Description

Set on 4.6 acres, this rare property includes two separate residences, creating flexibility that's hard to find. The main home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths with approximately 1,500 square feet, while the secondary residence provides 2 bedrooms and 1 bath with approximately 750 square feet. It's an ideal arrangement for multigenerational living, extended guests, or a potential revenue generating space that could help offset ownership costs.

The main home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths with approximately 1,500 square feet, while the secondary residence provides 2 bedrooms and 1 bath with approximately 750 square feet. It's an ideal arrangement for multigenerational living, extended guests, or a potential revenue generating space that could help offset ownership costs. At the heart of the main home, an oversized kitchen anchors everyday living, while the living room invites you to slow down around a wood-burning fireplace and take in views of the open field beyond. It's the kind of space where mornings are quiet, evenings are unhurried, and deer wandering through the yard are part of the daily rhythm. A large portion of the acreage sits across the road, offering flat, usable land with a creek at the back. The setting feels almost tailor-made for a future homesite, a barn, or simply a peaceful escape where nature sets the pace. Rather than dividing the property, the road separation creates privacy and opportunity for future development of a long-term vision. The two homes share a driveway yet maintain clear separation, offering connection without compromise. Public water and internet are available, and the setting feels comfortably rural while remaining just minutes from Watts Bar Lake, making it easy to enjoy boating, fishing, or quiet afternoons by the water. This is a place for those who value space, flexibility, and a slower kind of luxury. It's a place where the land, the setting, and the possibilities matter just as much as the homes themselves.
