Mountain Retreat on 40+ Acres - 5963 New River Highway, Briceville, TN
Adventure, seclusion, and serenity collide at 5963 New River Highway—a fully updated mountainside cottage tucked along the banks of the Ligias River in beautiful Briceville, TN. Just minutes off I-75, this one-of-a-kind retreat places you perfectly between Windrock and Brimstone, offering endless opportunities for riding, hiking, hunting, and escaping the grind.
This home was taken to the studs and brought back to life with today's comfort in mind: new wiring, mini-split HVAC system, hardy board siding, updated electrical, public water, newer septic, and 250GB fiber optic internet for staying connected when needed.
Set on over 40 acres of private wilderness, the property backs up to the pristine, mountain-fed Ligias River, which transforms throughout the year from a peaceful stream to a gently flowing river—your own natural soundtrack. Relax on the porch with your favorite drink, soak in the sounds of the water, or step out back and hike your own terrain in search of deer and wild game.
Inside, the open-concept living space features a cozy fireplace, a hideaway Murphy bed, loft space for sleeping or storage, and a full-size kitchen perfect for prepping campfire meals or holiday feasts. The bathroom features a custom-tiled walk-in shower, stylish vanity, and hookups for a washer and dryer—everything you need, right at your fingertips.
If you're ready to disconnect from the world and reconnect with nature, this fully renovated mountain retreat is ready for you. Come explore 5963 New River Highway—where your next memory begins.
