Property Description
Nestled in a clearing surrounded by forest, a 24-by-24-foot shed has been thoughtfully converted into a welcoming one-bedroom, one-bath mountain cabin. Inside, wood walls and ceilings, exposed beams, and large windows give the space warmth and character while bringing the outdoors into view. A wood stove with a substantial stone hearth anchors the living area, providing a comfortable place to unwind after a day on the mountain. Outside, the deck offers a quiet spot for morning coffee, fresh air, and time spent enjoying the surrounding woods.
The cabin operates completely off-grid with a 24-volt solar power system using four 6-volt, 400-amp-hour batteries, 3000w inverter which the owner reports maintaining the batteries by not discharging them less than 90% to support longevity. A separate 12-volt backup system powers the kitchen lighting and refrigerator. Refrigerator is also powered by propane. A gravity-fed water system collects water from a mountain seep into two 275-gallon tanks, with an additional 250-gallon backup tank. An outdoor shower includes a black preheater enclosure for warming water s well as a propane water heater for inside. A Starlink Mini and an installed cell service repeater provide options for staying connected from this private mountain setting. With all of these features, this property is turn-key and ready for it's new owners.
A well-maintained trail system winds throughout the acreage, making it easy to explore the land on foot or in the included 2003 Kawasaki Mule 2510 side-by-side. Mature hickory, poplar, oak, maple, magnolia, beech, and cherry trees cover the landscape, and game cameras have captured bear, deer, bobcat, and turkey. Long-range mountain views and the adjoining national forest add to the property's appeal, while an included shipping container provides practical storage for equipment and supplies.
Approximately 13 miles from Hampton, 18 miles from Elizabethton, and 27 miles from Johnson City, this property offers room to roam, an established off-grid setup, and the opportunity to put your own personal touch on a beautiful piece of East Tennessee.
