This home has that feeling---the kind you expect to find tucked near a lake or in the mountains, the place you book for a weekend escape and instantly wish you owned. And here, you get the best of both worlds: a peaceful setting with a lake and mountain view, yet just 15 minutes from Downtown Knoxville and the University of Tennessee, 10 minutes from McGhee Tyson Airport, and 25 minutes from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Set on a wooded, private lot, the home offers a sense of seclusion and tranquility, with wildlife, mature trees, and a serene lake view creating a true retreat-like atmosphere. Inside, the space is warm, open, and full of character--featuring an oversized living room, vaulted ceilings, arched doorways, an open kitchen, and a generous sunroom that?s perfect for soaking in the views year-round. Recent improvements enhance both beauty and functionality. The kitchen has been thoughtfully remodeled with quartz countertops, upgraded and painted cabinetry, a new sink and faucet, and updated fixtures. The sunroom now includes its own mini-split system for heating and cooling, along with a new wood-accent ceiling. Additional upgrades include a new furnace with a one-year warranty, a new tankless hot water heater, fresh paint and trim updates, a new ceiling fan, and a master bath upgrade expanding from tub-only to tub and separate shower. The walk-out basement adds exceptional flexibility and is currently being used as a home gym, offering the perfect setup for fitness, recreation, or additional living space. The home also features a huge secondary primary suite downstairs--ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or creating a private retreat within the home. Outside, dozens of trees have been removed to enhance the view, and also refreshed with new gravel, improving access while maintaining privacy and natural beauty. Whether you're looking for a primary residence, a short-term rental, or a long-term investment, this home delivers lifestyle, flexibility, and that rare vacation-at-home feel. This is a property that truly must be experienced in person to appreciate its views, layout, and one-of-a-kind charm. Call today!
