Welcome to a rare find that truly lets you live, work, or do both, all wrapped up in an utterly charming, worry-free ''dollhouse'' on just over half an acre. Zoned for neighborhood commercial or residential use, this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers incredible flexibility while still feeling warm, welcoming, and unmistakably like home.
Step inside and everything feels fresh, clean, and brand new. The home has been thoughtfully updated with all new wiring, plumbing, insulation, drywall, lighting, flooring, kitchen, granite countertops, vanities, fixtures, and paint (inside and out), creating a move-in-ready space designed for peace of mind. The kitchen steals the show, featuring gorgeous finishes, abundant light, and a fantastic walk-in pantry, perfect for everyday living or hosting friends, family, or clients with ease.
Multiple outdoor living spaces extend the charm even further, including a screened-in porch right off the kitchen, ideal for morning coffee or winding down after work, plus a large open deck for entertaining, gardening breaks, or simply enjoying the space around you. Mature trees and the home's unique L-shaped lot create a partial separation from the road, giving you room to breathe while still offering excellent visibility and access.
The basement level, accessible from outside and with a separate driveway, includes a one-car garage and substantial storage space with a concrete floor, which is ideal for a workshop, hobby area, business storage, or creative use with a little vision. The front driveway access from both Strawberry Plains Pike and Lora Lane adds convenience and flexibility.
Location is a major advantage: enjoy easy I-40 access, quick commutes to Knoxville and Kodak, proximity to Forks of the River employment, and nearby access to Holston and French Broad Rivers for kayaking and fishing. A popular soccer park and walking trails are just down the road, along with plenty of dining and everyday conveniences. Seven Islands Birding Park is closeby as well.
Best of all, this property offers something increasingly hard to find: no HOA, no restrictions, low taxes, and space to enjoy your yard, garden, or business ideas without being boxed into a subdivision. Located in a USDA-eligible area, buyers may qualify for special financing options. Ask your lender for details.
This is easy, flexible living at its best: a home that feels good the moment you walk in, with the freedom to truly make it your own.
