Description
Here is a rare opportunity to own a large-acreage tract within the gates of Fredonia Mountain Nature Resort (FMNR). FMNR is a 3,500 acre gated-community atop the Cumberland Plateau designed with features intended to connect people with nature such as hiking/biking trails, parks, lakes, ponds and a community lodge. This 104.27 acre tract has been specifically set aside by the current owner from development and declared as ''conserved land'' to retain its considerable natural and scenic values but with substantial retained rights for its perpetual use. The tract has therefore been exempted from the FMNR home owners' association (''HOA'').

Certain provisions of the CE do, however, allow for the installation of improvements such as roads, residences, outbuildings and ancillary improvements. Other notable allowances include: Hunting, Wildlife Management, Leasing, Agriculture, Forestry and Forestry Management, Public Access. Views extend from the nearly one-mile brow at approx 1650 ft elevation into the Sequatchie Valley below. Woodland habitats flourish under the deciduous Oak / Hickory Forest canopy. The Stillhouse Creek hollow has tumbling water falls, glistening pools and moss-covered stones and native species such as rhododendron, hemlock, mountain laurel and native azalea. Springtime wildflowers abound with may apple, trillium and lady slippers. Wildlife common to the area is found here including deer, turkey, opossum, raccoon, bob cat and many varieties of local and migrating birds. The point of access to the tract is from Bluff View Drive, near FMNR Landmark Mothers Bridge. The designated 1 acre home site is in a fixed location along the brow (with valley views into the Sequatchie Valley) near Bluff View Drive for convenience of construction and installation of utilities.
