Welcome to your lovely mountain retreat! Nestled on 9+ acres which include a second legal address, this stunning 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home offers superior craftsmanship and inviting details. If you are looking to escape the hustle and bustle, look no further. The exterior immediately sets a tone of custom design, featuring a striking chimney hand-crafted from Minnesota stone and hand-picked North Carolina mountain stone. Step inside to a light-filled open floor plan anchored by a cathedral ceiling and a magnificent stone fireplace. Every inch of this home boasts high-quality touches: The entire upstairs features solid oak floors, while the lower level showcases stunning solid Australian Cypress wood. Custom Millwork: All interior doors were sourced from a Tennessee sawmill, then custom-stained and finished by the builder. The stairway spindles and handrails were specially ordered out of Bristol, VA. The kitchen features River Granite tile countertops, meticulously pattern-matched to create a flawless visual flow. Both full bathrooms feature double sinks and Jacuzzi tubs. Other unique details include a loft over the great room and cozy nooks in two bedrooms as well as a main-floor laundry. Surrounded by mature trees, the home also is on well-maintained blacktop roads and conveniently located only seven miles from Mountain City, TN, for most of your needs. Forty minutes to Boone and West Jefferson, thirty minutes to Damascus and Abingdon. As a bonus, the home is well-insulated for maximum energy efficiency and lower utility costs. The basement is already wired, plumbed, and insulated, offering a blank canvas ready to be finished into additional living space, and the back is graded for a patio or other outdoor space. The property includes a second legal address at 7508 Big Laurel which is grandfathered as buildable with electricity, spring water, driveway, and open, flat corner lot.
