This newly-built cottage, nestled in the foothills of the mountains of East Tennessee is a peaceful family-friendly oasis. It is located just off of Highway 167 and offers a long gravel driveway through an umbrella of trees, which opens up into a freshly-constructed 2 bedroom ( each with a queen size bed )2 full bathroom home, featuring a large furnished front porch, from which to enjoy all of the sights and sounds of nature... Woods for exploring, mountains for hiking, quick access to stocked trout streams and Watauga Lake for fishing, a fire pit and a saucer swing in the trees. The front door opens to reveal the fully-furnished open-concept kitchen, dining room and living room area. Two private bedrooms and bathrooms are located just beyond the main area. The back porch sits at the foot of the mountain that shades the home from behind and offers a gated and walled area.
Our prices remain the same year round.
