OFF THE GRID. This unique cabin is waiting for anyone who is looking to live off grid and be somewhat self-sufficient. It would also be an attractive vacation escape since it is right down the road from trout fishing & rafting in the Hiwassee River, as well as hiking in the Cherokee National Forest. The survey shows the property extends across the road to the middle of Spring Creek, a tributary of the Hiwassee River. The cabin itself has a great room, bedroom, and bathroom. Water is supplied by a water system that was set up to pump water from Spring Creek into holding tanks. A generator or solar panels would be needed for power. A potbelly wood stove in the great room provides heat during cold months. The deck at the back of the cabin has a pretty view, and there's room in the backyard for a garden. Detached double carport. Cabin is very basic and some finish work might be desired but cabin can be occupied during completion; Seller occupied the home. Steep driveway; 4wd needed.
