FIRST TIME ON THE MARKET Residential log home and garage with five separate living quarters on approx. 36 acres with SPECTACULAR views of Lake Watauga and the surrounding Appalachian Mountains. This is family-owned property that we have used as a family retreat to build and maintain family bonds. It’s an excellent opportunity to get away from the rush and live in the scenic, inexpensive Tennessee mountains...you can keep it just for family, or you can turn it into income-producing property. The property is at the end of a small county road and is inserted/surrounded on 3 sides by National Forest. The driveway winds up to the home at the top of a small private ridge that has a spectacular view of the lake and surrounding mountains. The home has 3-stories and has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths constructed of 12" square logs with many amenities including a wrap-around-2-sides deck, front porch overlooking the lake, jacuzzi tub, a "man-cave" den with bar, floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, full kitchen with island, loft, central heat/air, and a separate adjacent 2-car garage matching the home. Four of the living quarters will come furnished if desired, are 1-1/2 story 12" square log construction, 3 bedrooms,1-2 baths and have a hot tub, stone fireplace, full kitchen, loft, central heat/air, front porch overlooking the lake, rear or side deck, and campfire area with a charcoal park grill. The 36-acre property is very private at the END of a short county road and is inserted into the Cherokee National Forest…surrounded on three sides by hundreds of acres of beautiful, peaceful, quiet forest and a small creek and trail leading down to the lake. There is an additional log-sided, 1 bedroom 1 bath 1 story building away from the others that can be used to house more family or whatever you may desire. It is located at the bottom of the ridge more towards the front gated entrance to the property. This property is close to Boone NC to the east, Johnson City TN to the west and Bristol TN/VA to the north, and there is a lovely county airport (6A4) twenty minutes away. Watauga Lake is a deep-water recreational lake, is mostly within the National Forest, is at the top of the TVA lake chain so it is very clean and has several recreational areas and marinas within a few minutes’ drive. In addition, to the above features, the property includes: *Two (2) spots to park an RV with electric and water hookup ; *A large wooden barn that historically was used to dry tobacco now being used for farm equipment; *A large metal/metal frame building – half is a wood-working shop with specialized tools and outlets all around (and even some that lower from the ceiling) and the other half used for project storage, cabin supplies, and other items; *A tall metal/metal frame carport for an RV adjacent to the workshop; *1 or 2 (haven't decided yet), ½ acre adjacent parcels of land with existing city water hookups; *Underground city water system to all but the barn and garage; *Underground electric system along the ridge so the views are not impeded by wires or poles; *Newly installed Ubiquiti 100MB speed internet system; *Newly installed security system.
