTAURANT READY | OPPORTUNITY ZONE – Exceptional opportunity to own one of the most desirable commercial properties in Historic Downtown Ellijay! Located at 28 N Main Street, this fully renovated approximately 2,000 sq ft commercial building sits in the heart of downtown surrounded by restaurants, boutiques, wineries, breweries, shops, & North Georgia's top tourist attractions, while being less than 10 minutes to Walmart. Believed to be the last remaining building in Downtown Ellijay permitted to sell alcohol, this property offers an incredibly rare opportunity for a restaurant, winery, brewery, tasting room, cocktail bar, café, soda bar, retail shop, boutique, or mixed-use concept. The building can accommodate approximately 75 guests inside, with an outdoor deck that can seat approximately 25 additional guests, & there may be potential to enclose the outdoor seating area for even more usable square footage (buyer to verify). Located within an Opportunity Zone, this property offers exceptional long-term investment potential & possible tax advantages for qualified buyers. Building & land only are being sold, giving you the flexibility to bring your own business vision to life. The layout also allows for 2 separate businesses under one roof, making it ideal for a boutique or retail store in the front with a restaurant, wine bar, brewery, café, or tasting room in the back. The rear portion already includes kitchen infrastructure from a previous restaurant, making it even easier to open your business. Major renovations include 12-foot ceilings, commercial triple-layer rolled roofing, a brand-new 50-year roof, all-new storefront glass, updated electrical, new HVAC ductwork, new flooring over concrete, fresh interior paint, & custom wood wall finishes throughout, creating one of the newest-feeling & most extensively updated commercial buildings in Downtown Ellijay. Additional features include public water & sewer, high-speed internet, garbage pickup, a 1,500-gallon grease trap, gas hookup for a commercial stove, water access ideal for a soda or coffee bar, sink area, 2 half bathrooms, all-paved access, outstanding visibility, & heavy foot traffic. Conveniently located near Ellijay's famous apple orchards, wineries, hiking trails, Springer Mountain (the beginning of the Appalachian Trail), Amicalola Falls, Fort Mountain State Park, Brasstown Bald, tubing, kayaking, trout fishing, sunflower fields, pumpkin patches, & more. Preferred lender offering a 1-Year Temporary Rate Buydown, lowering the buyer's interest rate by 1% during the first year for reduced monthly payments.

Presentation first.

Editorial photography, the property's point of view, and the facts that make its value legible in the first thirty seconds.

The Numbers

The full picture.

Price history, taxes, schools, and area context in one place, so you evaluate the deal, not just the photos.

The Move

One tap to act.

Book the showing or text the question directly from the page. Speed matters when the right house surfaces.

Ready When You Are

Never house-hunt
alone again.

The search is the easy part. The read, the offer, and the win are where representation earns its keep.
