About This Lot

Discover the rare opportunity to own 25 acres of private mountain property adjoining National Forest land, with established roads, multiple homesites, year-round mountain views and plenty of possibilities. One homesite features upper and lower drives, an installed 3-bedroom septic system and exceptional mountain views. A second homesite includes a storage shed, small spring and an expired 2-bedroom septic permit. Both homesites are at 2,900 feet in elevation, offering cooler summer temperatures and an authentic mountain retreat setting. The property consists of four adjoining lots totaling 24.98 acres. Restrictions have expired on the two main lots, while the additional two lots have very minimal restrictions allowing nearly any type or size of dwelling, garage, shed or barn, with the exception of mobile homes. The property borders USFS land and has at least two springs originating on the property, along with abundant wildlife that adds to the peaceful, natural setting. Power and fiber internet are available at the end of Sundown Drive, right at the beginning of the property, and cell service is also excellent. Tucked away at the end of the road, this property feels wonderfully private and secluded while still being just 10 miles from the charming mountain town of Franklin, offering restaurants, breweries, shopping, healthcare and year-round mountain festivals. Sundown Drive and the private roads within the property are steep in parts, so AWD or 4WD is recommended; a Subaru or similar vehicle should handle them well. Search the property address on YouTube to see the video, then come experience this exceptional mountain property for yourself before it's gone!
