    What's special

    Extraordinary viewsLarge walk-in closetOversized pantry
    A Rare Second Chance. Some opportunities don't come around twice, but this one just did. This extraordinary Fort Loudoun Lake estate is available once again after a previous contract concluded due to buyer circumstances. If you missed it the first time, here's your opportunity. There is simply no adequate way to fully describe the view from this conveniently located, dockable lakefront estate on Fort Loudoun Lake. Featuring approximately 240 feet of year-round water frontage, the property enjoys sweeping lake vistas that stretch across the horizon, while the home's architecture, both inside and out, offers a timeless elegance rarely found today. Built in 2000, this one-of-a-kind custom residence features approximately 6,500 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 4½ bathrooms thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Exceptional custom stonework throughout the property enhances its character, craftsmanship, and enduring appeal. Situated on a beautifully landscaped 1.77-acre lakefront lot, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, breathtaking scenery, year-round water access, and exceptional outdoor living. The chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with a 42-inch Sub-Zero refrigerator, Dacor double ovens with gas cooktop, an oversized pantry, and a convenient built-in desk area near the powder room. The impressive great room showcases spectacular water views from nearly every window and is enhanced by soaring 12-foot ceilings that create an open yet inviting atmosphere. The primary suite feels like a private retreat, offering stunning views, an oversized vanity and dressing area, a large walk-in closet, and its own spacious laundry room. The spa-inspired bath features a double-headed shower with a Kohler steam shower system. Just off the main level, a recently added screened porch overlooks the pool, lake, and distant mountains. This inviting space provides the perfect setting for morning coffee, quiet conversation, or relaxing evenings while enjoying the scenery. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including an oversized suite that provides exceptional privacy and flexibility for family or guests. The poolside lower level was designed with entertaining in mind, featuring a convenient kitchen, full bath, and direct access to the outdoor living areas. A large den is wired for a home theater and includes its own cozy fireplace. This level also offers dedicated workout space, a bonus room, and tremendous flexibility for recreation, hobbies, or overnight guests. A fourth garage bay adjoins a dedicated workshop area, while an additional utility room offers a sink, countertop workspace, and abundant storage. The original owner's passion for horticulture is reflected throughout the beautifully planned grounds. That vision comes to life along the property's private walking trail, which winds through wooded gardens and tranquil seating areas designed to enjoy the natural beauty of the setting. Outdoor living is equally impressive, highlighted by a generously sized swimming pool and separate hot tub overlooking the lake and surrounding mountains. An enormous walk-up attic above the main-level three-car garage provides exceptional storage and future possibilities. Rarely does a property combine this level of craftsmanship, privacy, year-round water frontage, outdoor living, and extraordinary views. This is a unique opportunity to own one of Knoxville's most distinctive homes on Fort Loudoun Lake.
