Other than "no further subdivision," this land is completely unrestricted and located in an area with no zoning ordinanaces. Survey and legal description included in the sales price. Shown by appointment only as this land is under a hunting lease. Hatfield Creek Rd runs from Whistle Creek Rd south then becomes a private gravel road looping back north to the top of the property (access at both the bottom and top of the property). Fantastic hunting for whitetail deer, turkey, and wild boar; the buck in the photo was harvested in fall of 2023 nearby and with age bucks score 130-150+ in Elk Valley. Great homestead or family retreat property. This site can serve as a recreational property, farm, permanent residence, or weekend retreat for your family. Please contact me to set an appointment prior to visiting the property as the land is posted and TOUR AT YOUR OWN RISK-dress for a hike with boots and jeans. By entering the property you agree to be responsible for your actions and choices and use due caution on the land. More land available from 1 acre to over 1,000 acres not yet listed for sale so please contact me if you're looking for something other than what you see on this page.
The land has sites for homes, cabins, hunting, or camping. Convenient to Indian Mound State Park, Big South Fork National Recreation Area, Lake Norris, and ATV riding on TWRA Royal Blue, Windrock, or Brimstone. You can drive your 4-wheeler, dirt bike, SxS, or quad without a TWRA permit on many miles of old unimproved county roads leaving this site directly on your machine with no need to "trailer and tow" through the mountains at the Campbell-Scott county line and into Southern Kentucky. Build your dream home or cabin here to enjoy woodland views, gorgeous fall foliage, and cooler evenings in the summer. Note: Hatfield Creek Rd is a county road and cannot be gated or blocked. If you have time, drop in on E's market for lunch (.2 mi north of the Hwy 297/Whistle Creek Rd intersection going north toward Jellico). Recommend you download "OnX Hunt" on your phone and select "Tennessee" prior to your visit. The app is 35 dollars per year and will allow you to navigate property, view boundaries, access topographic relief maps, view terrain "3D" perspectives, and includes a PC desktop/laptop version with the annual subscription. Once you download the app, I can text you a web link with the boundaries for this farm when you schedule your visit. No offers considered without proof of funds to close or evidence of preapproval of your financing (explore Farm Credit Services of Mid-America for financing if you're not already preapproved by your bank).

Stay on Whistle Creek Rd until you bear left and merge with Lamb Mountain Rd/Hatfield Rd bearing left a second time as the road turns due south (when you turn onto Whistle Creek Rd you'll bear left twice on county roads to enter the north property boundary-note all other gravel roads are private drives off Whistle Creek Rd and are gated). When you pass a 2-acre field on your right with railroad ties for posts and hog wire you're getting close to this property.
