Welcome to your own piece of Tennessee! This beautifully transformed farmhouse sits at the back of 6+ picturesque acres, offering privacy, peaceful country living, and plenty of room to spread out. With two large stocked ponds and a tree-lined open lot, this property delivers the country setting you’ve been looking for. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully transformed with a brand-new kitchen featuring new cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, along with new flooring and fresh paint throughout. The former third bedroom has been converted into a beautiful sunroom, creating a bright and inviting space to enjoy the natural surroundings. Need three bedrooms? The space could easily be converted back to its original configuration. Outside, the possibilities are endless. Bring your fishing pole! The stocked ponds are ready for you to enjoy. The expansive acreage also provides plenty of room for horses, cattle, gardening, recreation, additional parking, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of your own property. A large site-built garage/workshop with 200-amp service and a brand-new car lift makes this a mechanic’s dream, with plenty of room for vehicles, equipment, projects, and hobbies. Additional features include a rainwater catchment system, new landscaping, and an additional storage shed. The long driveway has been completely upgraded and redone, creating a beautiful approach to this secluded country property. For those who appreciate the outdoors, a natural spring for filling water jugs is less than a mile away, and the property is conveniently located near state parks, hiking, boating, and fishing. Centrally located between Nashville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga, and minutes from the heart of Sparta. If you’ve been searching for a property that combines a beautifully updated home, acreage, stocked ponds, a garage/workshop, and the peaceful feel of rural Tennessee, this one truly has a little bit of everything.
