Each parcel at least five acres. All set among native oaks, at the edge of a potential 36-acre conservation area.
The Oaks at Sewanee occupies a long, rolling ridge on Tennessee's Cumberland Plateau — a place where hardwood forests have stood largely undisturbed for generations, and where the slow, original rhythm of the land remains intact.
The master plan carves the property into just seventeen homesites. The smallest is exactly five acres; the largest runs to 5.37. This is intentional. Density was never the objective — space, privacy, and an undisturbed tree canopy were.
Mature oaks define the ridgeline, joined by hickories, maples, tulip poplar and flowering understory. Building envelopes are placed to preserve the most significant trees, and each owner is encouraged to site their home in conversation with the land.
Directly adjoining the property is a 36.21-acre potential private conservation area owned by others — effectively extending the green buffer around the subdivision and protecting viewsheds and wildlife corridors for generations to come.
The plateau's elevation brings measurably cooler summers, a longer autumn, and skies largely untouched by urban light. On clear nights, the Milky Way is plainly visible from your own driveway.
