    What's special

    Farmhouse finishesMagnolia farms inspired kitchenAbundance of natural lightVaulted ceilingsNew flooring throughoutWarm inviting spacesRaised planter boxes
    Here is possibly everything you've been looking for AND MORE! It sounds cliche, but it's true...Sweetwater is a cherished location with a quintessential downtown and a small community within a 35-minute drive to Knoxville - and 1 hour to Chattanooga. This quaint town is where you'll find antique shopping, restaurants, open country setting and so much more. This property is tucked away only 10 minutes to the town but FEELS LIKE ITS IN A WORLD OF ITS OWN! This begins with a quarter mile long driveway, lined with peaceful fields and grazing cattle, and ends at the perfect blend of access and seclusion at 196 Southside Road. Sitting atop of the hill and overlooking your 5 acre Homestead, you'll find a remodeled three bedroom, two bathroom main home, totaling nearly 2,000 sq ft -- each area thoughtfully designed with an abundance of natural light and farmhouse finishes: to include a Magnolia Farms inspired kitchen, vaulted ceilings, a primary suite with a soaking tub and separate shower, new flooring throughout, CENTRAL cooling and heat, and warm inviting spaces that make this house a veritable ''peace'' of paradise. Walking out of the backdoor of your home, you'll find a quaint courtyard with beautiful brick work and $28,000 in Japanese Maple Trees (truly, these Sellers spared NO expense during their ownership), a waterfall, and a 200 sq ft building with a front porch, complete with electricity and a mini-spilt unit! It is being used as a schoolroom, but it's ready for you and your dreams -- perhaps an outdoor kitchen, completing the Southern lifestyle dream! Adjacent to the main home, there's a MASSIVE BRICK garage ready for a car lift or RV parking, and a roof that allows for a second story to be built on it -- complete with floor joists and a complete cover of Henry's Tropi-Cool! Also on this property, you'll find a 800 sq ft second home (with its own mini-split system); an additional homesite with a 3 bedroom septic; and 3 RV Hookups! Whether you have dreams of a multi-family homestead, options for guests, art studio, gym, office for your business, or rental income -- This could be THE ONE. Looking to add value to your investment? The additional home already has new joists, subfloor, LVP flooring, farmhouse wall covering, and massive windows that overlook the property. You may consider subdividing and capitalizing! If the farm life is your life, then you will LOVE the 10X16 barn, 10X12 INSULATED greenhouse, and a commercial grade concrete slab (built to withstand a massive structure 40X60 concrete slab with commercial 6" thick concrete and 12"X16" footers) -- accompanied by two 25 ft carports (one currently used as a chicken coop and the other for equipment storage)! Kick off your gardening season with seed starting room, then put your mature seedlings into the raised planter boxes! Need to store your produce? 196 Southside Road has that covered, too (literally) with a 25X25 11 ft tall root cellar, equipped with pallet racks for YEARS of storage. This property is also ready for your animals -- complete with fenced habitats, grazing pastures, a 6 stall run-in shed, and so much more. Hydrating your homestead--both literally and figuratively--starts with a 300-foot-deep well, backed by a whole-house Aqua Clear filtration system and reverse osmosis! Looking to go off grid? This property has that covered, too -- there's already 21 solar panels installed on the roof! There's no restrictions on property usage, so you can bring your dreams to life at 196 Southside Rd in Sweetwater, TN!
