The East Tennessee Preservation Alliance is marketing this charming ca. 1900 house nestled in a historic neighborhood adjacent to downtown Sweetwater. The house has retained many of its original features such as hard wood floors, pocket doors, lead glass windows, built in cabinets, and gorgeous mantles. The house is ready for modern updates and would make a lovely residence or small office due to its walkability to downtown. The expansive house includes 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 2 kitchens, and a semi-attached storage building. The large level lot would be perfect for entertaining and a rousing croquet match. Remarkably, the house is priced below the tax appraised price. The Colonial Revival style influences show up on the front columns and the gracious side porch. The interior features beautiful fireplaces, several French doors, and abundant natural light. The neighborhood and surrounding area have a walkscore of 65, with schools, hospital, churches, restaurants , library and grocery store all less than a mile away, while still on a beautiful tree-lined street. Sweetwater offers the best of both worlds, with charming, small-town life outside your door, but the amenities and cultural events of the Knoxville about an hour away. Recreational activities also abound, as Tellico and Watts Bar Lake with numerous opportunities for adventure is about a half an hour away. Sweetwater is nestled in a valley, at the gateway to the Cherohala Skyway in Monroe County, Tennessee. Incorporated in 1875, the city flourished due to the establishment of the railroad running through what is now a revitalized downtown business district and the Sweetwater Creek, which winds its way throughout the city. The Mayes Avenue Historic District, where the house is located, has seen a recent resurgence with several historic houses being rehabilitated. The momentum of the residential district has followed the trends of Downtown Sweetwater. Just this year, Sweetwater was added as an official Tennessee Main Street Community, which is a prestigious designation that will help continue the positive impact of preservation on the community and the local economy.
