Please visit the Virtual Tour/Website for more photos and information. Located in Upper East Tennessee, this beautiful place is a rare find. When I bought it almost 23 years ago, I never dreamed I would own a place like this. With the ponds, lake, trout stream, bordering the National Forest, it's like having my own State Park. I am the first person ever to live on this land, and I will be happy to tell the story of the land to any who inquire. The cabin that is on the land, I remodeled and lived there for 8 years before designing and building a house for myself beside the lake, with incredible views. The photographs were taken from the front porch. The potential for this place is unlimited. It all depends on where you want to go with it. Many beautiful building sites, again, with incredible views. The two houses, barn, shop, pump house, etc., add value to the place, but the real value comes from it's location. Where in the country can a person be in a 60,000 person city,(Johnson City, Tn) and in 15 minutes be in the National Forest. Asheville, NC, voted one of the best cities to live in the United States http://realestatescorecard.com/area-information/western-north-carolina/asheville is but a 45 minute drive via the beautiful scenic route over Sam's Gap on I-26. The reason I am selling this incredible place, is because I am now 58 years old, and it's time to scale back, and make one last move in my life. I have been a self-employed carpenter/contractor for 24 years, and it's time to think about retirement. I have designed and plan to build a small house for myself. With Asheville, NC real estate and taxes being very expensive, Upper East Tennessee's popularity is rising. With property taxes of only $960 per year, and no state income tax, and having access to western North Carolina with the beautiful countryside and climate, you can understand why. You may think $425,000 is expensive (Where Zillow gets its Zestimate, I don't know), but after seeing what the land offers, with its location, and compared to a large house in a subdivision, the price is not unreasonable. This place is not for everyone, but if you're looking for a place such as this, it is a once in a lifetime find. Give me a call 423-743-0712 and I will be happy to take you on a tour, or answer any questions you may have. Again, please visit the Virtual tour/website for more photographs and information.
