Set high above the water on 20.23 private, wooded acres, Lakeside Lodge is a one-of-a-kind log home that brings together seclusion, craftsmanship, and genuine main-channel waterfront in a way that simply doesn't come along often. A long approach winds through the trees and opens to a circular concrete drive, where the home reveals itself in full--a striking timber-and-stone lodge wrapped in covered porches, glowing against the treeline at sunset. Built in 2019 and offering 4,866 square feet in the main home, this is a residence designed to live large while feeling completely tucked away from the world.
Inside, the home is a showcase of warm, natural materials and serious build quality. Soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed timber beams rise overhead, and handscraped African Mahogany floors run throughout the entire main level, lending a richness underfoot that you feel the moment you step through the double front doors. The great room is the heart of the home, anchored by a breathtaking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace--double-flued and wood burning--that climbs to meet the peak of the ceiling. Walls of windows and glass doors frame the lake and the wooded hillside beyond, flooding the space with light and drawing the outdoors in from every angle. A handsome study lined with built-in shelving offers the perfect quiet retreat, its windows opening to treetop and water views.
The chef's kitchen is built for gathering and entertaining on a grand scale, featuring gleaming granite countertops, a dramatic stone backsplash, a professional gas range, a generous center island, and an abundance of custom cabinetry in a striking mix of finishes. A large walk-in pantry keeps everything within easy reach, while the open, beamed dining area sits framed by windows that pull in the surrounding scenery--a place where morning coffee and long dinners alike feel effortless. The main home offers 4 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, including a serene primary suite with a private spa-style bath, walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a spacious walk-in closet. Bedrooms are generously sized and finished with the same vaulted wood ceilings and lake-facing windows found throughout, while a sun-filled upper-level retreat provides room for billiards, lounging, and game-day fun--a true second living space for family and guests. Beautiful tile baths, a wrought-iron staircase, and thoughtful finishing touches carry the lodge's craftsmanship into every corner.
For everyday rejuvenation, the main home features a dedicated wellness area on the lower level--a private retreat complete with a Finnish sauna positioned to take in the water view, accompanied by a decorative fountain that lends a soothing, spa-like ambiance. It's a rare and luxurious amenity that turns relaxation and recovery into part of daily life at home.
Outdoor living is where this property truly sets itself apart. Expansive covered porches stretch across the back of the home, offering the ideal vantage point for sunrises over the water, evening cookouts, and quiet afternoons watching the lake change with the light. Beyond the main house, a detached two-car garage includes a 1,002 square foot upstairs apartment with 1 bedroom and 1 full bath--perfect for guests, multigenerational living, or rental income--while an attached one-car garage adds everyday convenience.
The property also includes a charming additional cabin currently operating as a successful AirBnB rental--offering 400 square feet of cozy living space, its own Finnish sauna, and a dedicated laundry building equipped with a washer and dryer. Sold fully furnished, the cabin is turnkey and ready to continue generating income from day one. Best of all, the property carries no restrictions, giving you the freedom to use this remarkable estate however you choose--from a private family compound to a thriving short-term rental investment.
Down at the water, the property boasts approximately 300 feet of shoreline along the main channel, complete with a private dock for boating, fishing, and swimming straight from your own backyard. A hillside tram carries you effortlessly between the home and the waterfront, making the most of the elevation and the views without the climb. With 20 wooded acres of privacy, sweeping mountain and water vistas, central heat and air, and a setting this rare on the lake, Lakeside Lodge is a legacy property--an exceptional opportunity to own a true waterfront estate in the heart of East Tennessee.
Sellers are open to furniture conveying with the home.
