A Buyer's Dream Wrapped in Total Seclusion on ~26 Smoky Mountain Acres. One of Sevier County's most storied estates, this private ~26 acre retreat spread out over multiple tracts and tucked inside the gated Shagbark community in Sevierville. This is far more than a cabin; it's a sprawling legacy property with a fully renovated 5 bedroom, 4 bath guest house known as The Manor, a 5 car detached garage, private lakes, a tennis and pickleball court, a frisbee golf course, stocked ponds, a paddle boat, and acres of manicured lawns wrapped in forest. The estate sits just minutes from downtown Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, downtown Sevierville, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Manor is a 5 bedroom, 4 bath brick residence plus an additional basement bedroom, bath, kitchen, and living area, giving it the footprint to be used as either a primary residence or a high end short term rental. Inside you'll find a home cinema area, gaming area, open living and dining spaces, a full kitchen, and two sets of washers and dryers built for hosting large groups. Recent updates include a new roof, new kitchen, new windows, new hot tub, new well pump, new frisbee golf course, and refreshed landscape lighting. Within the last four years the owners also completed new flooring throughout most of the home, renovated three bathrooms, and replaced a deck. The property currently holds a short term rental permit to sleep 36 guests and is already producing income, with $61,982 in confirmed 2026 bookings. The grounds tell their own story. The estate features stone bordered ponds, extensive brick patios and paths, magnolia grandiflora and other flowering trees, and a private waterfall. This is the legendary site where ''The Castle,'' a 15,000 square foot architectural feat built over a cascading waterfall, once stood. The Castle was lost in the 2022 Hatcher Mountain wildfire, but the brick built Manor and garage survived. The waterfall site remains, ready for a visionary owner to rebuild a signature residence or a grand rental. Use The Manor as a private family compound, continue operating it as a short term rental, rebuild on the waterfall site, or develop additional STR cabins across the remaining lots. Buyers have also explored converting the 5 car garage into a golf simulator and bowling space, adding a forest minigolf course through the woods, or building a rooftop lazy river and pool above the garage. Notable features include approximately 26 acres an active STR permit for 36 guests with bookings already on the calendar, a 5 car detached garage, a private tennis and pickleball court, private lakes stocked with fish, a paddle boat, stone bordered ponds, a waterfall, a frisbee golf course, extensive paths, brick patios, and mature landscaping. Recent improvements include a new roof, kitchen, windows, hot tub, well pump, and landscape lighting. Construction is primarily brick. Utilities include private well and septic, local electric service, and AT&T fiber internet. The gated Shagbark community offers a community center and guest entry systems, and zoning is short term rental friendly. Properties like this don't come to market often, especially with this combination of acreage, infrastructure, completed renovations, an active rental permit, and a rebuild site with this kind of history.
