About This Lot
This property is what people mean when they say they want freedom. Just over 9 unrestricted acres on a state paved road, with U.S. Forest Service land bordering the back, giving you the feel of thousands of acres to enjoy right out your back door. Even better, you can walk through the Forest Service to both Lake Hiwassee and Cherokee Lake, making this an incredible mix of mountain privacy and nearby water access. Lake Hiwassee is only about 0.55 miles away and Cherokee Lake is about 0.72 miles away. No HOA. No restrictive rules. No one telling you what to do with your own land. The property also has old pasture that could be reclaimed for even more usable ground, whether you are dreaming of a homesite, garden space, animals, or just a more open setting. Hard to find, easy to love, and full of possibilities.
