About This Home

As of March 2019

Nestled on a wooded lot at an elevation of over 4000 feet in the Great Smokey Mountains, this 10 year old cottage will sweep you away. There is a stair-less entry to the main floor, which makes this home easily accessible. 3 bedrooms and baths, with a master on the main floor and upstairs. The living room, dining room and kitchen are open and focus on a beautiful stacked stone fireplace that has gas logs or could be converted to wood-burning. Details are well thought out with custom cherry cabinets and built-ins, granite counters, stainless appliances, hardwood floors and stained glass front door. The upstairs loft provides another sitting area as well as a home office space. Sliding doors open to the deck where you can enjoy some mountain view, or you can relax on the covered porch. This home is currently in a rental program with excellent rental history. It is being sold turn-key - completely furnished down to linens and silverware with the exception of some personal art and accessories. The inspection has already been completed. This is the best buy in Wildwood Forest and with future rentals booked, you will have income to cover expenses.
