About This Home
Private, well-maintained solid log cabin tucked away on 16.5 unrestricted acres in the heart of East Tennessee, offering the kind of peaceful mountain setting that's getting harder to find. Surrounded by mature woods and natural beauty, this property gives you the privacy and space to truly enjoy the outdoor lifestyle while still being just 5 minutes from Spring City, 45 minutes to Knoxville, and 25 minutes to Dayton . The cabin features high ceilings and an open floor plan with that warm, classic log home feel. Step outside to two covered front porches--perfect for morning coffee or unwinding in the evenings--and an uncovered back porch overlooking nothing but woods and wildlife. The fenced front yard adds convenience for pets or kids, and the stone retaining wall brings character and a true mountain touch to the property. A long asphalt driveway leads you up to the home, setting the tone for a private retreat. The oversized one-car garage offers great storage and could easily be finished into additional living space, a bunk room, or game room. The land itself is ideal for a homestead or recreational use--featuring a mix of usable ground and wooded acreage, along with established blueberry bushes. With no restrictions, you have the freedom to truly make it your own. In addition to the main cabin, the property includes a detached metal shop and a second home (approx. 1,210 sq ft, 2 bed, 1 bath), making it perfect for rental income, guests, or a multi-family setup. This is East Tennessee mountain living at its best--private, functional, and full of opportunity, all within minutes of town.
