About this home

Experience unmatched privacy and elevated mountain living on this remarkable 193-acre East Tennessee estate, accessed by a mile-long private drive with underground utilities. Built in 2019, the nearly 4,000 sq. ft. residence showcases intentional design and custom craftsmanship throughout, with 7-inch reclaimed hardwood floors, natural stone accents, arched iron entry doors, and curated finishes such as granite countertops, copper sinks, and custom cabinetry that create a cohesive, high-end feel. The main kitchen is both functional and striking, appointed with Wolf appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, custom brick backsplash, a generous island with seating, walk-in pantry, and tongue-and-groove beam ceilings designed to anchor the home's gathering spaces. The lower level is thoughtfully finished to function as a private extension of the home, featuring a second full kitchen, living area with fireplace, three bedrooms, and an office, with direct walk-out access to a covered patio and grounds. Throughout the home, three wood-burning fireplaces - two interior and one exterior - add warmth and character, while seven double sliding doors with remote blinds frame the surrounding landscape and open to over 3,000 sq. ft. of covered terrace, deck, and patio space. The primary suite is positioned to capture the views, offering private deck access, along with a custom tiled walk-in shower, granite vanity, and walk-in closet. Additional features include a custom hardwood staircase, Aqua Pure water purification system, 500-gallon underground propane tank, tankless water heater, dual Trane HVAC systems, LED lighting, integrated surveillance, and professionally designed landscaping with a circular drive. The exterior blends custom log siding with stonework, complementing the natural setting. A separate 400 sq. ft. guest cabin reflects the same level of quality, complete with hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, hardwood countertops, copper sinks, spray foam insulation, impact windows, covered porch, tankless water heater, and a Trane mini-split system--ideal for guests or extended stays. A 2,400 sq. ft. Hansen building with engineering drawings, 200-amp service, and impact windows offers flexible use for storage, workshop, or future expansion. The land itself is equally compelling--featuring vineyards, a cross-buck fenced orchard with raised garden beds, established ATV and hiking trails, and multiple elevated build sites with long-range views. A newly prepared 50' x 70' building pad and approximately two cleared acres above the orchard provide additional opportunity for expansion. Total square footage reflects the main residence, guest cabin, and Hansen building.

Whether envisioned as a private retreat, multi-generational estate, or legacy holding, 6999 New Hwy 68 presents a truly distinctive East Tennessee offering.
