Looking for a Watauga Lake getaway with room for family, friends, hobbies and outdoor living? This one-of-a-kind property offers three separate finished spaces on approximately half an acre directly across from beautiful Watauga Lake, with a public boat launch just across the street and two marinas within approximately 1.5 miles. At the heart of the property is a charming restored 1935 farmhouse originally located in Old Butler and moved to its present location when the Tennessee Valley Authority created Watauga Lake. The main cottage features two bedrooms, one spacious bath with laundry, original heart pine floors, an updated kitchen and bath, restored original details, newer heat pump, updated insulation, and a new roof and sheathing. But what makes this property truly special is everything beyond the main cottage. A separate finished party barn provides additional flexible space with a living area, kitchen, bedroom, full bath and garage-style door that opens to the outdoor entertaining area. A detached finished tiny house provides additional guest, studio or sleeping space. The fully fenced yard offers plenty of room for pets, gardening and gatherings, while the upper portion of the property provides elevated views of Watauga Lake. Enjoy mornings on the porch, evenings overlooking the water, and boating, fishing, kayaking and swimming just steps from home. Offered furnished with limited exclusions and no HOA, this distinctive property is ideal for buyers looking for a lake getaway, full-time residence, multi-space retreat or property with flexible guest and recreational areas. This is not simply a small cottage. It is an opportunity to enjoy the Watauga Lake lifestyle with multiple finished spaces and lake access right outside your door.
