About this property

Imagine waking each morning to the sound of birdsong, sipping coffee as the mountain mist rises through the laurels, and ending your evenings beside a crackling fire under a sky filled with stars. This is more than a home--it's a place to reconnect with nature, slow down, and enjoy the lifestyle you've been dreaming about. Nestled in the heart of the Cherokee National Forest, this private mountain retreat offers the rare opportunity to live where adventure begins the moment you step outside. Spend your days hiking endless forest trails, riding ATV's to town on Forest Service roads, exploring nearby waterfalls, riding the famous Cherohala Skyway, fishing crystal-clear mountain streams, or simply relaxing on the porch while the seasons paint the landscape in ever-changing colors. Whether you're searching for a full-time mountain residence, a weekend escape from city life, or an investment in one of East Tennessee's most scenic destinations, this property delivers an authentic mountain lifestyle that few places can match. The custom log home has been thoughtfully designed to complement its surroundings, with warm wood finishes, inviting gathering spaces, a high end kitchen featuring custom cabinets and leathered granite countertops, and windows that bring the beauty of the outdoors inside. Three private bedroom suites spread across multiple levels creating the perfect balance of togetherness and personal retreat, making it equally suited for family gatherings, entertaining guests, or peaceful solitude. Modern conveniences--including high-speed fiber internet, dependable backup power, and numerous recent improvements--allow you to enjoy the serenity of mountain living without sacrificing comfort. Located just minutes from the charming town of Tellico Plains and within easy reach of Murphy, North Carolina, and Blue Ridge, Georgia, you'll have access to local restaurants, outdoor recreation, and small-town hospitality while enjoying the privacy and tranquility that only a mountain setting can provide. The Cherokee National Forest begins quite literally through the back yard, offering access to 656,000 acres of pristine recreation. Some properties offer a house. Others offer a way of life. This is your chance to own both. Neighborhood is private and secure. HOA dues ($200/year) are for private road maintenance. Lot is wooded, open and useable. Other remarks: The current owners completed the buildout in the basement, so the basement is ''new.'' The basement floors are planked vinyl. The entire home has a high efficiency heat pump for cooling.
