'True Log Home on 1.53 Acres in Townsend-Distinctive Character with Residential & Office Potential!'
Originally built as a model log home and currently used as a real estate sales office, this distinctive two-story true log home offers a rare opportunity in Townsend. Situated on approximately 1.53 acres, the property combines authentic log-home character with a highly visible location and a layout that offers possibilities for residential or permitted commercial sales-office use.
Step inside and the craftsmanship immediately takes center stage. Soaring wood ceilings, exposed beams, hardwood floors and custom branch-style railings create an impressive lodge-inspired interior. A dramatic stone fireplace anchors the main living area, while large windows bring in abundant natural light and showcase the wooded surroundings. The open upper-level loft overlooks the main living space and adds to the home's unique architectural character.
The floor plan includes 3 bedrooms, 1½ baths and a loft area, along with flexible spaces that can transition from the property's current office configuration back to residential use. The kitchen is open to the main living area, while multiple exterior doors provide access to the deck and screened porch, extending the usable space outdoors.
Outside, the combination of mature trees and open lawn complements the rustic character of the home. The property also features an existing business sign with excellent road visibility, an added benefit for its current permitted sales-office use.
Located in Townsend, known as the Peaceful Side of the Smokies, you can watch the scenic Little River meander as it flows beneath Townsend's historic swinging bridge. The property is just 3 miles from the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, yet convenient to Maryville, shopping and medical facilities and the Knoxville Airport.
This property is zoned residential with sales-office use permitted.
