About this home

*Short Sale* A Private Hilltop Estate of Rare Distinction Tucked away atop a secluded hill and enveloped by nearly seven acres of pristine woodland, this exceptional estate offers a lifestyle of privacy, refinement, and natural beauty at the Knox/Blount County line. With seasonal mountain and valley views and a long, winding approach through mature forest, the arrival experience alone feels like entering a private retreat. Every aspect of the property has been thoughtfully reimagined to support elegant living and effortless entertaining. The grounds unfold into a resort-caliber setting featuring a saltwater swimming pool, multiple outdoor gathering spaces, two fire pit areas, and a beautifully finished pool house with kitchenette, bath, and storage -- ideal for hosting guests or enjoying peaceful evenings under the stars. Inside, the home blends timeless architecture with sophisticated upgrades. Iron French doors open to a gracious foyer and an inviting living room accented by hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace with gas starter, and a custom wet bar. A sunlit executive office with granite surfaces and bespoke built-ins offers a refined work-from-home experience. The residence is thoughtfully designed for comfort and privacy, with three en-suite bedrooms on the lower level, a spacious laundry room with extensive storage, and the rare convenience of both a laundry chute and dumbwaiter serving all levels. The upper level reveals a dramatic great room crowned by soaring cathedral ceilings, skylights, custom built-ins, and a second fireplace, flowing seamlessly into a dining space framed by views of the surrounding landscape. A newly designed staircase with iron spindles anchors the architecture, while the loft above offers a sophisticated library and sitting area with access to a walk-in attic enhanced by new foam insulation and approximately 1,000 square feet of functional storage.
