Property Description
Affordably priced, ''true log homes'' like this charming, rustic example are a rare find in East Tennessee's highly desirable Mountain City real estate market. With beautifully refinished wide-plank pine floors on the main level, rough-sawn exposed roof beams and tongue-and-groove pine ceiling and wall boards, this well maintained home has been lovingly cared for through the years, and it shows! The warm and inviting great room with its vaulted ceilings features a beautiful classic log-home style, stone fireplace. On its hearth sits a beautiful black, free-standing cast-iron gas stove. It adds both ambiance and provides a much-welcomed heat source during winter power outages, fueled by an included 120-pound propane tank. The upstairs loft provides spacious sleeping quarters for guests, a quiet cozy space to read a book, or an ideal home office overlooking the intimate great room below. Extensive updates to the home over the years include: metal roofing installed less than eight years ago; a new heat pump system installed less than two years ago; front porch decking replaced two years ago; new guttering four years ago; some new PEX plumbing three years ago; the downstairs bathroom completely gutted and modernized three years ago; a hot tub added less than three years ago; four solar-powered security cameras installed around the home's perimeter; replacement of both front and rear exterior doors and storm doors three years ago; a new stove less than a year ago; and a dishwasher three years ago. Downstairs, you'll appreciate having a large den for family gatherings, a bonus room currently serving as an extra bedroom, a canning room, a laundry room, and plenty of additional storage space in yet another room. With two 20' X 24' carports, you'll have plenty of space to park your cars, trucks, boats, lawn equipment and other toys. Out back, you'll find a 16' X 24' detached garage building, only about a year old, outfitted with a 200-amp electrical panel, lighting, shelving, and a heat pump for year-round comfort. Additionally, there is a separate 10' X 20' workshop complete with electricity, lighting, shelving and workbenches for those who enjoy woodworking projects, crafting or other hobbies. Situated on over an acre of ground in a quiet and peaceful setting, teeming with wildlife, this home would make a great permanent residence, a family getaway retreat, or an income-producing Airbnb property. Whether you're taking in the relaxing sounds of nature with your morning coffee on the full-length covered front porch, or enjoying a nice long, soothing soak in the oversized hot-tub under the covered back porch with your favorite evening beverage while watching the sunset, you're sure to appreciate the home's abundance of outdoor living spaces. When you venture out from your sanctuary away from it all for a trip into town for groceries, a meal out, or a doctor's appointment, you'll be pleased to know that you'll only be a short ten-minute drive from either downtown Mountain City, TN (to your south) or downtown Damascus, VA (to your north). Speaking of which, you can enjoy the tax benefits of being in Tennessee where there is no state income tax, yet be close enough to Virginia to reap the savings of lower tax rates on groceries and retail purchases found there. Schedule your very own private showing of this bargain-priced mountain retreat today, before it gets away! *Some information gathered from third-party sources.
