Have you been dreaming of country living in East Tennessee? Set on just shy of an acre - you might as well call it one acre - this thoughtfully renewed two-bedroom, two-bath cottage offers the kind of peace & practicality people move here for. Nearly everything you see is new — but it's the kitchen & bathrooms that steal the show. The kitchen opens effortlessly to the living room, creating that open, connected feel everyone wants. With new cabinets, laminate countertops, and a deep stainless sink under recessed lighting, it's easy to picture morning coffee here or dinner with friends flowing straight into the living space. Both bathrooms have been completely reimagined with new vanities, toilets, showers, & fixtures — every detail chosen to make daily routines feel a little more like self-care. Behind the scenes, the work that matters most has been done, too: new HVAC heat pump, PEX plumbing, electrical system, insulation, & lighting throughout, with much of the framing newly rebuilt & fresh paint tying it all together. New windows. New interior doors. Step outside of the new exterior doors, & the improvements continue. New gutters & updated siding frame the exterior, while a 2020 roof (per previous owner) adds peace of mind for years to come. The septic tank was pumped in 2025 as well. The property includes a substantial storage barn — ideal for tools, hobbies, or creative workspace — & a brand-new gravel driveway that winds gently up the hill to a level parking area. From there, the covered front porch gives you just enough elevation to take in the quiet country views — a perfect place for a pair of rocking chairs & a slower start to your mornings. New landscaping completes the setting, giving this nearly one-acre property (. 99 of an acre, to be exact) the finishing touches it deserves. While it feels tucked away, the home sits less than four miles (a 7-minute drive) from grocery stores, gas stations, restaurants, pharmacies, & the everyday conveniences of Piney Flats. It's the balance so many buyers look for — country calm without sacrificing access to town. If you've been waiting for a move-in-ready home that blends craftsmanship, peace of mind, & the kind of East Tennessee setting that always feels like home, this one's worth seeing in person. All information deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Buyer and buyer's agent to verify all information.
