Your Tennessee wilderness retreat awaits! Experience the ultimate balance of elegance and seclusion at this exceptional property tucked away in the lakefront community of Cove Norris with new pickleball courts and private boat launch. Privately situated at the end of a quiet lane, this 2013 custom residence was crafted with enduring quality and thoughtful design, offering a lifestyle that feels worlds away yet remains just minutes from Rocky Top, Clinton, Norris and I-75 for easy access to Knoxville. The home welcomes you with timeless warmth—an expansive front porch leads you in to gleaming hardwood and tile floors throughout, soaring ceilings, and a magnificent floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that serves as the heart of the living space. Each of the three bedrooms offers a generous scale and its own walk-in closet, ensuring comfort and privacy for all. A main floor bonus or game room, light-filled interiors, tasteful finishes, and a graceful flow between rooms create an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and inviting in this meticulously maintained home. Outdoors, the setting is nothing short of enchanting. Covered porches at the front and back provide idyllic spaces to enjoy seasonal lake views and the serenity of the surrounding hardwoods. The grounds have been carefully maintained and enhanced to blend natural beauty with practical luxury: trails that wind through the woods, a detached workshop or third-car garage, an Amish-built mini-barn with ample storage, and a fully outfitted chicken coop with automated features designed for ease. A prepared 45' by 70' site awaits your vision for an additional barn, pavilion, or storage building. As evening falls, gather by the firepit or host under the stars in a setting alive with wildlife and the gentle rustle of the forest. Modern comforts such as natural gas availability and high-speed internet through Xfinity complement the property's timeless charm, ensuring convenience never comes at the expense of peace and privacy.
