Whether your goal is a self-sustaining homestead, a serious cattle or horse operation, a recreational retreat, or an investment with multiple exit strategies, this 59+ acre tract is built for real-world use and long-term value. The brick ranch home is as neat as they come--a spotless, non-smoking household that has been cared for with pride. Inside, you'll find 3 bedrooms and a large, updated country kitchen designed for everyday living and family gatherings. Quartz countertops, plenty of cabinets, and modern conveniences--including a dishwasher and microwave--make it easy to run a busy home or host guests. The living room features crown molding, hardwood floors, and a Vermont Castings wood stove, giving the space a warm, classic East Tennessee feel. Vinyl windows with blinds, ceiling fans, laundry hookups, and a large bathroom round out the comfort on the main level. Downstairs, the clean walkout lower level offers additional flexibility--perfect for expanded living space, guest quarters, hobby space, or storage--plus a garage for practical day-to-day convenience. Central systems are already in place, including a newer HVAC system, tankless hot water, a private well, whole-house water filtration, and a UV sterilization system. Add the metal roof, low utilities, unbelievably low annual property taxes, and high-speed internet, and you have a property that works as well on paper as it does in person. Step outside, and you'll see what makes this farm truly special: it is ready for horses or cattle today. The land is thoughtfully improved with five lush, green, five-strand cross-fenced pastures--ideal for rotational grazing, hay production, and efficient herd management. Each pasture offers its own unique features, supported by an automatic livestock watering system that helps keep chores streamlined. For the serious beef producer, the deluxe cattle corral system is a standout, featuring corral holding pens and cattle squeeze chutes anchored on a concrete slab foundation--real infrastructure that's expensive to replicate. You'll also appreciate the outbuildings and farm support features, including two hay barns, a feeder building, a tool/feed building, round bale feeders, and concrete feed troughs. For the homesteader, the property continues to deliver with a deluxe chicken coop, multiple extensive fertile vegetable gardens, and raised beds ready for planting. There's even a mature, fruit-producing orchard with apples, pears, peaches, plums, and cherries--along with berries, nut trees, and a sugar bush for producing maple syrup. This is not just land--it's a working, producing setup built for a lifestyle. Recreation and wildlife are equally strong. With multiple deluxe hunting blinds, established food plots, spring-fed seasonal creeks, and a Green Belt Forest management plan with mature hardwood timber, this property supports hunting, hiking, and outdoor living with genuine substance. Approximately 87% woodland and 11% pasture provide the ideal mix of cover, privacy, and usable open ground. Oil, gas, and mineral rights convey, adding another layer of long-term value. And for buyers thinking beyond traditional use, the no-restriction status opens the door to unique income potential. With two driveway entrances on a well-maintained paved county road with extremely low traffic, this tract presents an outstanding opportunity for a campground, RV park, multi-cabin Airbnb development, tiny home community, or group compound concept--especially with nearby attractions like the Clinch River for kayaking and tubing, plus tournament-class bass fishing, hunting, and hiking. Located only minutes to public boat launches and close to Cherokee and Norris Lakes, Cumberland Gap Natio
