Approximately 200 tons of rock have been brought in to establish the driveway and riverside build pad, adding both function and long-term value to the property. Multiple power options are already in place with three separate 100-amp electric boxes plus a 30-amp RV hookup, making the property ideal for weekend retreats, future expansion, RV living, or entertaining guests. Ben Lomand fiber internet and a DirectTV dish provide modern convenience in this peaceful rural setting. Water is currently supplied through a neighboring metered connection, with the main water line located approximately 1,000 feet away. Importantly, the upper portion of the property has already been perked for a future home, sits outside the FEMA flood zone, and offers endless possibilities for building your dream river view home. With no restrictions and no HOA, this property gives you the freedom to create the lifestyle you want, whether that's a luxury riverfront getaway, an investment property, full-time tiny home living, or a future custom home overlooking one of Tennessee's most beautiful rivers. The property extends on both sides of the road and is partially fenced, providing flexibility, privacy, and room to grow. Properties like this on the Caney Fork River are incredibly hard to find. Shown by Appointment Only. (Buyer to verify all information before making an informed offer.)
