All bedrooms on this floor have hardwood floors, spacious closets and pocket doors.

The back deck flows right down the steps to the lake level. Immediately to the left is a new hot tub that accommodates 6-8 on cool evenings in the Fall or during snowfalls in the Winter.

An outdoor rack for hanging robes and an outdoor shower are adjacent. In 2018, the back of the home was professionally landscaped and hardscaped. Two levels of stacked stone walls, lighting, irrigation, and low maintenance plants were added.

The back deck and yard has also been completely enclosed with privacy fencing. The lake level offers an expansive deck, table with fireplace, electrical outlets, and a section that is ready to be built out if additional entertaining space is desired. Recline in the Adirondack chairs and take in the spectacular views.

In 2020, the entire front streetscaping and parking was professionally redone. This project added tiers of stone, pavers, custom lighting, wrought irons hand rails and a custom iron gate. Large Tennessee river stone lines one side of the home with a wrought iron handrail as well.

This home has been updated to be energy efficient (tankless water heater, etc.), but the owners have preserved the character and charm that comes with being tucked in the mountains. The boat house stores all the toys, including paddle boards, floats, fishing poles, and 19-ft.

The covered boathouse enables over-the-water entertaining year round.
