What a peaceful forest escape you'll find in this serene mountain property just a few minutes east of the quiet town of Booneville. Nobody is driving through your property or past your peaceful retreat with this perfectly sized, true, end-of-the-road tract of land. With this property, you own the entire upper portion of the watershed as the county road ends at the entrance, and it's completely unrestricted, so you can build what you want, how you want. Tucked away just off Straight Fk/Zeke Branch Road is a beautiful valley called Barrett Road with big hardwood forest ridges and valleys, providing that quiet privacy everyone is looking for. This tract takes in vast hillsides, natural benches, and cresting points with rocky peaks and knobs. It comprises a natural mix of young oak/hickory hardwoods along the upper slopes and ridge tops with soft mast red maple, yellow poplar, American beech, and even a few conifers in a couple of pockets along the lower elevations and valleys. An excellent blend of understory, midstory, and top canopy throughout the valley provides excellent cover, habitat, and browse for wildlife. The textured topography and vast space provide a multitude of ideal cabin sites with beautiful views and privacy, especially in the upper elevations. This property already boasts a graveled driveway into the interior of the property with a cleared cabin site ready to go for the cabin or homesite you've always dreamed of. There are good locations for building a pond near the cabin site as well. A network of roads throughout could be established with a bit of work and could provide moving throughout the property a breeze on ATVs and UTVs. Internet and electricity could be accessed along the western edge of the property along the route on Barrett Road. The terrain here boasts a 380' elevation change throughout the entire property. This property is ideally suited for a weekend getaway in the mountains to hunt big mountain bucks, turkey, or even bear. Perhaps you want to establish a small homestead or hike, ride ATVs or horses, camp, or explore the history embedded in these ancient Appalachian ridges; what you do here is up to you, as there are no restrictions on this beautiful piece of American dirt. The possibilities are almost endless when you customize this beautiful landscape to your liking. If this type of relaxation and adventure sounds like what you've been missing, call me, and let's see if this beautiful tract of land is right for you.
