25 Acres Appalachian Mountain Land

Homesteaders Dream 25 acres of rolling green canvas on which to paint your homesteading dream! Located in East Tennessee just 12 miles from Southeastern Kentucky, this property on Lone Road in Elk Valley is an oasis only an hour from Knoxville and central to famous national parks including The Great Smokey Mountain Park, Big South Fork, and Daniel Boone National Park. In addition, more than a dozen State Parks like Big Ridge, Cove Lake, and Indian Mountain surround this retreat with TVAs beautiful Norris Lake only minutes away stocked with trout, stripper, and small mouth. Norris 52 square miles of surface offer ample space to enjoy all types of water recreation. If ATV fun is to your thing, both Ride Royal Blue and Brimstone Recreation areas are just down the road. An all-weather spring runs across the southwestern corner of the approximately 10-acre pastured section with the balance of the property in mature forest. Wildlife is abundant. Whitetail deer, turkey, and elk visit throughout the year. Quiet neighbors live at a comfortable distance near the foot of the property while undisturbed timberland sits along the top creating a tranquil buffer between you and the skies above. A half-dozen natural locations, with views of Elk Valley and the Cumberland Plateau, give lots of homesite options. The property itself rolls along Pine Mountain on the east and is tucked behind Lone Mountain on the west. You have to see it to believe such an undisturbed setting still exists. The rural site provides both an effervescent supply of sunshine and fresh air, yet a county-maintained road connects you to any place you want to travel. All the expected amenities are available. Jellico Electric provides electrical services and water; however, if pure limestone well-water is your preference, Pine Mountain is known to be full of water and it is easy enough to have a well installed. LP gas is available through multiple local providers, and to stay in touch, high-speed internet and cellular phone services are also available and affordable. This private get-a-way, only a mile from State Highway 297 and 15 minutes from Interstate-75, was surveyed in 2008 and comes with 100% of mineral and water rights. The nearly traffic-free drive leaving the property passes tranquil Shadow-Ridge Tennessee Walking Horse Stables, Lone Mountain Limousine Cattle Ranch, and an area of manicured farms known locally as Little Lexington. A moderate climate in a tax-free state with rural freedom and quiet neighbors leave the rest to a homesteaders pallet or a dreamers creativity.
