Step into the legacy of Southern charm and hospitality with the Blue Ridge Inn, one of the original homes of Blue Ridge, Georgia. Built in 1890 and meticulously preserved and renovated over the last 135 years, this stately three-story Victorian residence is now a flourishing 6,000-square-foot boutique inn — and a cornerstone of the downtown community.

Ideal as a luxury suite, or easily converted into owner's quarters, the Lodge offers versatility to match your vision. Inside, guests are welcomed by sun-drenched parlors, an upstairs library, original hand-hewn railings, and true to age old-growth Georgia hardwood floors — each detail a nod to the home's rich past. Every morning, guests enjoy a delicious Southern breakfast in the dining room, a highlight that keeps them coming back year after year. As a business, the Blue Ridge Inn is thriving. With a steadily growing revenue stream, a stellar reputation, and a robust online presence that draws guests from across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, this is more than a property — it's a destination. Guests repeatedly praise its walkable location, cozy atmosphere, charming staff, and that unforgettable breakfast. For the discerning buyer, this is a rare opportunity to own not just an architectural treasure, but a beloved and profitable turnkey business in a booming mountain town just 90 minutes north of Atlanta.
