An ideal vacation home or primary residence, it is nestled into the hillside of a peninsula lot in a neighborhood with zoning that does not allow nightly rentals (30+ day rentals are allowed), so your peace & quiet is protected! The great room has a rustic stack-stone wood burning fireplace with traditional hearth and hand-hewn mantle, hardwood floors, a T&G plank ceiling, and a corner kitchen with white cabinets. The bedroom is spacious enough to hold a king bed on storage pedestal and a full bedroom set plus armoire without crowding. Behind the bedroom is a room that previously was the "jacuzzi room" but has now been reconfigured as sleeping space including a closet. A short hallway leads from the bedrooms back to the great room, with a bathroom with step-in shower on the left and a laundry room with full-size machines on the right. In back is a screened porch with swing & rockers for enjoying the view of Mt. LeConte, while in front the stone patio is a great space for entertaining. There is also a storage shed for your outdoor toys and stairs leading to the fenced yard your dog(s) will love it! There are numerous recent updates, including a new metal roof, fencing, stairs, HVAC, electrical service, and more. The lot is almost a half-acre, with mature trees, native rhododendron, and a detatched 2-car garage. Located near the Glades just 5 minutes off the East Parkway, the property enjoys city utilities as well as easy access to all our area has to offer ... request a showing now, don't miss your chance to own a piece of Smokies history!
