Description

Welcome to your private East Tennessee retreat! Nestled on 10 mostly wooded acres, this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath country cottage offers the perfect combination of peaceful seclusion, natural beauty, and comfortable living. Whether you're a nature lover, aspiring homesteader, or simply looking for a quieter pace of life, this property offers plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors and make it your own.

A large, welcoming front porch sets the stage for relaxing mornings with your coffee or entertaining family and friends. Inside, the open-concept living room and kitchen create a warm and inviting gathering space. Down the hallway are a spacious guest bedroom, full bathroom, and large laundry room. The impressive primary suite, added in 2015, features beautiful wood flooring and a tray ceiling, creating a comfortable private retreat. The adjoining primary bathroom provides an opportunity to add your own personal style and finishing touches.

Outside, the possibilities are endless. The spacious side yard is ideal for a garden, while a level, fenced area across the creek provides space for livestock or other homesteading pursuits. Custom trails wind through the property and lead to a custom fire pit--an inviting spot to gather around the fire, watch for local wildlife, or enjoy the peaceful beauty of a star-filled East Tennessee night.

Recent updates and features include a new septic system installed in 2015, septic pumped in December 2024, updated flooring in the living room and kitchen, the addition of the primary suite and bathroom in 2015, and fresh whole-house interior paint completed in 2026. If you're looking for privacy, usable acreage, and the opportunity to embrace the country lifestyle, this East Tennessee property is ready to welcome you home.
