Step into the charm of history and modern comforts in this beautiful Victorian Cottage on 1.58 acres, just off US 11E. A serene, year-round flowing creek enhances the peaceful country setting, with just 8 minutes to Greeneville, 15 minutes to Jonesborough, and 20-25 minutes to Johnson City.
The wraparound Victorian porch, adorned with gingerbread trim and intricate woodwork, invites you into this remodeled home full of character. While tax records date it to 1925, local history suggests it was built before 1875. Resting on a solid limestone foundation that's expected to last another 100 years, the home also features a durable metal roof for added longevity. Some recent updates include a new water heater, HVAC ductwork, and remodeled bathrooms with updated plumbing.
Inside, original wide-plank wood floors lead into a cozy den with a propane fireplace, connecting to the dining area and remodeled kitchen, both showcasing octagonal recessed ceilings. The kitchen blends granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a stamped tile floor, and a spacious pantry with pie hutch doors. Across the foyer, a spacious living room currently used as a master suite features a propane fireplace, bay window, and private bath access. The foyer also includes a trap door, rumored to have been part of the Underground Railroad.
Upstairs, a private retreat with its own entrance and keypad lock is ideal for guests, rental, or multi-generational living. This floor includes three bedrooms, attic storage, a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a spacious hallway, perfect for a playroom, office, or kitchenette. Two bedrooms feature private balconies with scenic views.
Outside, a gazebo with electricity overlooks the creek, providing a peaceful escape. The land is ready for gardening, with established plots, newly planted fruit trees, a powered workshop shed, and a well-built chicken coop.
