Property Description
In 2025, the residence was professionally appraised at $1,500,000. It is currently listed at $100,000 below that appraised value. Hearthstone Homes, an award-winning builder of heavy timber homes since 1971, built this residence. Though it is listed at 5,489 square feet, it offers 6,859 square feet under roof-excluding the garage, carport, and covered porches. The 2-car garage and separate 3-car customized carport provide shelter for 5 vehicles. Located on 5 acres of farmland, this residence offers stunning Great Smoky Mountains views and convenient access to local amenities. Dollywood is within 21 miles. The University of Tennessee and Knoxville's attractions are within 28 miles. Three large bedrooms plus extra basement sleeping areas. 5 full bathrooms. The main bedroom includes an office/study, and the bathroom features a vintage bathtub and a custom walk-in shower. There are two wood-burning fireplaces: the main one features stacked stone, while the basement fireplace uses bricks and a mantle sourced from the family homestead. A section of the backyard is fenced for children and pets. No city property taxes to pay, only county. No HOA restrictions or fees and short-term rentals are OK. This property provides many options. As a private residence, as a large vacation rental, as a corporate retreat. Your call.
The property has a Geothermal heating and cooling system which offers high energy efficiency, cost savings, environmental benefits, and long-term reliability. These systems typically operate at efficiency ratings between 300% and 500%. In other words, they can generate three to five times more energy than they use, which can result in lower energy costs. Stable underground temperatures allow these systems to cut energy use and lower utility bills by up to 70%. Geothermal heat pumps typically last well over 20 years, and this one is just 4 years old. Additionally geothermal systems can provide hot water, further enhancing savings. Plus, the cooled air is naturally dehumidified, improving indoor air quality and providing health benefits. Another unique feature is the Standing Seam Metal Roof. A key advantage of Standing Seam roofing is that its fasteners are hidden, protecting them from UV, moisture, wind, and other elements that cause wear. Panels without holes give your structure a cleaner, sleeker, and more modern appearance. An inground pool surrounded by natural landscaping. A complete set of kitchen appliances is available both on the main level and in the basement, offering versatility for use as an in-law suite or for vacation rentals. Main features an Elmira Stove, known since 1975 for its quality vintage designs blending traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. Red-oak hardwood floors cover the main areas; tiles are used in bathrooms and the sunroom. Stamped concrete appears in the laundry, guest bath, breezeway, and porches, with stained concrete for the basement. Tongue & groove pine ceilings. Much of the home's wood came from trees on the family's 1850s farm, including custom walnut cabinets in the kitchen and master bath, cedar porch posts and trim, and cedar vanities in the upstairs bathroom. The cabinet and bathroom doors located in the basement originate from the family's original homestead, This magnificent log home is also on a yearly maintenance plan which is transferable to the new owners. The exterior walls and driveway have been washed since these photos were taken and the septic tank system has just been serviced. There are many cookie-cutter homes in this area selling for higher prices, with less square footage, less land, with high HOA fees, on treacherous terrain and locations. Not this one. Relocating? Want to live the Tennessee lifestyle? Then this one-of-a-kind property is for you.
