815 Island Shoals Road Jackson, GA 30233

Nestled amongst the pines and hardwoods of eastern Henry County between the South River and Jackson Lake Road, lies this sprawling homestead featuring a charming ranch home, a massive 20x60 detached garage workshop, a serviceable gardening shed, and tremendous potential. County records indicate the property is zoned RA with minimum 175 ft lot width and - for lots on private well and septic like this one - minimum 1.25 acres, meaning this property may be subdividable into at least 2 separate lots, as a 1996 survey reveals its 4.36 acres has over 500 feet of road frontage and lot depth ranging from more than 300 to over 450 feet. | The 3-bed, 2-bath, single-level home on the leftmost-third of the property was originally built off-site in 1957 and moved to Island Shoals in 1996 by the current owners, a retired professional residential contractor and his family. They expanded the generous living room area, adding a wheelchair ramp to access the front door and a screened-in-porch to enjoy wildlife and fresh air on amazing spring mornings and cozy fall afternoons. A further addition expanded the master suite, kitchen and dining nook, a second full bath, laundry room, and back deck. The home is served by its own well and septic system. A just-filled, above-ground propane tank fuels the kitchen's 4-burner range/oven and the home's ~8-year-old water heater. Owners recently had the original HVAC unit upgraded to an efficient electric heat pump system in December 2021, replaced the roof approximately 5 years ago, and installed a new dishwasher in 2023. | Whether you're a hobbyist, car enthusiast, or in need of a workshop for your trade, the 20x60 detached garage workshop is a versatile space providing ample room for projects and storage. Features include 3-phase 440V power (as well as standard single-phase 220V and 110V) for all your electrical needs, all wiring in metal conduit, plenty of lighting, a ventilation system, copious shelves and cabinets, concrete slab and more. An approximately 20x20 back room joins the 20x40 front room, from which a 10x6 office is cut. A 20x6 loft accommodates extra storage above. An accomplished woodworker, the current owner hand-built the home's kitchen cabinets here when they renovated. A lean-to carport off the building's right side provides additional covered outdoor storage and parking. | While the home's next owners will undoubtedly want to add their own touches, the house is move-in ready as it stands, though the exterior exhibits some deferred maintenance. For the buyer who plans to build a custom home elsewhere on the property, the current house would certainly make an excellent extended stay during construction. For those building and/or renovating, there's plenty of room for household goods storage, boat and RV parking. Multiple boat ramps nearby allow access to beautiful Lake Jackson. Within a reasonable distance of shopping, dining, entertainment, and outdoor opportunities galore, escape the hustle and bustle of the city and find solace in this peaceful countryside retreat!
