Welcome to 540 Upper Paw Paw Rd, a custom-built mountain retreat on 17.28 private acres with stunning views, solar panels feeding the grid, and a small pond. Privately set at the top of an winding gravel driveway, this hidden gem includes a two-car basement garage with a guest/in-law suite above, connected to the main house by a covered breezeway. The main level offers a primary suite and a second bedroom with a shared bath and walk-through closet. Upstairs features an open-concept living room, dining, and kitchen with a wood stove, full bath, and a large back deck overlooking the mountains. The solar system is already in place for energy efficiency, with potential for off-grid living. The rolling hills provide space for livestock, gardening, or recreation, while the tranquil setting offers privacy and freedom. With property taxes under $3,000/year, this is the perfect setup for homesteading, second-home escapes, or year-round living. High country retreats like this are hard to find!

Summary
Location and General Information
  • Longitude: -82.754417
  • Latitude: 35.778417
  • Directions: From Hwy 25/70 in Marshall, turn onto Upper Paw Paw Rd. Continue for approximately 2.5 miles. The road will wind and gradually narrow as you climb in elevation—stay on Upper Paw Paw Rd the entire way. Look for a gravel driveway on the left marked with the address 540 Upper Paw Paw Rd (there may be no visible sign, so GPS is helpful). Turn left onto the gravel drive and follow it all the way to the top—it’s long and winding, but leads directly to the home. Please use caution on the gravel road, especially in wet weather or if driving a low-clearance vehicle. Home is not visible from the main road and is privately situated at the top of the mountain.
