This 234 acre mountain retreat overlooks the N. Holston River Valley from both it's 3.5 acre open field down by the state road, which is a wonderful place for a new cabin and the views expand as you take the high road up to the elevated homesite that has an expansive 180 degree view of the valley and the River Ridge mountain on the other side of the river. The property rises from an elevation of 1,520 ft along the valley road to a height of 2,960 ft along the crest of the mountain ridge. A bold spring originates at an elevation of 2,800 ft and cascades down the mountain over 1,300 ft with pools and water falls along the way. You could easily make a small dam and add a 4 inch pipe to drive an electric turbine generator should you wish to live off the grid. The sound of the stream tumbling down through the rocks is very appealing. Past logging created an array of 4x4 trails throughout the property, now used by deer, bobcats & bear to traverse this dynamic terrain. Only 17 min to Abingdon
