Property Description
In the wild of the Jefferson National Forest and the High Knob Recreation Area is a tiny village of weekend and recreational dwellings. This cabin is built of block on a concrete slab, offers acreage for future needs, and off-the-grid modern amenities including a metal roof. Off-grid living is made easier with solar powered lighting, and propane fuels the wall heater, an on-demand water heater, gas cookstove and wood burning stove. Electric wiring delivers electricity to outlets for low demand electrical appliances and electronics with electricity sourced from a gasoline generator and/or solar panels. Filtered rainwater collection tanks provide water for the structure. An outdoor shipping container offers secure storage and houses the generator with solar panels on the top. Approximately 32 acres are available, this tract offers a horse coral and cleared area with septic tanks allowing future development. Cellular signals from Verizon and AT&T networks are available as well as Starlink.
With elevations reaching over 4,200 feet, multiple outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, horseback trail riding, hunting, fishing, canoeing/kayaking and rock climbing are available in the area. The property's proximity to popular attractions including Devil's Bathtub waterfall and water pool (about 7 miles), High Knob Lake, High Knob Observation Tower, and Flag Rock Recreation Area provide a great location for outdoor enthusiasts.
Just about 7 miles from the City of Norton and approximately 13 miles from the University of Virginia - Wise, this off grid experience is ironically close to restaurants, shopping, hospitals, and higher educational facilities. It is approximately 1.5 hours (approximately 46 miles) from the Bristol Motor Speedway.
