About this home
Welcome to one of the premier development opportunities in the Smoky Mountains. This remarkable 144-acre property offers an incredible combination of breathtaking mountain views, development-ready infrastructure, and an unbeatable location just 5 minutes from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park entrance and approximately 25 minutes from Gatlinburg. Currently approved as part of Maranatha Resort, this property presents endless possibilities for investors, developers, or those looking to create a one-of-a-kind mountain community. Approximately 10 cabins have already been built and sold within the development, proving both the desirability of the location and the vision behind the project. Continue building within the existing approved subdivision, or bring your own ideas and create something truly special. The property features multiple stunning building sites, each offering incredible long-range mountain views that capture the natural beauty of East Tennessee. An extensive road system has already been carved throughout much of the property, allowing easy access to many of the potential homesites while significantly reducing future development costs. Multiple entrances provide convenient access and flexibility for future planning. Nature lovers and future owners will appreciate the multiple creeks that flow throughout the property, adding to the peaceful mountain setting and creating the perfect backdrop for luxury cabins, vacation rentals, private estates, or a destination resort. Power is already available in several areas, providing an additional advantage for future construction. According to Cocke County, the property is approved and 100% buildable, making this a rare opportunity to purchase acreage that has already cleared many of the hurdles associated with mountain development. Whether your vision includes expanding the existing resort, creating a boutique cabin community, building a family retreat, or developing a completely new concept, the possibilities are virtually endless. The seller is willing to consider subdividing the property; however, the preference is to sell the entire 144-acre tract as one package, allowing the next owner to maximize the full potential of this exceptional investment. Large tracts with this combination of size, location, infrastructure, approved development status, multiple access points, flowing creeks, established roads, available utilities, and panoramic Smoky Mountain views are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Don't miss this opportunity to own and develop one of East Tennessee's most impressive mountain properties.
