Property Information

Exceptional Mini-Farm with Historic "Log Cabin" Charm & Modern Comforts on 4.82 acres..

With a thoughtfully updated home, multiple outbuildings, barns and workshops, and usable pasture acreage, it’s ideal for those seeking a working mini-farm, creative retreat, or simply a peaceful lifestyle in the Smoky Mountain foothills. It has been a working artist's studio in the past.

The Home:
Step onto the welcoming front porch and into a bright, open great room featuring a massive stone fireplace with hearth seating. The updated kitchen boasts granite countertops, custom wood cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances, flowing seamlessly into a spacious dining area. The main-level bedroom offers vaulted ceilings and a bay window, complemented by a full and half bath on this level which are not ensuite.

A glass-enclosed sunroom with soaring vaulted windows opens to an expansive deck—perfect for entertaining or enjoying the tranquil views. Downstairs, a private primary suite includes a spa-like ensuite with double sinks, a large tiled shower, separate water closet, walk-in closet, and patio access with hot tub hookup. The lower level also features a second canning kitchen, hobby/workshop space, and a large multi-purpose room ideal for a playroom, bunk space, or guest accommodations.

The Setting:
