The University of the South announces that eight vacant leasehold lots located near campus and in the Sewanee community are now available to be leased by residential builders for new home construction. Residents wishing to construct new homes also have access to this inventory.

This marks the first time in many years that lots have been made available in this manner, and the University looks forward to collaborating with interested builders and individuals seeking to create additional housing on the Domain.

These eight lots are designated for a primary residence and must be transferred/sold as a primary residence. The University defines a “primary residence” as a dwelling where one actually lives at least nine months of the calendar year and is the address shown on one’s driver’s license.

Leaseholds are located as follows:

1. Stephens Drive (lease #1072)

2. Stephens Drive (lease #1073)

3. Parsons Green, Lot 11

4. Parsons Green, Lot 12

5. Parsons Green, Lot 13

6. Georgia Avenue, Lot 3 (lease #1064)

7. Alabama Avenue, Lot 6 (lease #1069)

8. Alabama Avenue, Lot 7 (lease #1070)
