OPPORTUNITIES:
Indian Mountain offers a diverse range of potential uses. Recreational enthusiasts will be able to chase whitetail deer and turkeys or enjoy trail riding on an ATV. The varied terrain within the property not only provides a unique wildlife habitat but also offers stunning views from the top of the mountain.
With its beautiful landscape, there are numerous ideal locations for homesites. An hour north of Knoxville, the entrance to the property is just eight minutes to I-75 in Jellico, making it convenient as both a primary residence or a secondary home. If a peaceful quiet town is what you are looking for, this is a great area to consider. While the neighboring properties north and west of the property are larger landowners, the landholdings east of the property towards Jellico mainly consist of larger 2-to-10 acre homesteads, and the future potential of offering mountainside homesites would be a feasible higher and better use of the property.
Additionally, the coal reserves identified with the mountain present economic or conservation opportunities, enhancing the propertys diverse potential and value.
