If you have been dreaming of building a sprawling family compound, starting a working cattle or horse farm, or simply owning your own private mountain valley, this is the place to make it happen. Tucked away in a quiet, low-traffic area of Murphy, this massive property offers the ultimate luxury -- room to breathe. The landscape seamlessly blends gorgeous rolling & fenced pastures, mature hardwoods, big mountain views, with multiple creeks running throughout that provide natural water sources and a peaceful backdrop. Access and logistics are an absolute breeze, thanks to fantastic road frontage on three different state-maintained roads. The land is incredibly well-equipped to meet your vision right out of the gate. It features multiple barns and sheds--including a newer primary barn--and extensive fencing providing a massive head start on any farming or equestrian goals. Spread across this expansive acreage are endless premium building sites to choose from for your main estate. There is also an established brick home on the property that is ready to be transformed into a guest cottage, farm office or a place to stay while you build your luxury generational estate paired with a 3-car garage, and multiple outbuildings.
