Description

Farmhouse with acreage! Rare property in this popular area of Dandridge, Jefferson County, TN. Bring your family and enjoy this mostly wooded property with garden area and barn with two out buildings and two dog pens. This is zoned Agricultural, so bring your horses, cows and chickens and grow a garden. Great tasting well water. Vintage 1890's house with authentic wood ship lap siding, real hardwood floors on the main level with plank under carpeting and vinyl upstairs. Large, spacious rooms with 9' ceilings on the main area of first floor and 14' cathedral ceiling upstairs. Unfinished basement has 1 car garage and large shop area with wood stove for auxiliary heat. Attached 1 car carport enters to back door and sun room, then straight to kitchen or dining room. Circular drive with rock walkway leads to the front door. Sit on the front porch swing and enjoy the shade of the huge white oak and maple trees in the yard. Natural landscaping with native plants including roses and honeysuckle. Watch the deer eat the acorns in the front yard and wild turkeys roosting in the woods. Unrestricted acreage like this is hard to find and this allows for many uses of the property under the Agricultural zoning. In additional to its agricultural use, it has been used as a commercial property since 1984, prior to county wide zoning in 1998, so it is presumed to be grandfathered for continued use. With the 65, 000 cars per day passing along the Interstate 40 frontage, one can advertise any on-site business. The dirt is rich and was actively organically farmed and the garden area is spacious and adjacent to the well. The house has had only 3 families living there in the past 130 years. Your family can be the fourth! The house was modernized with new 220 volt, 200 ampere electrical breaker service in 1985 and underground electric service, so there are no wires visible. The plumbing was also updated with copper supply lines and the septic field lines were replaced in 2005. It has both wired and battery smoke alarms as well as carbon monoxide alarms. Enjoy coffee in the sun room with a fire in the glass-front stove on those cool winter days. Pass the summer time evening hours swinging on the front porch under the shade of the huge white oak tree. This acreage allows for privacy or you can build another house for your extended family. There is plenty of road frontage for subdividing the property for additional residences if you wish. Douglas lake has public access about 2 miles away, so go fishing or go skiing just minutes from home. Cherokee Lake is also nearby, so you have a choice of lakes. Public access to the Chucky River is also just minutes away. The kitchen island has a food prep/snack bar built around the dishwasher. The built-in microwave is over the stove.
