About 137 Forester Ln
Nestled on 1.78 secluded acres at the end of a quiet road, this stunning hillside chalet at 137 Forester Lane in historic Jonesborough, TN offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern updates. Featuring over 1,500 sq ft of living space, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home includes a beautifully updated kitchen, brand new windows throughout, and both a cozy wood-burning fireplace and a gas fireplace for year-round comfort. Step outside to enjoy over 1,000 sq ft of wraparound decks and porches, surrounded by nothing but nature—you'll listen to birdsong and rustling leaves, not traffic or neighbors. The custom-built outdoor fire pit is not only perfect for gathering under the stars, it's large enough to double as a rotisserie (and has done so deliciously!). The property is also rich with seasonal bounty, including blackberries, raspberries, figs, and blueberries growing right in your own backyard. Just minutes from downtown Jonesborough and 10 minutes to Johnson City—recently named the South's #1 place to move—this retreat is also only 30 minutes from Tri-Cities Airport for easy travel, 1 hour from the Bristol Casino, and 1.5 hours from the Smoky Mountains and Dollywood—close to next-level entertainment. Whether you're searching for a permanent home or a private mountain escape, this property offers a lifestyle that's as flavorful as it is peaceful.
