Nestled atop the scenic Richland Knobs area just outside Rutledge, this breathtaking 39.29-ACRE TRACT offers the perfect blend of privacy, natural beauty, and opportunity. Whether you're dreaming of building a forever home, mountain getaway, hunting retreat, or family compound, this property provides multiple potential building sites with stunning ridge-top settings and peaceful East Tennessee surroundings. The current owner thoughtfully created a path leading to one of the property's premier FLAT RIDGE-TOP HOMESITES, where he planned to build his dream home. From this elevated setting, you'll enjoy the tranquility and natural beauty that make mountain living so desirable. Nature lovers will appreciate the property's unique features, including a NATURAL CAVE, a SPRING THAT THE OWNER HAS NEVER KNOWN TO RUN DRY, and several mature PEAR AND APPLE TREES scattered throughout the land. The acreage consists of a beautiful mix of rolling woodland and open areas, creating excellent opportunities for hiking, exploring, wildlife viewing, gardening, recreation, or establishing a private homestead. Adding to the property's appeal is an abundance of MATURE HARDWOOD TIMBER throughout much of the tract. Buyers may wish to explore the potential timber value while still preserving the beauty and privacy that the hardwood forest provides. A SHED WITH AN ATTACHED LEAN-TO provides a convenient place for equipment, tools, or recreational gear while you explore and develop the property. An established TRAIL SYSTEM already leads to one of the property's most desirable ridge-top building locations. Located in the scenic RICHLAND KNOBS AREA OF GRAINGER COUNTY, this property offers the best of both worlds--peaceful country living while remaining just minutes from downtown Rutledge. Rutledge is known for its small-town charm, rich agricultural heritage, friendly community, and convenient access to CHEROKEE LAKE, one of East Tennessee's premier destinations for boating, fishing, kayaking, and outdoor recreation. Grainger County is famous for its rolling mountain ridges, fertile farmland, and breathtaking seasonal scenery. Richland Knobs provides elevated terrain, beautiful hardwood forests, abundant wildlife, and the kind of privacy that is becoming increasingly difficult to find in East Tennessee. With approximately 39.29 SURVEYED ACRES, MULTIPLE RIDGE-TOP BUILDING SITES, MATURE HARDWOOD TIMBER, a NATURAL CAVE, YEAR-ROUND SPRING, PEAR AND APPLE TREES, SHED WITH LEAN-TO, and exceptional mountain character, this property is a rare opportunity to create your own East Tennessee legacy. PLEASE NOTE THAT ONLY THE SURVEYED 39.29-ACRE TRACT IS BEING OFFERED FOR SALE. ANY VEHICLES, EQUIPMENT, AND DEBRIS CURRENTLY LOCATED ON THE PROPERTY WILL BE REMOVED PRIOR TO CLOSING. EXPERIENCE THE PROPERTY THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO BE SEEN! WEEKLY GUIDED SIDE-BY-SIDE TOURS WILL BE AVAILABLE BY APPOINTMENT, ALLOWING BUYERS TO EXPLORE THE TRAIL SYSTEM, RIDGE-TOP HOMESITE, CAVE, SPRING, HARDWOOD FORESTS, AND OTHER UNIQUE FEATURES OF THIS REMARKABLE PROPERTY. CONTACT YOUR AGENT TODAY TO SCHEDULE A TOUR. Come walk the land, breathe the mountain air, and discover the possibilities for yourself.
