Approximately 5.01 wooded acres at 144 Charlie Jones Road in Deer Lodge, Morgan County, Tennessee, with a 30x40 structure already under construction, water and electricity installed and an approved two-bedroom septic system. The land has rolling terrain, a partially cleared homesite and a small creek winding through the property. Much of the groundwork is done, so the next owner starts with a real head start instead of bare ground. The 30x40 structure is not finished, which leaves room to shape it. The lower level is designed as a garage with 10-foot ceilings and oversized 12-foot-wide doors, enough for vehicles, boats, side-by-sides or a workshop. The upper level is framed for an owner's suite with a walk-in closet and bath, plus an open living room, dining area and kitchen. Layout and finishes can still be set by the buyer. Anyone who wants to build in stages can bring an RV or camper and use the existing temporary power service while the work goes on. The Obed Wild and Scenic River and thousands of acres of public land are nearby for hiking, camping, kayaking, rafting, hunting and trail riding. Oak Ridge, Crossville and Knoxville are all within reach of this Morgan County retreat. Buyer to verify utilities, septic, permits, restrictions and boundaries.
