Totally private custom built brow home on Lookout Mountain. No details have been spared in the construction of this gorgeous home. This is a timber frame custom built home with breathtaking western views of Fox and Sand Mountain. The engineer owner and wife had this custom home built on 9.7 private acres and is anchored to a level plane of bedrock with steel in the footings and poured concrete walls. Breath taking view when entering looking through to the brow and massive oak beams and maple floors. Open kitchen with granite and an island that will delight any chef. The wood burning soapstone fireplace is located in the family room for all to enjoy. Fieldstone custom cherry cabinets, Thermidor cook top with downdraft and Ktchen Aid appliances.. For the early bird the master suite on the main level has an adjoining sitting room/office that opens to the 600 sq. ft. Lock Dry aluminum deck that covers the entire width of the home. The deck will suit any entertainment need with 180 degree view of the unrestricted mountains and valley. Under the main deck is a hot tub for a soothing stay. The ceilings throughout the house are tongue-and-groove pine ceilings. The Graber room darkening shades in all the rooms gives shade when needed. The basement is as clean as you will ever find and gives a wealth of opportunities for projects, mother-in-law suite or whatever is needed. A wood burning fireplace heats the entire area. The walking trails showcase beautiful and stunning natural rock wall formations. The 3.56 acre lot with the pavilion with solar lighting is available for $89,500 with the purchase of the home. This house should be on you must see list and the owners are very anxious to sell as they have recently purchased a new home.
