Property Description
Some properties check boxes. This one opens doors -- twenty minutes from McLemore Resort and Golf Club, and a world away from the noise. Forty-two acres of Lookout Mountain land -- rolling pasture giving way to wooded ridgeline, three spring-fed ponds catching morning light, and the kind of unhurried quiet that's increasingly hard to find. Four parcels conveying together, bordered by classic three-rail estate fencing, with the bones of something lasting already in place. At the center of it all: a 1987 log cabin, 1,245 square feet of honest craftsmanship waiting on the right owner. The structure is sound; the vision is yours. Restore it as a primary residence, reimagine it as a weekend retreat, or repurpose it as a guesthouse while you build the home you've always had in mind. Land is patient. A large barn with RV-height doors anchors the operational side of the property -- ample room for equipment, livestock, or whatever a working land holding demands. Whether you're planning an equestrian operation or simply want the infrastructure to match the acreage, it's already here. The possibilities here are genuinely open-ended. Legacy estate, multi-generational compound, hobby farm, equestrian facility, hunting retreat, or long-term land hold - the acreage and layout support them all. Twenty minutes to McLemore Resort and Golf Club. Thirty minutes to Cloudland Canyon and DeSoto State Park. One hour to Chattanooga. Two hours to Atlanta's international airport. Come see if this is the right place to build your dream. Private tours available by appointment.
