Tucked within one of East Tennessee's most unique and protected lakefront communities, this stunning custom-built home on Ripshin Lake offers a rare opportunity to experience mountain and lake living at its finest. Located within the gated Ripshin Lake community, this furnished lakefront retreat features direct access to the private 60-acre lake, a personal dock, breathtaking mountain and water views, and high-speed fiber internet, allowing you to work remotely while surrounded by peace and natural beauty. Designed with comfort, craftsmanship, and connection in mind, the home features an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and beautiful lake views from the kitchen, dining, and living areas. The living room is anchored by a beautiful stone fireplace with a wood mantel and a cozy wood-burning stove that enhances the warm mountain-lodge atmosphere. The kitchen offers wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a seamless flow into the dining area, making it ideal for gathering and entertaining. The wraparound decking provides the perfect setting to relax, entertain guests, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings and stunning lake and mountain views. The main level also includes a spacious primary suite with a full bathroom, along with an additional sitting or sleeping area adjoining the bath. A laundry room is conveniently located just off the kitchen. Upstairs, you'll find an open loft-style space overlooking the main living area, along with two additional sleeping areas perfect for guests or flexible use. The full basement offers even more living and entertaining space with an additional den or bedroom area featuring another wood-burning stove, a second full bathroom, bar or kitchenette area with bar seating, wine cellar, and utility room. Ownership at Ripshin Lake is unlike traditional neighborhood living. This is a Corporate Ownership community where property owners are equal shareholders in the Ripshin Lake Corporation, with shared access to more than 120 acres of preserved land surrounding the lake. Owners enjoy unmatched access to fishing, boating, hiking, and the incredible natural beauty of the adjacent Cherokee National Forest and Roan Highlands, all framed by the soaring Unaka Ridge. Significant community improvements, including major dam enhancements, have already been completed and the lake is now back at full capacity. This is far more than just a home, it's an opportunity to own a piece of one of East Tennessee's most treasured mountain lake communities and create a legacy of adventure, peace, and timeless lakeside living. * * * NOTE- Boundary lines are approximate and shown for illustrative purposes only.
