Property Description

Sprawled over a sunny five-acre parcel in peaceful Greene County, this 3,200-square-foot structure was built to high-end custom home standards and is currently used as a private art studio and office. While the building's shape is straightforward, with the bones of a modern farmhouse, its scale, quality, and flexibility are anything but ordinary. With full insulation, climate control, polished concrete floors, and utilities already in place, the space is move-in ready for creative, residential, or business use. The interior is a clean slate, with 12-foot ceilings, open-span construction, and no load-bearing interior walls. Sunlight and pastoral views enter through giant east and west facing windows. Polished concrete floors and durable materials throughout make the space ideal for a wide range of live/work configurations. This barndominium start is the perfect candidate for residential or live-work conversion, easily accommodating four or more bedrooms. The hard work is already done with site work, framing, siding and all mechanicals installed to code and inspected by the city. A finished full bath, laundry, high-efficiency HVAC system, and two wood burning stoves are already in place. There is broadband internet, 400 amps of power, and city water. Bring your appliances and furniture and finish the interior yourself, saving money and time. Or hire a handyman crew to complete your kitchen and interior without the delays or high costs that often come with hiring a general contractor. In East Tennessee, where builders are booked months—sometimes years—in advance, this project-ready structure gives you a rare advantage. You can move at your own pace, customize the layout to your needs, and invest your budget where it matters most. Whether you're dreaming of a minimalist retreat, multi-bedroom family home, or a creative studio with living quarters, the flexibility and groundwork are already in place to make it happen. Beyond the idea of a private residence, this structure and unrestricted land use invites big entrepreneurial vision. Surrounded by flat organic pasture and forested hills, the property is well suited to ventures such as agritourism, glamping, farm-to-table dinners, or a nature-based retreat center. Other potential uses include horse training, yoga center, arts studio, or nature-based homeschool programs. Adjacent forest and trails could support day camps or forest-floor classrooms. The land itself is chemical-free and rich, ready for permaculture gardens, small livestock, or heirloom orchards. Two additional 20x30 metal outbuildings are included, providing storage, stables, or extra workshop space. The location combines natural seclusion with true accessibility. While the setting feels remote, the property is only 25 miles from downtown Greeneville, a historic East Tennessee town with restaurants, healthcare, local arts, and all the shopping conveniences. Asheville and Knoxville, both just over an hour away, offer airports, cultural events, and sporting events. You're within just a few miles of the Appalachian Trail, Paint Creek's Rainbow trout-stocked waters, and the scenic French Broad River. The Biltmore Estate and Great Smoky Mountains National Park are nearby. And best of all, just past your property line, lies the Cherokee National Forest and its miles of hiking and trail riding. This house and land package is competitively priced at $150/sf for the building and $100K for the acreage. This is an excellent opportunity to jump start your custom build in an extraordinary setting. Whether you're an entrepreneur looking to scale a rural business, a maker in search of creative space, or a buyer getting a head-start on a custom residence, this property delivers on all counts.
