Property Description
A Historic Treasure in Mountain City, TN... Nestled in the heart of Northeast Tennessee's scenic mountains, this well-preserved historic residence is a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Mountain City's past. Known by many of the senior locals as The Butler House, the property stands as a graceful reminder of the town's rich history while offering carefully chosen updates that make it comfortable for modern living. Homes of this caliber seldom become available in Mountain City's cherished historic district. From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the attention to detail that blends yesterday's craftsmanship with today's conveniences. The exterior has been thoughtfully updated with new windows, siding, gutters, and a durable metal roof—all designed to maintain a low-maintenance lifestyle while enhancing curb appeal. The striking white-and-black palette creates a bold, modern contrast that still respects the character of the neighborhood. Inside, the home invites you to step back in time with original hardwood floors, four fireplaces, tall ceilings, and a stately staircase that sets the tone for the home's timeless design. The spacious floor plan offers a rare sense of openness for a historic property, giving you plenty of room to create spaces for living, entertaining, and gathering. While the home celebrates its historic charm, it also features thoughtful updates such as a newly refreshed kitchen with modern appliances and cabinetry—perfect for today's lifestyle. Set on approximately one-third acre, the property offers a level lot that provides both privacy and charm. Mature landscaping frames the outdoor spaces, which include an older gazebo that provides character and charm, a stone patio with an outdoor fireplace for evening gatherings, and dual access from both Church Street and Butler Lane. Whether hosting friends, enjoying morning coffee in the back lawn, or simply soaking in the small-town quiet, the property is designed to be a personal retreat. The location places you in the heart of Mountain City's historic district, within a short distance of local shops, dining, and community events. And yet, you are only a short drive from some of the region's most beloved destinations—Boone, NC, the VA Creeper and Appalachian Trails, Damascus, VA, the Barter and Heritage Hall Theaters, and Lake Watauga. The Tri-Cities region is at your fingertips, offering endless opportunities for recreation, culture, and adventure. 216 N. Church Street is more than just a home—it is a chance to write the next chapter in the story of one of Mountain City's most treasured residences. Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of history while enjoying the comforts of modern living. Information is sourced from county and seller records. Buyers and buyer's agents are encouraged to verify all details.
