About this home

Perfectly set on +-74 acres with beautiful pastures, this exceptional mountain land offers a great opportunity for an authentic mountain farm! The rolling pastures are the true highlight of the property, offering endless mountain views along with well-manicured areas that have a gentle topography. Other natural features include plentiful wildlife, creeks and springs, hardwood and pine forests, and views! Multiple potential home sites can be selected throughout the property, offering plentiful options for subdivision, a family compound, also long-term investment value. The c.1890s farmhouse offers nostalgia and authenticity, and is ready for your personal updates to modernize the home. The old homeplace sits just off the state-maintained, paved road for easy access to downtown Franklin and US 441, both only minutes away. All considered, this gorgeous land offers an excellent opportunity to own coveted rolling pastures with both privacy and convenience, a rare combination on the market!
