This is the kind of home that takes your breath away the second you walk in the front door and see Cherokee Lake framing every window. Sitting on 1.17 acres of double-lot lakefront in Hamblen County, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath brick home is 5,300 square feet of finished living space spread across three levels, each one designed with the lake in mind. The main channel frontage gives you 270-degree views that you honestly have to see to believe. The great room drives that point home with soaring vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows looking straight out over Cherokee Lake, hardwood floors, and a fireplace that makes the whole space feel like the kind of place you never want to leave. The kitchen was built for people who actually cook. Rich custom cabinetry runs wall to wall with crown detail and leaded glass accents, quartz countertops, a center island with cooktop seating, double wall ovens, a built-in microwave, stainless refrigerator, and a large pantry that keeps everything organized. The formal dining room is right there when you need it, and the layout flows naturally into the family room and out to the upper deck where Cherokee Lake is right in front of you. A formal office on the main level rounds out the main floor for anyone working from home. Upstairs, the primary suite has its own private balcony overlooking the lake, a walk-in closet, and a dedicated primary bathroom. Four additional bedrooms, including one on the lower level, give everyone their own space. Four and a half bathrooms means nobody's waiting in line on a busy lake weekend. The lower level is where the fun really lives. The rec room has a pool table, a foosball table, a media area with leather theater seating, and a kitchenette, and it opens directly to the covered stone patio. Freshly painted throughout and finished with waterproof LVP flooring down here, this level functions completely independently as a guest suite or separate living area. Walk out the door and you're in the backyard overlooking the water. Outside is where this property really separates itself. The upper deck has lake views in every direction and room for a full outdoor dining setup. Below, the covered flagstone patio sits next to the built-in outdoor kitchen, which is finished in stacked stone with granite counters, a stainless grill, sink, and mini fridge. The hot tub is right there too. Landscaped gardens, flowering beds, and a waterfall feature make the grounds feel like something out of a magazine. And then you walk down to the water. The private concrete boat ramp and floating dock with gangway give you direct main channel access on Cherokee Lake without sharing a ramp or waiting on anybody. You own it. You use it whenever you want. The riprap-lined shoreline and 300 feet of waterfront give you room to spread out, and the deep water off the point means you're not dealing with low-water issues. This is a home for the family that wants it all in one place: the space to gather, the kitchen to feed a crowd, the lower level to give guests privacy, and 300 feet of Cherokee Lake shoreline right out the back door. Gorgeous year round sunsets.
