More than just a home, this lovingly cultivated sanctuary was developed over many years by passionate gardeners who transformed the property into a thriving, productive landscape. They grew an abundance of flowers, herbs, fruits, berries, and vegetables while sharing their knowledge with the community by educating others and selling many of their plants at local markets. Every garden bed, pathway, and planting reflects years of planning, creativity, and a genuine respect for nature. As you explore the grounds, you'll discover a flourishing ecosystem designed to nourish both people and wildlife. Countless seasonal flowers attract many varieties of butterflies, bees, birds, and other beneficial pollinators. Fruit trees, berry bushes, flowering perennials, and edible gardens create a productive landscape that is a peaceful refuge for everyone. This property is perfectly suited for those who dream of sustainable living or expanding their gardening passion. The impressive 15' x 24' hoop greenhouse features summer ventilation and winter heating capabilities for year-round growing. An additional garden area behind the home is ready for cultivating, while the outdoor garden shed provides convenient storage. New wood fencing along the northeast side of the property adds both privacy and functionality. Inside the home, you'll find numerous updates, including a new shower and bathtub, new subfloors in both bathrooms, new studs and drywall in the full bathroom, new sinks and vanities, a new dishwasher, new garbage disposal, partially installed luxury vinyl flooring (with remaining flooring included), and a convenient mudroom just off the kitchen. The chest freezer and basement dehumidifier will also remain with the home. For added peace of mind, the property is currently under a quarterly perimeter pest management contract with Honor Guard Pest Management for termites, ants, and other common pests. Situated on approximately 0.76 acres, this charming 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath basement ranch offers approximately 1,540 square feet with an unfinished walkout basement, covered porch, and inviting outdoor gathering spaces. Enjoy the tranquility of country living while being just minutes from Oak Ridge and the Horizon Center Industrial Park, where the region continues to experience tremendous economic growth. Recently announced projects include TRISO-X's new advanced nuclear fuel manufacturing facility and research and development center, expected to create approximately 1,140 new jobs, along with Orano's Project IKE uranium enrichment facility, which is expected to bring more than 300 permanent jobs and approximately 1,000 construction jobs to the area. This unique location offers the best of both worlds, peaceful rural living with convenient access to one of East Tennessee's fastest growing technology and employment corridors. This is more than a home, it's an opportunity to continue the vision of owners who believed gardening could be both purposeful and restorative. Whether you dream of growing your own food, cultivating flowers, creating a pollinator paradise, or simply living in harmony with nature, 231 Wright Road offers a rare opportunity to own a property where years of dedication have created something truly special.
