You could build next to one of the pastures, near the stream, or in the trees. The best building site is accessed by a pretty good road bed far from the edge of the property, and perched above the pastures with dominion over the lower acreage. There is an existing 19th century cabin on the property that was stabilized about 10 years ago by the current owners. This cabin has tremendous potential depending on your vision. The front of the property borders Belcher Loop, which has almost no traffic, while the back of the property consists of forest with topography that becomes steep as the land approaches the mountain bike trails on Lovin Road. The beauty of this property is the rural secluded lifestyle that you can create in nature. This is the perfect place to Build Your Mountain Compound, Create an Equestrian Property, Setup an East Tennessee Hunting Lodge, or Live a Carefree Life at Your Own Nature Preserve.
