Absolutely charming and packed with nostalgic character, this nearly 100-year-old cottage is being offered for the very first time. Nestled on a beautiful 3-acre corner lot, this vintage dollhouse offers endless potential with no restrictions—keep it quaint and cozy, restore it to its historic glory, or live here while you build your dream home.
Inside, you'll find a surprisingly functional layout featuring a living room, den, kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and utility room, all showcasing the lovable retro personality of the era. Step outside to enjoy peaceful country living on two sides: relax on the covered front porch overlooking Ruggles Ferry Golf Course, or unwind on the back deck with tranquil views of surrounding pastures.
Modern comforts are already in place, including a 2-year-old HVAC system. The home is currently on septic, but public sewer is available for future development options. With no restrictions and a desirable corner position, this property offers tremendous opportunities: multi-family possibilities, rental income, or land to build while preserving the original home.
Located only minutes to shopping, dining, and major travel routes, yet tucked away for complete privacy and quiet living. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate floating and recreation opportunities on the nearby Holston River. Convenient access to Knox, Jefferson, and Sevier counties adds even more value.
Bring your vision—this rare, storybook property offers charm, acreage, and potential all in one package.
