Laundry is on the main level for easy access, and the cellar-style basement offers extra storage or a root cellar setup. Hardwood and laminate floors run throughout most rooms, highlighted by wood trim and solid interior doors. Relax on the front porch and enjoy peaceful mountain views over the rolling fields. The home is on public water, with exterior spigots fed by a well. Located just 7 miles to Red Barn Produce, 8.5 miles to Cherokee Lake access at Cherokee Dam, 13 miles to Carson-Newman University, ≈ 30 miles to Knoxville shopping, and ≈ 45 miles to Dollywood. Low Grainger County taxes and no restrictions make this property a rare find for those seeking usable acreage and country living potential in East Tennessee.
