This large, rustic 3bd, 4 bath home situated on 9.5 acres brings you year round, unobstructed views of Yonah Mountain with many large windows throughout. Beautiful, rushing creek also on the property to sit and enjoy. The property is secluded for privacy and security, and yet, the home is large enough for gatherings. This home was certainly designed for those that hold an appreciation for the beauty and splendor of these Appalachian Foothills. The common area of the home is brightened by ample natural light through the many large windows, and softened by the warm tones of the rustic beams on the ceiling and stone work around the wood stove. The home is anchored by wood floors through the main, open living area. More natural light can be enjoyed in the sunroom and on the sleeping porch. The master en suite is on the main level. Master bath features a heated whirlpool tub with mountain views, and double vanity. Built-in bookcases and bunk beds bring functionality and a unique craftsman style feel to the home. Additional bedrooms and a full bathroom are upstairs. The basement boasts a finished common room, half bath, and a safe room. Relax on the large deck while listening to the loud shoals of the creek that runs through the property. The whole house is connected to a generator. A 1000 gallon propane tank is buried on the property for unimpeded landscaping. The HVAC system is brand new. This property offers everything-- space, natural beauty, privacy, and safety/security. Call today for your private showing.
