Discover 44.31 surveyed acres near Norris Lake with East Tennessee mountain views, abundant wildlife, & no restrictions. This mostly wooded tract offers the privacy & flexibility that’s getting harder to find. There's an old logging road running toward the top of the mountain, providing access into the acreage & potential build sites along the way.
A spring-fed creek runs along the roadside & the elevated terrain opens up impressive views over Union County. Near the top of the property, fencing borders neighboring pasture where cattle graze, adding to the quiet country setting.
With no restrictions, the possibilities are wide open. Build a private mountain home, cabin, barndominium, hunting retreat, family compound, homestead, or simply hold the acreage as an investment. Power is available at the road & a survey is on file. Wells in the area generally range from 370-620ft deep. The soil types & depth to bedrock are favorable for septic permit approval. Annual taxes were only $429 last year thanks to the property's greenbelt enrollment.
The location is hard to beat for anyone wanting both privacy & recreation. Norris Lake & local marinas are just minutes away, while Chuck Swan State Forest & Wildlife Management Area provides thousands of acres for hunting, fishing, horseback riding, mountain biking, & exploring. It's only 33 miles to Knoxville & 50-60 miles from Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge.
If you’ve been looking for a large, unrestricted tract in East Tennessee with genuine recreational & residential potential, this one deserves a look.
