A Place Where History Meets Possibility
Perched among the rolling hills of East Tennessee, 1390 Wright Rd is more than land—it's a story waiting for its next chapter. On these 50 unrestricted acres, you'll find two homes: one that you can live in but is yearning for modern updates, and the other—an original hand-hewn log homestead—a rare piece of Appalachian history ready to be lovingly restored.
From the moment you arrive, the magical 360-degree views wrap around you like an old friend, with the Cherokee National Forest forming your back boundary, ensuring privacy and a lifetime of adventure just beyond your fence line. A natural spring still bubbles here, just as it did when the property was a thriving working farm—and it holds all the promise to be one again.
Here, your dreams have no limits: keep it as your own private mountain estate, return it to its farming roots, or subdivide into multiple homesites so others can share in the beauty. This is a place where sunsets linger longer, stars shine brighter, and history whispers in the breeze.
