Public Remarks: Escape to true country living without sacrificing comfort or convenience. Nestled on a multi-lot, fully fenced acreage in Washburn and just minutes from the sparkling waters of Norris Lake and the trails of Big Ridge State Park, this exceptional property backs directly to the Narrow Ridge Conservancy, a 300+ acre federally-funded land trust, ensuring your peaceful, private setting is protected for generations to come. No HOA, no future development, just wide-open country living at its finest, surrounded by warm and welcoming neighbors who make this community feel like home from day one. A drive-through asphalt driveway welcomes you home. Step onto the front porch, where rolling hills, open pastures, and the kind of unhurried quiet that most people only dream about stretch out before you. Deer graze at the tree line, turkeys wander through, and the distant sounds of a neighboring farm reminds you that this is a place where life still moves at the right pace. This is the view you will wake up to every single day. The land offers three building sites that could be divided for potential income, two wells with UV filtration and whole-house water filtering, three septic systems, and a stream that winds through the property adding to the natural charm and peaceful ambiance of this one-of-a-kind setting. Fully fenced pastures, a sectioned outbuilding previously used for small livestock, and a separate asphalt driveway on the second lot speak to the agricultural and multi-use potential here, whether you are envisioning a hobby farm, a multi-generational compound, or simply room to breathe. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, a classic sunken great room, and a spacious owner's suite set the tone. Freshly painted throughout in warm neutral tones and move-in ready with all major updates already done, including new carpet in the secondary bedrooms (2022), new well pump and pressure tank relocated to a protected crawl space (2023), new HVAC (2024), and a new hot water heater (2025). Termite warranty in place with quarterly pest prevention. The 4-car garage setup spans two detached garages with bright LED lighting. The lower garage is a true man cave complete with a half bath, electric and water, and a 220V RV hookup. A she shed currently serves as the perfect personal retreat and can easily transition into a studio, workshop, or creative space of any kind. Back outside, a deck with fire table, fenced pastures, and unobstructed views of protected land create a backdrop that feels like a permanent vacation. Thoughtfully curated conveyances ensure you are moving into a property that is truly ready from day one, with washer and dryer, microwave, refrigerators, chest freezer, kitchen island, generator with quick-connect setup, security camera system, and more included.
