Private Smoky Mountain Retreat on 50+ Acres with Income Potential

Experience the rare opportunity to own a 50.54-acre mountain estate in Cosby, one of East Tennessee’s most sought-after locations near the Great Smoky Mountains. This expansive property delivers an exceptional combination of privacy, scenic mountain views, income potential, and long-term real estate value, making it ideal for investors, vacation-rental operators, or buyers seeking a premium rural homestead.
At the heart of the land is a spring-fed private pond, adding both visual appeal and functional value—perfect for recreation, relaxation, or enhancing short-term rental appeal. The acreage features a balanced mix of open pasture, mature woodland, and gently rolling terrain, offering flexibility for future development, agricultural use, or conservation.
The estate includes multiple residential structures, significantly increasing its investment upside. Alongside the primary residence, two additional homes—previously operating as successful short-term vacation rentals—offer immediate or near-term income opportunities. With light updates, these cabins can be repositioned for platforms such as Airbnb or Vrbo, or retained as multi-family living spaces.
Additional improvements include a detached workshop suitable for equipment storage, automotive projects, or business use, as well as a separate storage building for tools and seasonal items. A traditional pole barn enhances the property’s versatility and may be adapted for livestock, events, or creative redevelopment.
Despite its secluded mountain setting, the property enjoys convenient access to major tourism and lifestyle hubs including Gatlinburg, Sevierville, and Pigeon Forge, all known for strong vacation-rental demand, dining, shopping, and entertainment. The park itself offers year-round outdoor recreation, while Asheville—a thriving arts and culinary destination—is approximately one hour away.
This East Tennessee mountain property represents a high-value land investment with multiple exit strategies: private estate, family compound, eco-retreat, or income-producing rental portfolio. Large acreage properties with water features and existing structures are increasingly scarce in this region, enhancing long-term appreciation potential.
