Residential Land for Sale in Jonesborough, Tennessee
1221 Shell Rd, Jonesborough, TN 37659
If you have been waiting on the right piece of land to build on, this is it. 4.88 unrestricted acres just outside beautiful Jonesborough, Tennessee's oldest town, with the kind of long view you do not get tired of. The land is mostly cleared, gently rolling open pasture with frontage on a paved county road -- no shared drive, no road to cut in, and easy access year round. Public water, sewer, and utilities are available, which takes the cost and the guesswork of a well and septic system off the table before you ever break ground. Unrestricted, so bring your own plans and your own builder, and still have room left for a shop, a barn, a garden, or a few animals. Served by sought-after Washington County schools and only minutes from downtown Jonesborough's shops, restaurants, and festivals, with Johnson City, ETSU, and I-26 an easy drive. Cleared, unrestricted acreage on public utilities with a view is getting harder to find.
