Live, work, and thrive on this one-of-a-kind Tennessee property that blends peaceful country living with endless potential.
Nestled between Nashville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga, this special property offers the rare combination of residential, agricultural, and commercial acreage all on one parcel. Just five minutes from the stunning Burgess Falls and surrounded by state parks, waterfalls, and rolling hills, it's the ideal setting for those seeking clean air, open space, and a slower, more intentional lifestyle. Enjoy fishing in the deep-water stocked pond, or just enjoy the view coming and going from your rural retreat.
Enjoy fertile soil, fresh air, and a deep, natural water source on land that has been organically cared for over two decades.

Foundation work has been done for a larger garage, pool house, expanded primary suite, and welcoming front portico.
At the front of the property, the commercial acreage and existing buildings offer incredible potential for a cafe, farmers market, or boutique retreat--just minutes from one of Tennessee's most visited natural attractions.
Here, you can create a home, a lifestyle, and even a business--all on your own piece of Tennessee paradise.
