Public Remarks: Discover your own private mountain retreat with this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath cabin situated on 43+ acres consisting of 5 separate tracts in Newport, Tennessee. Perched atop a mountain, this 1½-story cabin offers views of Douglas Lake and the Great Smoky Mountains, creating the perfect setting for peaceful country living. With approximately 1,524 square feet of living space, the cabin features new Luxury vinyl plank flooring, partial new windows, a newer HVAC system, and a cozy wood stove for added warmth and character. This cabin has the potential to be fixed to make it your own oasis. Enjoy the outdoors from the reinforced porch, ready for firewood storage or the addition of a relaxing hot tub where you can take in the spectacular scenery. Nature lovers will appreciate the abundant wildlife, spring-fed pond with shared ownership, and established homestead amenities including a 12x24 greenhouse (non-commercial), chicken coop, elderberry bushes, two cherry trees, and fig bushes. The unfinished basement provides additional storage or future expansion possibilities. The property's five separate tracts offer exceptional investment potential, with opportunities to build additional cabins or homes while maintaining privacy and enjoying the natural beauty of East Tennessee. City water is the water source. There is a Well but it isn't working. Conveniently located less than an hour from Pigeon Forge and the Great Smoky Mountains, yet close to shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences in Newport, this rare offering combines seclusion, acreage, mountain and lake views, and unlimited possibilities. A deed restriction helps protect property values by prohibiting junk vehicles on the premises. Whether you're looking for a private residence, mountain getaway, homestead, or investment opportunity, this unique property delivers the best of Tennessee mountain living.
