Welcome to 159 Mill Street in Delano, Tennessee--a charming and beautifully updated home nestled on just over half an acre in scenic Polk County. Originally built in 1952, this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offers 828 square feet of thoughtfully renovated living space and is perfect for first-time buyers, those looking to downsize, or anyone seeking a peaceful East Tennessee retreat.
Over the past two years, the home has undergone extensive improvements, including a new central heating and air system with all new ductwork and vents, new windows, roof, gutters with leaf guards, hot water heater, appliances, and more. The bathroom was completely remodeled down to the studs, while the laundry room was rebuilt from the concrete floor up, providing peace of mind and modern convenience throughout.
Step outside and enjoy the approximately 350-square-foot wraparound front porch, where you can take in beautiful mountain views and the quiet surroundings. The property has been thoughtfully designed with both pets and children in mind, featuring separate fenced play areas and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors. Mature trees provide shade and privacy, while a detached carport, concrete driveway, and additional parking space make everyday living easy.
Need extra storage? A spacious storage building at the rear of the property is ideal for tools, lawn equipment, hobbies, or seasonal items.
One of the biggest advantages of this property is the freedom it offers. With no HOA and no known deed restrictions, you'll have flexibility for RV parking, boats, recreational equipment, small livestock, or other hobbies that are often restricted elsewhere.
Located on a quiet street with churches within walking distance and convenient access to everyday necessities, including a nearby gas station and Dollar General, this home combines rural charm with practical convenience.
Polk County taxes are currently only $420.69 annually, helping keep ownership affordable.
