Built in 2022 and offered fully furnished with limited exclusions, this custom-crafted residence offers the confidence and convenience of new construction—without the wait. Also available is a separate 2.2-acre buildable LAKEFRONT parcel see MLS listing 9982900 (Lot 9 Draft Rd, PIN 097G A 009.00) with approximately 150 feet of shoreline. This rare tract features a gently sloping building site with expansive water and mountain views, direct access from a shared community drive, and a three-bedroom septic perk already on file—setting the stage for immediate development. Golden Eagle Log & Timber Homes, a Wisconsin based company, are renowned for their craftsmanship and enduring quality, and this property exemplifies those hallmarks with premium materials, a poured concrete foundation, and thoughtful design throughout. The homesite spans 2.73 acres across four combined parcels, the offering delivers space, privacy and flexibility. If desired, the parcels can be divided, offering opportunities for future development or resale. The main level of the home showcases vaulted ceilings, an open-concept layout and a panoramic wall of windows framing the stunning landscape. A stone propane fireplace anchors the great room, while the chef's kitchen includes LG black stainless appliances, quartz countertops, a walk-in pantry, and a stone-accented island with a propane cooktop and generous seating. The main-level primary suite features two walk-in closets and a spa-like en-suite bath with tranquil mountain views. Two dedicated office spaces on the main level provide ideal flexibility for remote work or additional sleeping quarters—and with high-speed fiber internet available, the property is perfectly equipped for modern living and virtual productivity. The lower level, with separate entry, includes a second full kitchen, stone fireplace, two bedrooms, full bath, safe room, fitness area, and a large unfinished bonus space ideal for a media room or future expansion. Outdoor living includes a covered main-level deck, fire pit area, terraced garden beds, and picturesque vistas from nearly every angle. The attached three-car garage is complemented by a 40x60x16 foot detached workshop featuring 200-amp service, spray foam insulation, plumbing, and four oversized bays—ideal for boat or RV storage. Watauga Lake is one of the most pristine and scenic bodies of water in the Southeast. Surrounded by the Cherokee National Forest and protected shoreline, the lake boasts 6,400 surface acres and over 100 miles of shoreline. Renowned for its clarity and quiet charm, Watauga offers deep water ideal for boating, paddleboarding, kayaking, and swimming. Anglers will appreciate abundant populations of rainbow and lake trout, smallmouth bass, walleye and crappie. The property is also just minutes from access points along the Appalachian Trail, and several vineyards providing unmatched 4-season recreational appeal.
