While this property has significant road frontage on Highway 72, you can also access this land via a beautiful common-use drive. Upon entering this road, you will be greeted by an idyllic tree-lined drive flanked by well-maintained horse fencing and magnificent views of the surrounding properties.

To search for the heart and soul of any equestrian property, a good place to start is the barn. The 20-stall indoor barn on this property was thoughtfully designed and constructed with high-quality materialsand with style and longevity in mind. Cinderblock construction, metal stall doors, and a perfect and practical layout are just a few details that make this barn a standout. Additionally, the main breezeway is covered in non-slip rubber pavers, increasing comfort and safety for all hooves and feet entering the barn. Other convenient features include four entrances, a wash rack, and built-in sleeping quarters with a shower stall.

Adjacent to the barn you will find a Kraft Horse Walker that can accommodate up to six horses and allows you to change speed and direction easily. The horse walker also features a spacious round pen for additional training. The location of this walker allows for ease while moving horses in and out of the barn. A shed-row horse barn with 9 stalls also has an enclosed tack room and additional covered space for equipment storage.

TRACTS 1-3: THE LAND

The fields have been impeccably maintained for cutting hay, including the four individual paddocks enclosed with Centaur Fencing. The paddocks are separated with an alleyway making it safer and easier to move horses in and out of their respective fields. Each paddock has water connections and separate covered shelters for horses to utilize as a respite from the elements. Just south of the main barn is a 1-mile racetrack, which is in great condition.

The western and southern boundary of the property is flanked by over a mile of scenic frontage along Bluewater Creek. Much of the creek access is a fly fishermans dream, and perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding or just sitting along the banks enjoying a day on the water with your family and friends. Bluewater Creek is a tributary that flows into Wilson Lake on the Tennessee River. Wilson Lake is known for outstanding bass fishing opportunities and recreational use. Deeper water access is located on the SE corner of the property and may offer a good location for a dock or boat ramp if approved by proper permitting entities.

With the core elements of a diverse-use and high-end horse property already in place, all that may be missing on this land is that beautiful custom home youve been dreaming of.
