Property Description
Rarely does a tract of this size, quality, and location come to market. The Brayton Mountain Tract encompasses 562.67± acres atop Tennessee's Cumberland Plateau, offering a unique combination of mountain seclusion, breathtaking views, recreational opportunities, and future development potential--all within approximately 42 minutes of downtown Chattanooga.
Fronting paved Brayton Mountain Road, the property features electric power, public water, and high-speed fiber internet available at the road, providing an exceptional foundation for private ownership, recreational use, or future development. Elevations range from approximately 880 feet to over 1,720 feet along the Walden Ridge escarpment, creating numerous opportunities for long-range mountain views and premium homesites.
The land is characterized by a diverse mix of mature hardwoods, planted pine stands, flowing creeks, and an established network of interior roads and trails. Flora Branch and McGill Creek provide year-round water features while supporting abundant wildlife habitat for deer, turkey, and other native species.
One of the property's most remarkable attributes is its direct adjacency to Cumberland Trail State Park and extensive state-managed conservation lands. Future owners will enjoy immediate access to thousands of acres of permanently protected open space, hiking trails, and outdoor recreation, ensuring privacy and preserving the natural character of the surrounding landscape for generations to come.
Located just minutes from Soddy-Daisy and Dayton, yet offering the privacy and scale typically found much farther from metropolitan areas, the Brayton Mountain Tract presents an exceptional opportunity for a private estate, recreational retreat, timber investment, conservation holding, or a thoughtfully designed community of large-acreage mountain view homesites.
