Property Description
Tucked away on a dead-end street in the foothills of Upper East Tennessee, this extraordinary private paradise offers 7.89 acres of park-like grounds with over 700 feet of pristine frontage on the WATAUGA RIVER and breathtaking mountain views.

Highlights include an open floor plan with formal living room, fireplace, kitchen with an abundance of cabinetry, top of line appliances, breakfast area, formal dining room. There is an impressive great room showcasing vaulted ceilings, wood accents, a stunning stone fireplace, custom cabinetry with a wet bar. There is a large private brick patio adjoining the great room & primary bedroom suite. The primary suite offers a generous en-suite bath with ample storage, a large walk-in closet, while four additional bedrooms with full baths are thoughtfully arranged along a central hall. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring beautiful backyard grounds with tiered brick patios leading to an in-ground heated pool overlooking the river, plus a large brick patio off the kitchen area. Additional amenities include an attached two-car garage, a separate building garage & workshop. Also a covered shed that is great for boat, vehicles, RV, equipment & more. In addition, there is a medal building that is over 8,000 square feet with 3 huge garage doors that is high enough for most any use. A full-size gymnasium & weight room, half bath, & addition balcony space. Many improvements and much updating have been completed in the last eight years of ownership, such as a new kitchen, new master bathroom, updated bathrooms, new finishes throughout the house, updated electrical panels, etc. The pool has a newer pump and heater. There is a private boat launch with direct river access to the WATAUGA RIVER. Known for its TROPHY rainbow, brook & brown trout fishing. Located minutes from the pristine waters of Watauga Lake & in region's finest fly fishing, this level, secluded property offers unmatched privacy, recreation, and year-round enjoyment in a truly exceptional setting. This is a rare find offering more that can tell. (1906R/3538S)
