About this home

Set on more than 9 acres, this mountain retreat offers a unique opportunity with a second legal address at 7508 Big Laurel. Enjoyed as a vacation home, the property includes a separate entrance to the main-floor bedroom, originally intended to provide access to a planned patio that was never completed. A second entrance serves the 7508 address, where an open, level corner lot, existing electricity, and driveway offer additional possibilities. The second site is buildable, presenting potential for a guest house, workshop, or other use. The home reflects thoughtful craftsmanship, from its distinctive Minnesota and North Carolina mountain stone chimney. The entire upstairs features solid oak floors, while the lower level showcases stunning solid Australian Cypress wood. Custom Millwork: All interior doors were sourced from a Tennessee sawmill, then custom-stained and finished by the builder. The basement is already wired, plumbed, and insulated, offering the opportunity to create additional living space, while the graded area behind the home is ready for future outdoor improvements such as a patio with a fire pit to gather. This home is conveniently located only seven miles from Mountain City, TN, for most of your needs. Forty minutes to Boone and West Jefferson, thirty minutes to Damascus and Abingdon. Whether seeking a private mountain getaway or a property with room to explore additional possibilities, this acreage offers features worth discovering.
