Tucked away on a full acre in beautiful Sewanee, this completely remodeled cottage offers the perfect blend of charm, room to grow and modern updates, just minutes from town and convenient to University of the South, yet not located on the Domain. With no HOA and no restrictions, plant your garden or get chickens, you’ll enjoy both freedom and flexibility in an idyllic setting.
This inviting 4-bedroom, 2-bath home has been completely renovated. Step inside to find new luxury vinyl flooring throughout, fresh interior and exterior paint, modern light fixtures, and a bright simple layout filled with natural light. The spacious living room features large windows and flows seamlessly through the home’s original arched opening into the beautifully updated kitchen and dining area, preserving some cottage’s original character with modern updates.
The brand-new kitchen showcases black granite countertops, new cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a removable island for flexible entertaining. Just off the kitchen, the generously sized primary suite offers comfort and privacy with its own ensuite bath with a low-entry shower. Down the hallway, you’ll find three additional bedrooms and a second full bath with tub/shower combination for convenience.
Major upgrades provide peace of mind, including a brand-new HVAC system with new ductwork, a roof approximately 10 years old, septic cleaned in 2024 with a new line installed from the house to the road, and a gas heater for backup warmth. An old well remains on the property as well.
Outside, enjoy slow mornings on the large covered stone front porch overlooking the expansive yard. French doors off the dining area lead to the covered back porch and backyard, where two storage buildings, one with electricity and one with water hookup, offer endless possibilities. A double carport provides additional covered parking.
Charming, updated, and move-in ready, this Sewanee cottage is the perfect place to call home or a great STR.
