About 1312 Sweetwater Rd

Walk through video available. There are 2 septic tanks on the property. There is an additional 2 bedroom 750 gallon septic tank located on an included parcel for 1271 Sweetwater Road. Private One-Level Ranch Cabin on 13 Acres with Stream and Wildlife Built in 2023, this modern, one-level cabin sits on a spacious 13-acre property with privacy in every direction. Set back on a private drive, this 768-square-foot custom cabin isn't visible from the street or neighboring homes, providing the quiet and seclusion you want for a personal retreat or vacation rental business. Inside, you'll find durable Arcadia select hardwood flooring, clear-coated tongue and groove pine walls, and black walnut trim, combining practicality with a rustic look. The main living area features a stack stone fireplace with a slate ceramic hearth and wood-burning stove, adding warmth and character to the home. The kitchen is designed with KraftMaid hickory cabinets, soft-close features, and an Off-Grid Classic Retro propane range in Marshmallow White. High, 9-foot ceilings give the interior an open, roomy feel, while custom lighting and ceiling fans in each room ensure a comfortable atmosphere year-round. Outside, two large covered porches—one in the front and one in the back—are built with TimberTech decking, which is resistant to fading and wear. The custom cedar shutters add a thoughtful touch to the exterior's rustic look. Just below the cabin, a private stream runs through the property, offering a prime spot for fishing and a peaceful setting for outdoor activities. This land, rich with wildlife like deer and turkey, is ideal for those interested in hunting, hiking, or simply enjoying the outdoors. With 13 acres of unrestricted land, there's also great potential for future development, such as adding additional cabins or structures for a vacation rental business. Located just 10 minutes from I-40, the property provides a rare blend of seclusion and accessibility to nearby amenities, with public water available at the road for easy expansion options. Just 35 minutes to Sevierville, 30 minutes to Morristown, Jefferson County, and Dandridge Tennessee. Plan your visit to explore the possibilities this unique property has to offer!
