About this home

Discover an exceptional opportunity to own 5.05 acres of beautiful, mature woodland just minutes from the heart of Knoxville. Ideally situated near the historic Holston Hills community and east of downtown, this rare property offers the perfect balance of peaceful seclusion and everyday convenience. Towering oak, poplar, and pine trees create a picturesque natural setting, offering privacy, beauty, and the potential for valuable timber. Whether you're envisioning a custom estate, a private retreat, or an investment in one of Knoxville's most desirable growth areas, this property provides the ideal canvas to bring your vision to life. Utilities are already on the property, making the path toward development even more convenient. Enjoy the freedom of no HOA while being subject only to Knox County restrictions. With quick access to both I-40 and I-640, you'll be just minutes from downtown Knoxville's dining, shopping, entertainment, and employment centers while still enjoying the tranquility of your own wooded sanctuary. According to FEMA maps, the property is located in Zone X (500-year flood plain), adding another layer of confidence as you explore its possibilities. Opportunities to find more than five acres this close to downtown Knoxville, are increasingly rare! Additional benefits of this location: 10 minutes to the new Covenant Health Park baseball stadium, only 30 minutes to the Great Smoky Mountains, and 20 miles to the airport. If you've been searching for a property that combines natural beauty, exceptional convenience, and endless potential (multiple rentals anyone?), this one deserves your attention.
