Property description

Discover an exceptional opportunity to create your dream equestrian retreat just minutes from the Lower Ocoee River. Situated on 5.86 acres of gently sloping land, this property offers a picturesque setting with ample space for pasture, training, and boarding. At the top of the property, an 80-year-old wooden barn stands as a striking focal point—once an 8-stall horse barn, its structure and character remain ideal for restoration or adaptive reuse.

Whether you’re envisioning a private horse farm, a small riding school, or simply want a peaceful home base for trail access into Cherokee National Forest, the infrastructure here offers a strong foundation. With utility buildings, multiple outbuildings, and a livable 3-bedroom home on-site, you can comfortably transition into the property while you plan and build out your vision.

Enjoy country living with the freedom and flexibility to create your own equestrian lifestyle, all just a short drive from Cleveland and under an hour to Chattanooga. This one is truly a rare find for horse lovers seeking land, character, and convenience.


Details

Home Features

  • The property includes a charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offering 1,835 square feet of comfortable living space. Designed for simplicity and functionality, the home is move-in ready with ample potential for updates and customization. Inside, you'll find a spacious layout, a cozy living area, and a large kitchen perfect for everyday meals or hosting after a day outdoors. A 320-square-foot screened porch off the back provides a peaceful spot to unwind and enjoy views of the surrounding acreage. Just beyond, a permanent stone barbecue and a unique utility shed (originally built by Cherokee National Forest rangers) add rustic character. The home is on a separate septic system from the retail space and has its own utility meter, offering flexibility for residential or business use. An ideal setup for someone wanting to live on-site while caring for horses or managing a small agricultural operation.

Lot Features

  • This 5.86-acre lot offers a rare combination of usability, natural beauty, and functional infrastructure. The land is mostly cleared with gentle slopes, making it ideal for pasture, paddocks, gardening, or expanding existing structures. A looped gravel driveway provides easy access for large vehicles, trailers, or farm equipment without the need for backing in or out. At the top of the property, you'll find an 80-year-old wood barn with rich character and history, once an 8-stall horse barn, perfect for restoration or repurposing. Additional features include a large metal barn with a concrete slab and high doors for storing equipment or vehicles, two tucked-away guide cabins, a gravel-floor pavilion, and multiple utility sheds. The lot also boasts a serene wooded backdrop, mature shade trees, and wide-open sky views, making it a peaceful and practical setting for everything from outdoor recreation to a working homestead.

Horse Facility Features

  • For horse enthusiasts, this property offers an excellent foundation for creating a functional and scenic equestrian setup. The 80-year-old wood barn, formerly used as an 8-stall horse barn, sits at the highest point of the property and provides a picturesque and historically rich centerpiece ready for restoration. The open acreage allows for the addition of fencing, paddocks, and a riding arena, while the gently sloping terrain ensures good drainage and usable pasture space. The looped driveway offers easy in-and-out access for horse trailers, and there’s ample room to add run-ins, tack storage, or additional outbuildings as needed. With proximity to trails and outdoor adventure in the Cherokee National Forest just minutes away, it’s an ideal location for trail riders or those seeking to blend homestead living with equestrian recreation.
