Land with Home for Sale in Sparta, Tennessee
4125 Indian Mound Rd, Sparta, TN 38587
Approximately 27 acres of rare, private land offering refined off-grid living without sacrificing comfort. At the heart of the property sits a thoughtfully designed ~1,000 sq ft cabin, custom built by Craftsman Builders of Nashville, blending quality craftsmanship with intentional design. The home is powered by a 4.7 kW solar system featuring 16 lithium iron batteries and 12 bi-facial panels, with generator backup for seamless reliability. Water is sourced from a private natural spring and treated through a double filtration system, providing clean, dependable water year-round.
Set far back off the road for complete privacy, the cabin features oversized 2x6 walls with extra insulation, PEX plumbing, low-VOC paint, 4-inch solid white oak flooring, a wall of custom south-facing windows, Hardie siding, a metal roof, and a Hearthstone Green Mountain 60 wood stove.
The land itself is exceptional. Two creeks wind through the property alongside two waterfalls, including a dramatic waterfall exceeding 40 feet that forms the headwaters of Stillhouse Branch, flowing into Center Hill Lake. Mature hardwoods create a secluded, peaceful setting rich with natural beauty.
Sustainability is already in place with a 1,200 sq ft fenced organic garden featuring raised cedar beds, along with established fruit trees and bushes. The acreage offers abundant opportunities to forage wild edibles, including chanterelle mushrooms, muscadines, pawpaw fruit, and persimmons.
Unrestricted land with low property taxes under greenbelt (forestry exemption). Ideal as a private retreat, full-time homestead, or legacy property for those seeking independence, water, and total seclusion.
