17+ Private Acres | 3 Homes | 2 Buildable Lots | Endless Opportunity There's a place in East Tennessee where the mountains meet the river, and life naturally slows to a more peaceful pace. Tucked deep within this stunning landscape is a rare and remarkable opportunity — a private 17+ acre retreat offering three distinct dwellings, two additional buildable lots, and limitless potential for those seeking space, serenity, and a deeper connection to nature. Surrounded by the Cherokee National Forest, this unique property is more than just a piece of land — it's a lifestyle. Whether you're looking for a quiet mountain homestead, a multi-generational family compound, or an investment in East Tennessee's thriving vacation rental market, this property offers the flexibility to make your vision a reality. At the heart of the land sits the main home, featuring two bedrooms, one bathroom, and an attached two-car garage. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and an open-concept layout that invites both connection and comfort — perfect for quiet mornings or hosting friends and family. Nearby, two rustic loft-style cabins add charm and versatility. Ideal for guest accommodations, rental income, creative studios, or independent living, each cabin offers a cozy, self-contained retreat that blends beautifully into the natural surroundings. But the true magic lies in the land itself. Private walking trails wind through mature trees, leading to quiet clearings, native wildlife, and two additional buildable sites. Whether you envision adding more cabins, crafting a secluded garden sanctuary, or expanding into a full retreat, the possibilities here are endless. Despite its private, off-the-beaten-path feel, adventure is never far away. Spend your weekends tubing down the Hiwassee River, hiking the trails of the Cherokee National Forest, or simply enjoying the natural rhythm of East Tennessee living. This is more than a property — it's a chance to live with intention, build a legacy, or invest in a truly special part of the Southeast. Whether you're drawn to the idea of going off-grid, creating a nature-focused getaway, or simply owning a piece of unspoiled land in one of Tennessee's most scenic regions, this is an opportunity you won't want to miss. Now available at auction — don't miss your chance to own this extraordinary East Tennessee retreat. Register and bid now at AlleyAuction.com.
