A homesteader's dream with privacy, usable acreage, multiple dwellings and plenty of room to make this property your own! Situated on 28.28 gently rolling acres, approximately half wooded with open acreage currently used for hay, this unique property offers mountain views, three wet-weather ponds, a well (not been used), spring (not been used), public water (connected to home), greenhouse and even your very own cave, believed to be Hutton Cave. At the heart of the property is a charming three-level log cabin offering approximately 825 square feet on each level. The main level features a huge living room highlighted by a beautiful stone fireplace with insert, along with an open kitchen and dining area. Upstairs you'll find the primary suite, two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The basement provides even more living space with a family room featuring a second fireplace and patio doors, a multipurpose room, laundry room and full bath. Hardwood flooring adds to the rustic character of the home. Solar panels are in place for the main home but will need to be connected. The approximately 620-square-foot guest cottage is just as charming, offering one bedroom, a full bath with tiled step-in shower and an open living, dining and kitchenette area. Mini-splits provide heating and cooling, and there is also a flue for a wood stove. It's a great option for guests, extended family or additional flexible space. There's even more potential in the approximately 900-square-foot multipurpose building. Complete with a full bath and packaged terminal heat pump, this space could potentially serve as additional living space, a hobby or craft building, private getaway, workshop, office or whatever best fits your needs. Storage and workspace are plentiful with a 23x35 detached two-car garage featuring a storage room and heated/cooled office, an oversized detached one-car garage and a two-car carport. Whether your plans include homesteading, gardening, hay production, recreation, working from home, accommodating extended family or simply enjoying the privacy and space of country living, this property offers a combination that is hard to find. And while the setting feels tucked away, you're only approximately 15 minutes from town and 20 minutes from I-81, providing convenient access to Asheville, Knoxville, Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol, Gatlinburg, Sevierville, the Great Smoky Mountains, Appalachian Trail and five area lakes.
