About This Home

The property is a clean, rectangular 50-acre tract - deceptively simple on a map, extraordinary in person. Sitting 500 feet above sea level, the farm commands sweeping 360-degree vistas of the Georgia Piedmont, with clear-sky views that extend toward the Atlantic on a clear day. Thunderstorms roll in from the west like theater. Snowfall across the open pastures is something you don't forget. Below the hilltop nursery, the land drops approximately 150 feet down to a year-round hardwood creek bottom - 15 degrees cooler in summer, alive with black walnut, hickory, oak, beech, ash, persimmon, and native pine. The creek holds crawfish and small fish. Turkey roost along its banks. Deer trails thread through the bottom daily. The pastures above have never been treated with herbicides or harsh chemicals. They are clean, natural, and ready - whether for horses, livestock, or continued agricultural use. Wild Oak's biodiversity is remarkable: this is not a monoculture farm but a living landscape of native species woven together into something the next owner will spend years discovering. PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS What Makes Wild Oak Unlike Any Other Hilltop Vistas: Sitting at 500 feet above sea level - 170 feet above nearby Lake Thurmond - the farm commands sunrise views, star-filled nights, the Milky Way, and even the Northern Lights on rare, remarkable evenings. 4,000 Sq Ft Farmhouse: Seven bedrooms - including a full finished basement with living area - wrapped in wrap-around porches and designed to look like a 100-year-old farmhouse. Built by the Dicksons themselves, with custom cabinetry and hardwood floors laid by hand. Commercial Nursery: 13,000+ sq ft of greenhouse space producing 500+ plant varieties annually. Open just 35 hours a year across seven Saturdays - and generating over 20,000 plant sales per season. Fully Wi-Fi controlled and remotely operable from anywhere in the world. Wildlife : Deer and turkey are year-round residents. The hardwood creek bottom provides natural habitat corridors, and deer have been harvested from the porch itself. Dove hunting over the nursery fields is a seasonal bonus. Year-Round Creek: A spring-fed, hardwood-lined creek runs the length of the lower property. Native black walnut lines the banks. The family uses it as their "city park" - Low Country boils, crawfish hunts, and fishing with the kids. Lake Thurmond Access: Just 10 minutes from the boat ramp, with 77,000 acres of striper and bass fishing, beaches, and camping. One of the Southeast's great recreational lakes - practically in the backyard. No Mosquitoes: Due to the constant hilltop breeze and elevation above the Georgia gnat line, Wild Oak Farms is virtually insect-free - even in summer. The porch needs no screen. This is rarer than it sounds in the rural South. Native Biodiversity: Hickory, oak, beech, persimmon, pine, ash, and black walnut grow wild across the property. Chemical-free pastures maintained naturally for over 50 years. This land has been stewarded, not stripped. Turnkey Operations Manual: Corbin has developed a comprehensive 52-week nursery playbook - covering propagation, planting schedules, fertilization, sales events, and customer management - so the next owner can step in with confidence, even with zero nursery experience.
