Beautiful 241 Acre Farm
IN BLAINE, JUST NORTH OF KNOXVILLE
(Parke and Thelma Collins Estate)

34 TRACTS 1 TO 15 ACRES EACH
(GOOD RESTRICTIONS TO PROTECT BEAUTY AND FUTURE VALUE OF PROPERTY)

OPEN HOUSE:  Friday, May 2nd, 4 P.M. til dark and Saturday before sale.

Absolutely one of the most beautiful farms in Tennessee. In the Collins Family for over half a century, this outstanding farm was chosen by the University of Tennessee as a Demonstration Farm. Farmers and Ag students from around the world have toured this rich, fertile land over the past several decades. Approximately 90% of this gorgeous farm is lush, green pastureland. The balance has areas of large, mature hardwood forest. The land lays very well and most is only gently sloping.

GENTLEMAN FARMS: Most of the 34 tracts are over 5 acres in size, with several 10 acres or more. Many tracts have small areas of cozy hardwood trees for shade and all have picturesque building sites with breathtaking views.

• Tract #1 has a large barn and older two-story farm house which needs repairs.
• Tract #25 has a nice older barn.
• Tract #26 has a small, older one-level home with barn and outbuildings.
• Tract #31 has an older one-level home, 2 barns and a small shed.
• Tract #30 has a barn, silo and a small shed.
• Four small tracts are completely wooded.

Choose one tract or as many as you desire to create the size farm you have always dreamed of.

GREAT LOCATION: Nice community only a few minutes' drive from Knoxville on four-lane Highway 11-W (Rutledge Pike) to Blaine, then only 3 miles to the farm. The very attractive River Ranch Development, with its upscale homes and stables, is within sight of the Collins farm. Less than 1 mile East of the farm is a TWRA boat ramp/access area to the beautiful Holston River, a popular fishing spot.
