Multiple perennial clover fields, warm and cool season food plots, and rotational annuals

The property offers consistent hunting success, with several mature bucks harvested in recent years. Turkey, dove, squirrel, rabbit, and coyote populations are strong, and the property's layout supports archery, rifle, and muzzleloader hunters across all Tennessee seasons.

Cabin and Outbuildings

One bedroom, one bathroom with walk-in shower, a large vaulted great room with kitchen, and a utility room

Covered front porch with finished columns and rails, handicap-accessible sidewalk

Ductless heat pump, tankless Rinnai water heater, and underground power

Custom tongue-and-groove wood interior with materials on-site for final installation

The dishwasher, range, plumbing fixtures, electrical system, and HVAC have already been purchased and included

The cabin is framed, roofed, and dried in, with active finishing being done by the owner. Many custom details and upgrades are already complete or planned, and materials for interior finish-out have been paid for and are on site.

A 30-by-50-foot wood barn with a loft provides ample room for all equipment, tools, and storage. It currently holds a tractor, UTVs, ATVs, sprayers, and building materials. Several fruit trees, including apple, cherry, peach, and pear, are established near the cabin site.

Water and Utilities

The property lives up to its name with four springs and extensive water resources, including:

Buck Hollow Creek, a spring-fed stream flowing year-round through the interior of the property

Two ponds, one of which could be developed into a trophy bluegill lake

Public water service extended to both the cabin and barn

Hand-dug well for additional utility use

High-speed fiber optic internet, underground power, and reliable cellular service

Kubota MX4700 tractor (265 hours), 6' chisel plow, disk, cultipacker, lime buggy

Honda Pioneer 700 UTV, Honda Rancher ATV (purchased April 2025)

Access, Use Potential, and Expansion

A recorded, ironclad easement provides both legal and physical access with strong privacy protection. The property qualifies for Greenbelt tax benefits (2024 taxes were $411 per year), and all mineral, timber, and natural resource rights are conveyed. The best building site on the property has been intentionally preserved for a primary residence or future homesite. Multiple home options for family or guests can be added without affecting Greenbelt eligibility.

With the potential to acquire additional acreage, buyers can nearly double the property's size without doubling the cost. This presents a unique opportunity to expand their investment footprint in this highly desirable location, promising long-term value and potential growth.

Whether you're in the market for a top-tier deer hunting retreat, an organic farm-to-table orchard operation, or a tranquil, private homestead with all the necessary infrastructure, Four Springs Farm is the perfect fit. This property offers a unique opportunity to own a fully developed, highly improved recreational and agricultural property in the heart of Tennessee's most sought-after region.
