Beautiful 3 bedroom/1 bath cottage nestled in a peaceful mountain setting, this inviting home offers one level living with the soothing sounds of a nearby creek. With .57 acres of land, your vision might include expansion and updating to magnify the appeal of this adorable cottage. A separate storage shed provides space for tools, hobbies, outdoor gear, while the attic--conveniently accessed in the hallway--adds extra storage for seasonal items. The basement level presents exciting potential with an existing kitchen area and full bathroom, making it a great opportunity for a future game room, den, or other space(not included in the square footage due to ceiling height and cement floors). While the basement did experience water intrusion from Hurricane Helene, the home is not located in a designated floodway and according to family, has never had water intrusion before. Ideally positioned for both full-time living and vacation enjoyment, this home offers an easy commute to all High Country attractions as well as nearby East Tennessee, making it a wonderful choice for those who love the mountain lifestyle.
