About this home

*Lot next door is being sold separately.* Rare opportunity to own a build-ready waterfront lot on the Little Tennessee River in one of East Tennessee's most scenic destinations. Located on the iconic Cherohala Skyway, this exceptional property offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, convenience, and freedom with no HOA and no HOA fees. The property has already been thoughtfully prepared, allowing you to focus on building the home you've been dreaming of. Utilities are in place, the asphalt access is less than two years old, and the site is ready for construction. Architectural guidelines require a green metal roof with a 10/12 pitch and prohibit vinyl siding, helping preserve the quality and appeal of the surrounding homes. Wake up to peaceful river views, spend your afternoons kayaking, fishing, or simply relaxing along the water, then enjoy dinner just steps away at Iron Works Grille. You'll also be less than five minutes from downtown Tellico Plains, where you'll find local shopping, restaurants, coffee shops, and community events. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being just minutes from the Cherohala Skyway, Cherokee National Forest, Bald River Falls, and multiple hiking trails, offering endless opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, scenic drives, waterfalls, and exploring the beauty of East Tennessee. Whether you're planning a primary residence, vacation home, or weekend retreat, this property offers a rare combination of riverfront living, small-town charm, and unmatched access to outdoor recreation. Build-ready waterfront properties with no HOA are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Don't miss your chance to create your custom home on the beautiful Little Tennessee River.
