Description
This 708+/- acre tract in Johnson County, Tennessee, offers a rare opportunity to own a large block of raw mountain land in one of the most scenic areas of Northeast Tennessee. Positioned roughly 20 minutes from Boone, North Carolina, this property combines the privacy and scale serious land buyers want with convenient access to a well-known mountain town, year-round recreation, and regional travel options. Johnson County is widely recognized for outdoor recreation, including hiking, biking, fishing, paddling, camping, and ATV riding, and for access to destinations such as Doe Mountain Recreation Area and Watauga Lake, which help support the area’s appeal to hunters, outdoor enthusiasts, investors, and buyers seeking a mountain basecamp. With elevations surpassing 3,800 feet, this mountain property delivers the kind of topography and vantage points that create long-range mountain panorama views and a true high country setting. The land is raw, rugged, and secluded, making it well-suited for those looking for a legacy tract, private recreational retreat, hunting land, or a future off-grid living or homesteading setup. Large acreage tracts with this kind of elevation profile and privacy are increasingly hard to find, especially in a location that still allows practical access to nearby towns, services, and outdoor destinations. The size of the tract also provides flexibility for trail systems, multiple cabin or camp locations, secluded overlooks, and long-term land stewardship. For hunting- and wildlife-minded buyers, the habitat, elevation changes, and remote character of this property offer the ingredients many people look for in mountain recreational land. The setting supports the feel of a true wilderness holding where you can spend the morning glassing ridges, the afternoon exploring the terrain, and the evening taking in layered mountain sunsets. This is the kind of property that invites hiking, riding, camping, backcountry recreation, and the satisfaction of owning a substantial piece of Appalachian mountain ground. In a market where many mountain parcels are either too small, too improved, or too exposed to neighboring development, this tract stands out for its raw character and wide open potential. The location is another major strength. Mountain City, the county seat of Johnson County, is approximately 24 miles from Boone, North Carolina, giving you access to shopping, dining, seasonal tourism, and additional recreation while keeping your land ownership rooted in Tennessee mountain country. Mountain City is also roughly 42 miles from Johnson City, Tennessee, and about 43 miles from Bristol, Tennessee. For buyers who value private air access, Boone Inc Airport, a nearby public-use general aviation airport in Boone, features a 2,700-foot runway, offering a convenient option for private aircraft access to the region. Whether your vision is a private mountain getaway, a large recreational holding, a hunting and trail property, or an off-grid homestead setting with commanding views, this Johnson County land tract checks boxes that are difficult to duplicate.
The combination of 708+/- acres, raw mountain terrain, seclusion, mountain panorama views, 3,800+ foot elevation, wildlife appeal, and proximity to Boone, NC gives this property broad appeal across multiple buyer profiles. If you have been searching for East Tennessee mountain land with scale, scenery, privacy, and freedom to shape it around your own goals, this tract deserves a hard look. No mining of any kind will be allowed. Parcel number to be determined by the new paper survey and the special warranty deed provided by the seller. Taxes to be determined.
