About this home

Welcome to your private retreat on over 10 acres of pastoral and wooded Tennessee land. This charming 1.5-story farmhouse, originally built in 1960, has been thoughtfully updated with modern living in mind—featuring a spacious second-floor addition completed approximately 8 years ago. With 5 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and 2,540 square feet of living space, this home offers the perfect blend of functionality, comfort, and peaceful surroundings. Step outside and enjoy multiple outbuildings, including a 2-car detached metal garage, utility building with mini-split HVAC, 3 storage sheds, and fenced dog kennels. A covered front porch, electric privacy gate, and expansive back deck lead to a 33-foot above-ground pool with a gas heater—perfect for relaxing or entertaining year-round while taking in the panoramic views. The home is equipped with a metal roof featuring a thermal barrier for energy efficiency, and the central HVAC system is just 1 year old. Located in the scenic Bon Air Mountain area just outside of Sparta, you’re surrounded by nature and adventure—Sunset Rock Overlook is just 5 minutes away, Fall Creek Falls State Park is an hour’s drive, and Wildcat Falls is about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Enjoy the best of rural living while being conveniently situated just 1.5 hours from Nashville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga. With no HOA or zoning restrictions, this property is ideal for mini-farm life, gardening, or simply embracing the space and freedom that comes with country living.
