Recreational Land for Sale in Shady Valley, Tennessee
540 Jim Wright Rd, Shady Valley, TN 37688
Gorgeous 31 acre parcel with cleared areas, mature hardwoods, a rustic cabin, bold water, and bordering over 10,000 acres of Cherokee National Forest! Truly one of the most incredible pieces that you may ever set foot on! Located in the gorgeous and peaceful Shady Valley, enjoy paved access all the way to the gate. Private gravel driveway follows the Jim Wright branch which originates in the national forest and flows noisily and boldly through the entire property. Once at the cabin you will be drawn to the peaceful setting with apple trees in the field, the sounds and sights of the stream off of the front porch, and the incredible feeling that you have escaped all of the worries of the world and are tucked away into your own paradise. Cabin was wired for a generator with a couple of lights and has utilized spring water in the past, but is a completely off-grid oasis. New metal roof a couple of years ago for peace of mind that it is ready for camping and relaxing for many years to come. Follow an additional driveway from the cabin site and up onto the cleared knoll where sweeping vistas across Shady Valley and the mountains beyond could be had with minimal view enhancement. Road bed in place leading right into the Cherokee National Forest for ample hiking and hunting opportunities, making it an outdoorsman's dream! Abundant wildlife would include ample deer, turkey, and black bear just to name a few. Centrally located to Mountain City, Elizabethton, Damascus, and Bristol all within a scenic 20-40 minute drive where amenities and adventure truly await in every direction. Enjoy complete privacy and seclusion while only being 3-4 minutes from necessities at the Shady Valley Country Store or Dollar General. Take time to view the video and come and explore this incredibly rare and special place today!
