Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity to Own a Historic Gem in the Dial Valley of Fannin County! Step back in time with this extraordinary 15.8-acre property featuring 900 feet of serene Toccoa River frontage. The Cochran Davenport Farmstead, built in 1885, is one of the last remaining intact farmsteads in Georgia. This historic estate boasts a beautifully rebuilt Victorian home with 5 bedrooms, 8 fireplaces, and a two-story dogtrot design.

A Rich Legacy: The story of this farmstead begins in 1834 when Lewis Vanzant, the original settler of Fannin County, moved to the area. By 1880, his family owned nearly 2,000 acres in the Dial Valley, including this parcel. In 1885, George Cochran, Vanzant’s son-in-law, built the stunning Victorian home.

Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort: Faithfully reconstructed after a tragic fire in 1987, the home blends historical authenticity with modern living standards. It features a gourmet kitchen, dining room, parlor, and multiple bedrooms, all steeped in historic charm. The property also includes original 1880s-era outbuildings like a root cellar, apple house, smokehouse, large corn crib, and a working barn.

A Living Piece of History: Explore two pastures, a wildflower garden, and remnants of a water wheel that once powered the home. The road literally bends around this iconic farmstead, a true testament to the history that lives within its boundaries.

Don’t miss the chance to own this jewel of the Dial Valley, a phoenix that has risen from the ashes to stand as a rare gem in the North Georgia Mountains.
