Tucked away in the rolling hills of Greene County, Tennessee, this 34-acre wooded tract offers the kind of privacy, natural beauty, and versatility that's getting harder to find. Covered in large timber including White Oak, Red Oak, Poplar, and scattered cedar, this property delivers that classic East Tennessee mountain feel with a peaceful setting that's perfect for getting off the grid without being too far from town. With direct access from Wattenbarger Gap Road, a well-maintained county road, you'll have easy, reliable entry year-round. One of the standout features of this property is the flexibility it offers with three distinct build sites. At the base, you'll find an easily accessible homesite right off the road. Further in, a second site sits tucked into the middle of the property, offering total privacy and seclusion ideal for a quiet cabin retreat. At the top, a third build site opens up to incredible elevated views, giving you that ''top of the mountain'' feel that East Tennessee buyers are always chasing. An old logging road already winds its way through the property, providing a solid foundation for access to each of these locations with just a little clearing and maintenance. Water features add even more character, with a small spring and seasonal creeks weaving through the landscape. The land is absolutely loaded with wildlife, making it a prime hunting tract for deer, turkey, and even bear. Whether you're looking for your own private hunting retreat, a family getaway, or a potential investment with cabin rentals, this property checks all the boxes. Location is another major advantage. You're less than 10 minutes from Interstate 81 (Exit 36), making travel simple and convenient. Greeneville is just 25 minutes away for everyday essentials, while Johnson City offering major shopping, dining, and the region's Level 1 trauma center is only a 40-minute drive. And when it's time for entertainment or tourism, you're just over an hour from Pigeon Forge, with Gatlinburg right beyond. This is a rare opportunity to own a sizable, usable tract with strong access, multiple build options, and serious long-term potential in East Tennessee.
