Great opportunity to own two homes on over 10 acres in a peaceful setting just across the TN line. Only 25 minutes to Boone and only 6 miles from Mountain City, TN. Main home has all hardwood floors, covered and open decks, and a large sunroom. The lower level has the kitchen, living/dining area and the laundry. Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths along with two bright sitting areas. The master is very large with a walk in closet and its own access to one deck. Just above it is a mobile home featuring 2 bedrooms, two full baths, and a large living area with a wood stove. There is a detached two car oversized garage that provides plenty of space for a large workshop while still housing the cars. The land lays beautifully with additional homesites higher up with nice mountain views. Live in one and rent the other or have the mobile home for guests and in-laws. Just a short stroll from Roan Creek offering great trout fishing. Adjacent cottage on . 75 acres available at a steep reduction to an interested buyer!
