Description

''If you've ever wanted a piece of ground the deer, turkey, and black bear already call home, this is it.'' 89.608 Acres | Claiborne County, TN | Adjoins Cumberland Trail State Park Some properties you buy for the house. This one, you buy for everything else. Tucked into the ridges of Claiborne County, this 89.608-acre wooded tract shares a border with the Cumberland Trail State Park Hiking Trail -- meaning your new backyard connects directly to some of the most protected, pristine hiking terrain in East Tennessee. This isn't a lot with a view of the woods. This is the woods. The land sits on the south side of the ridge, dropping from 2,500 feet down to 1,335 feet in elevation, giving you a rare mix of high ridge building sites and low, sheltered hollows. A small stream meanders along the southern border, carving through terrain that's 100 percent woodland -- thick, mature timber that's never been chopped up by roads, restrictions, or rooftops.

A small stream meanders along the southern border, carving through terrain that's 100 percent woodland -- thick, mature timber that's never been chopped up by roads, restrictions, or rooftops. And that's the part serious buyers care about most: this property is unrestricted. No HOA. No zoning board telling you what you can build, where you can build it, or what you can do with your own dirt. Whether your plan is a secluded cabin, a hunting retreat, or land you never have to explain to anyone, this tract gives you the freedom to make that call yourself. Speaking of hunting -- this ground is loaded. Whitetail deer, wild turkey, black bear, and small game move through this terrain regularly, and with 100 percent wooded cover and a water source running the border, it's easy to see why. Avid hunters looking for a private, unpressured tract will understand the value here immediately. Location matters too. You're within a thirty-minute drive of Lee County, Virginia, and Middlesboro, Kentucky -- tri-state access without giving up the quiet. And with yearly property taxes of just $222.30, the carrying cost on a tract this size is about as low as it gets in East Tennessee. Access comes via a right-of-way with a road maintenance agreement in place, and the full 89.608 acres has been professionally surveyed -- no guesswork, no boundary disputes, just a clean tract ready to build your East Tennessee story on. This one is going to an online auction, running September 9 through October 9, 2026. If you've been waiting for a tract that offers privacy, water, elevation, game, and freedom from restrictions -- this is the one to watch.
