REDUCED: This one-of-a-kind country home features 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. This house sits on the exact location of an original homestead house. The original house was torn down and completely rebuilt from the ground up in the mid-1970's. Many materials from the original house were reworked and incorporated into the new house. Authenic wormy chesnut from the original house was plained, tinted, and was used to cover the walls in the dining room and living room of the new house. This home features a cathedral ceiling in the main section with beautful wooden support beams. There is an open breezeway that overlooks the living room and connects the two upstairs areas. White oak hardwood covers the majority of the floors throughout the house. One of the upstairs bathrooms features an antique clawfoot bathtub and an antique sink. Central heating and air is provided by a new heat pump that was installed earlier this year. This home also features a glassed-in upstairs sunroom and a downstairs glassed-in sunroom. A large two-car garage is attached to the main house via an enclosed breezeway. Over the garage, is a roomy two-bedroom apartment. This apartment may be used as a mother-in-law's suite or, by utilizing the side entrance, can be closed off from the main house and used as source of rental income. The garage also features a sink and a large storage room. Adjacent to the house, you will find a peaceful, babbling brook that is often home to trout and a variety of birds. The property comes with a large, functional barn and another rustic-looking outbuilding. This home is offered with 2.3 acres of land. If the buyer is interested in only the house and immediated yard area, this is also an option. This is truly a unique, one-of-a-kind home. This house and the surrounding farm land have been in my family for over 100 years. This home is part of farm that has been certified as an authenic Tennessee Century Farm. The house has also been featured on the local Tour of Homes on various occasions. It truly pains me to sell this house. However, I work full time and my family farms and owns a business. We find that we simply no longer have the time to dedicate to the upkeep and ownership of a home of this size. This is also the perfect location for country living with benefits. The house is located less than a one hour's drive from the world famous Bristol International Speedway, from historic Abingdon, VA, from beautiful Watauga Lake, and from Boone, NC and the surrounding ski areas. If you are in the market for country living with benefits, this is the ideal home for you. Doe Valley and surrounding Johnson County is the ideal rural community and would be a wonderful place for anyone to make their home.
