46± Acres, Zoned RP-3, Development-Ready, Homestead Potential, Mountain Views Rare opportunity to own 46± acres inside Johnson City city limits -- where panoramic mountain views, rich natural features, and significant development groundwork converge on a single property. Whether you're a developer ready to build or a buyer dreaming of a private mountain homestead, this land delivers both the infrastructure and the character. Approximately 30 acres of open, gently rolling farmland - previously used for hay production - sits ready for development or agricultural use. The remaining 16± acres rise into two wooded mountain ridges with a dirt road accessing the high ground, where breathtaking panoramic views of Buffalo Mountain and Holston Mountain await. Old-growth black walnut, oak, and tulip poplar blanket the back of the property - the timber alone carries significant value and would be worth a professional assessment prior to any land clearing. White-tail deer and wild turkey frequent the land regularly, making the upper acreage a serious hunting retreat minutes from city amenities. A barn with original-character wood framing sits on the property - likely a teardown, but the salvageable timber is exceptional quality and potentially quite valuable. A functioning spring house of similar vintage features stone stairs descending to a still-flowing spring - a rare, working piece of Appalachian history. This property is rezoned RP-3 (Planned Residential District), allowing a minimum lot size of 4,000 sqft and up to 8.5 units per acre across the buildable acreage. Preliminary work already completed includes: - City water and electric available at Watauga Road - City sewer runs through the property (following the stream corridor) - 100 feet of road frontage on Watauga Road - Recent survey completed - Rough Grading Permit issued (City of Johnson City) - Construction General Permit issued (TDEC) - Approved Hydraulic Determination of Water Resources (TDEC) - Stream study and traffic study both completed - Engineered site plans available - may be conveyed to a buyer wishing to continue the existing concept Five minutes to Johnson City Country Club.
