About This Home

Discover 20.8 unrestricted acres where rolling pasture, fertile meadows, mature hardwoods, and a year-round mountain stream come together to create the kind of property that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. Tucked into a picturesque mountain valley with only one neighboring home in sight, 488 Cad Campbell Road offers the privacy, beauty, and freedom to create the farm, homestead, or mountain retreat you've been dreaming of.

A beautiful stream naturally divides the land while providing additional character, peaceful sounds, and easy access for you to enjoy. Whether you're envisioning livestock grazing in the open fields, gardens flourishing in the rich valley floor, hiking your own wooded acreage, or simply relaxing, this property offers endless possibilities.

Designed with self-sufficiency in mind, the home is serviced by mountain spring water and even features a gravity-fed outdoor spigot that continues to function during power outages. With a few additional improvements, this property has excellent potential for an off-grid lifestyle.

Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully updated farmhouse featuring a fully renovated kitchen with new cabinetry, appliances, and lighting, along with a separate laundry room complete with a new washer and dryer. The home is heated by a cozy wood stove and propane wall heater, while two mini-split systems are included and ready for installation. Additional improvements include double-pane windows and new flooring.

The main level offers two bedrooms and an updated bathroom. Upstairs, a flexible bonus space is filled with natural light and overlooks both the front pasture and wooded acreage, making it ideal for a home office, studio, guest space, or additional living area.

The land continues to impress with abundant wildlife, excellent foraging opportunities, a small root cellar for storage, a cinderblock outbuilding, and a large barn that previously had both water and electricity—ready to be restored into a working barn, workshop, or hobby farm centerpiece.

Located less than four minutes from Dollar General, approximately 30 minutes to Burnsville or Spruce Pine, and just 35 minutes to Johnson City, you'll enjoy the perfect blend of peaceful country living and everyday convenience.

Whether you're searching for a working farm, a recreational getaway, or a private mountain homestead with room to grow, opportunities like this are few and far between. Offered as-is. No drive-bys. Showings by appointment only.
