+/- 478 Acres | Historic Appalachian Farm in Boozy Creek - Minutes from Bristol Welcome to The Holler - a breathtaking 478-acre farm that's been in the same family for five generations. Nestled in the Boozy Creek community of Scott County, this property offers extraordinary privacy, panoramic views, and a truly rare blend of history, beauty, and convenience. You're just 15 minutes from The Pinnacle shopping, The Bristol Hard Rock Casino, and downtown Bristol, yet a world away from it all. Surveyed in 2021, the property includes approximately 65 acres of pastureland used for cattle grazing, with the remainder in old-growth hardwood forest and pine. The land has served many roles over the years, once a major tobacco farm and the site of a working sawmill that employed over a dozen people daily. On the western ridge, you'll find two 1927 Frick steam engines that once powered the mill, standing like relics from another time. Nearby is a stunning hand-hewn, two-story log cabin constructed with poplar and oak dovetail logs estimated to date back to the mid-1800s. When you step into this part of the farm, it feels like you've traveled back in time. Entering from the east, you arrive at the main homestead, a 2BR, 1BA farmhouse originally built in the late 1800s with a kitchen addition from the early 1900s. The home underwent a full renovation in 1992 and has been updated several times since. It's fully furnished with period antiques and features red pine and poplar flooring. Surrounding the home are historic outbuildings, including a grainery, a two-story springhouse with a running spring and cistern, a smokehouse, and a 4-stall barn with loft. The land is affectionately called ''The Bowl'' in the east and ''Little Texas'' in the west due to its layout and wide-open feel. With ATV-accessible roads and countless natural features, this property is perfect for farming, building, hunting, or simply soaking in the Appalachian heritage.
