Sitting on 0.86 of an acre, this is an extremely rare opportunity to purchase a brand new, custom-built, NEVER-LIVED in home, ready to move into NOW. The home was built for a government employee who will be relocating overseas and will not be able to move to Tennessee. No expense was spared in designing the house. Most of the photos on display were taken while the home was under construction. There are a couple of photos recently taken of the finished kitchen area, displaying the cabinets, appliances, and granite countertops. Please excuse the quality of the photos as they were not taken by professional photographers. The entire home has now been completed, which as mentioned, is now ready to move in. 9' ceilings throughout the entire house, a very spacious open floor plan, lots of windows, and two individual bathroom suites on the main floor with great views of Cherokee Lake. An expansive, covered upper deck with majestic views of Cherokee Lake and the surrounding mountains. A split lower double-deck with even more views of Cherokee Lake. The owner's building plans were to convert the finished lower area into a sizeable main bedroom and have one of the deck areas screened. But, since the decision was made not to live in the home, the lower area has been completed as an entertainment/family room with an office. The new owner can decide whether to continue the original planned theme or leave it as is. A mechanical room, heated and cooled, can be utilized for storage or as a workshop. Two heat pumps individually control the temperature settings on the main and lower levels. There is over 4,100 square feet of house under roof. A tankless gas water heater provides instant hot water with the added economic savings of being gas as opposed to electric. The home has an inground 500-gallon propane tank. A bonus is that the tank is full as it has never been utilized. Public water is onsite and high-speed fiber internet is available. A very large garage which will accommodate two full-size vehicles, including a sink basin for rinsing off after a day of working in the yard. The exterior walls are HardiPlank siding, known for its durability and resistance to fading, unlike vinyl siding. Being a fiber cement product, it typically requires painting less often, every 10 to 15 years, unlike traditional wood siding which needs repainting every 5-7 years. Resident-only benefits of the Shiloh Springs community includes individual boat slips and a private boat launch ramp, both maintained by the resort. This allows you to use a dock without the cost of building one. Or the work and expense of having to maintain it. No need to stain or replace warped deck boards. No need to be constantly letting the dock out or bringing it in as the TVA controlled waters ebb and flow. No need to build a concrete ramp for unloading your boat. Jump in your golf cart and be at dock in minutes. Shiloh Springs also offers two private gated entrances, a picnic area, parking area by the dock, walking trails, and, if you don't wish to fill your garage with your boat, trailer, and/or jet skis, a storage area for parking your equipment. Located in Grainger County, with its scenic farmland but close to everything. Walmart in Jefferson City is 18 miles. Walmart in Morristown is 16 miles. Hospitals?

Tennessee offers the advantage of NO State Income Tax and some of the lowest property taxes in the nation.

You can have all this and access to Cherokee Lake, with its fishing, boating, and recreation activities!
