Property Description
This turnkey, fully-furnished lakefront home is nestled on 8.3 acres with direct lake access via a trail to a quiet cove with a USACE permit. Unlike many steep lakefront lots, this property features a large, flat yard and a substantial parking area that easily accommodates multiple vehicles or boat trailers. The fully renovated interior boasts Acacia hardwood flooring, a stacked-stone gas fireplace, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The layout includes 4 bedrooms, 3 with ensuites--all with lake views--4 full bathrooms, and 2 half bathrooms (including one in the attached 3-car garage). You will also find a private 3rd-floor loft, an extra flex room (ideal for an office, game room, or extra sleeping space), a spacious laundry room, and abundant closet storage. Outdoor living shines with a wrap-around porch and a veranda overlooking the lake and surrounding mountains. Modern infrastructure includes 1G Fiber Optic high-speed internet, a newly installed water line from the main meter, one recently replaced HVAC unit (with the second newly serviced), and an upcoming retaining wall with a lifetime warranty. Enjoy total peace and privacy with private trails traversing the 8+ acres and no neighboring houses in sight from the home. While originally intended as a full-time residence, it has excelled as a vacation getaway and short-term rental property. Excellent location just 10 miles off I-40, 10 miles to Cookeville city limits, and only 7.5 miles to Cookeville Boat Dock.
