Why build your custom home in Tate?
Tate is one of North Georgia’s most storied communities — birthplace of the Georgia Marble industry, home of the pink-marble Tate House, set in the Appalachian foothills.
Fifty miles of heritage
Along GA-53 about 50 miles north of Atlanta, Tate pairs private mountain homesites with a sense of history you can’t manufacture.
Land worth building on
Foothill acreage and quiet, wooded lots give Pickens County homesites the privacy and character worth building around.
A community with roots
Marble heritage and Appalachian scenery give Tate a legendary backdrop for a custom home.
