Single-level 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath brick ranch inside the Jefferson City limits, about one mile from Carson-Newman University and one mile from Walmart. If you want a home where the big projects are already finished, start here. In the past 12 months, the sellers updated almost everything you'd want to tackle yourself: luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, a new kitchen with new cabinets, countertops, and stainless steel appliances, remodeled bathrooms, fresh paint inside and out, a new front door, updated light fixtures, and a new water heater. You move in and start living instead of renovating. The layout is simple and easy to live in. Your front door opens into a bright living room that flows into a formal dining room, a great spot for Sunday dinners or game night. The kitchen includes a pantry and a laundry area. The primary bedroom has its own half bath, and two more bedrooms share a full hall bath. One of those bedrooms makes a comfortable home office, guest room, or hobby space. Outside, the 0.39-acre lot gives you a wide, grassy front yard and room out back for a garden, a fire pit, or a dog to run. The attached one-car garage gives you covered parking plus space for a workbench, tools, or a motorcycle. Who is this home for? First-time buyers ready to stop renting. Anyone wanting one-floor living without stairs. Carson-Newman faculty and staff who want a quick commute. Investors looking for a move-in ready rental close to campus, where student housing stays in demand. Living inside city limits means city services and short trips for groceries, dining, and errands.

Enjoy the year-round lake view from the porch of your new property. Just don't burn the burgers while you're grilling! Lol! This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom log cabin home is a perfect getaway equipped with all home amenities in Dandridge, TN. The attached carport is great for cars, boats, 4-wheelers, fishing rods and whatever you need to live your best lake life. Bring your pets, bring your family, bring your co-workers... bring whoever you might want to enjoy a cup of coffee with overlooking a beautiful mountainous, East Tennessee sunrise. Remember to bring your hammer too... this property does need a bit of TLC. The bathroom on the lower level has roots grown into the plumbing and will need new piping to connect to the septic system. As far as I know, the septic is in great shape. The only problem is the pipes going from the house to the septic system. Once you fix the plumbing- this will be a magnificent second home or rental for your portfolio! This property is being sold AS IS. I'm not sure if anything else needs to be repaired or replaced. Ready for some GOOD news? We are willing to OWNER FINANCE to a qualified Buyer. 25% down, 30 year amortization with a 5 year balloon depending on credit score and past real estate experience. 9% interest for qualifying Buyers. OR MAKE US A BETTER OFFER! This location is MINUTES away from Douglas Lake. We have a private, community boat launch just around the corner! Thanks!
