This amazing country home is nestled in highly sought after Lower Burningtown and boarders Burningtown Creek adjacent to a public access point of the Needmore Game Lands at Dragonfly Cove! You will see stunning valley views while driving to the property thru Iotla Valley and Burningtown. Peppered with mountain ranges and rolling hills with quintessential views of old rural America complete with old barns and cattle grazing. This raised ranch has had many upgrades including quartz/granite countertops, a walk-in shower and a Vermont Casting Insert for those chilly fall and cold winter nights! The circular driveway gives access to the upstairs and each garage door! Parking is often an issue in mountain homes, but this is one of those rare exceptions! If you don't want to park in the garage, how about under the front deck as the seller used to do! There is also a 22'x30' R.V. carport as well! The options are limitless! If you choose to pull up around the back of the house, you can enter the deck by either the ramp or steps. The door or the sliding doors lead to the country kitchen so bringing in groceries is a cinch. The kitchen has low maintenance quartz countertops and a stone backsplash. The living room, with its sliding doors and oversized windows provide more than ample natural light! It is spacious, cozy and the Vermont Casting Insert promises you will “stay warm”. The upstairs bathroom has granite countertops, ceramic tile and is off the hallway with easy access for any room in the house. The large master bedroom has two closets, two windows and a sliding glass door to the front deck. Bedroom two is a respectable size as well. The unique attic space is accessed via a stairway between the kitchen and living room. It is fully floored with four windows. It defies the typical attic! The basement has both an indoor and outdoor entrance. The carpeted stairs leading down will bring you to an unfinished bathroom with a toilet and shower next to the laundry area. There is a large room in the basement that could be finished off for a third bedroom if one desires to do so or keep it as a hobby room! Under the stairway there is a storage area with shelves previously used for canning storage. A door leads to the garage with garage doors on either side! Two cars will fit or leave all or one side of it for a workshop! The yard is level and easy to maintain. Across the street is Burningtown Creek which is bold, pristine and stocked with trout and home to an amazing diversity of wildlife including herons, bald eagles, ducks, otters, reptiles and amphibians. This is nature in the raw! Across the creek you will find 80 acres of state land for trout fishing, hunting, hiking or just plain ole walking! The 80 acres of Needmore Game Lands, connects to over 80,000 acres of National Forest Service Land that has multiple access points in the vicinity of this property. Less than two miles down the road, you will find the pristine Little Tennessee River on Needmore Road for you kayaking, canoeing, fishing and swimming needs. Off road and on road cycling is phenomenal too! The photos just do not do it justice! Use this house as a full-time residence, a basecamp for your own adventures or with the exceptionally easy access, it would make a fantastic short-term rental.
