608 Sam Heim Road, Rutledge, TN 37861

One of the finest views of Cherokee Lake can be found from standing on the deck of this newly constructed home. The home sits on a 1.04 acre bluff, which makes unobstructed views of Cherokee Lake visible the entire year. Gorgeous sunrises to the left of the deck. Gorgeous sunsets to the right of the deck. And straight ahead you can view the Great Smoky Mountains! The home was built, in 2022, as a personal 1,300 square foot lake getaway by the owner who happens to be a builder. He has now added a completely new wing to the house, expanding it to a full-sized 2,227 square foot three-bedroom, two-bathroom home. A large wrap around deck has been added to take in the views. As mentioned, sunrises, sunsets, the main channel of Cherokee Lake, and the Great Smoky Mountains, can all be viewed from the deck. With very nice views from the main living area and bedrooms as well. As you enter the house, all the square footage of the living space is on one level. No stairs to climb. Great news for folks that don't like to climb steps. The deck is the only area of the house that has steps. And a sidewalk has been added for easy access into the home from the rear. Limited photos of the inside of the home are being displayed as the home is actively undergoing construction, and the seller is currently residing in the home to oversee the finishing work. A large concrete driveway has also been added. There is plenty of extra parking for a boat and/or RV. As well as a newly built detached garage, large enough for a pickup truck. There is no HOA (short-term rentals are allowed) in this community, and city water is onsite. No well to fool with. Plus, high-speed fiber internet is available, allowing you to work from home and/or stream all your favorite shows without delay. This place is ideal as a home to live in, as a weekend getaway, or as a vacation rental. You choose. Located in Grainger County, with its scenic farmland but close to everything! Grainger County Park, with its public boat ramps, is 3 minutes away. Cherokee Dam, with year-round facilities for unloading your boat, grilling stations, a public beach, restrooms, pavilion, and a campground, for friends and families that may want to visit in their campers, is within 7 minutes. See accompanying photos. Jefferson Memorial Hospital, a Four-Star nationally ranked health care provider, Walmart, and Lowe's are all within a 15-minute drive. And, if you work in Knoxville, but don't want to live in a larger city, with its traffic issues, this home is 36 miles from Knoxville. A home site with views like this would cost you twice as much in Knoxville. In fact, there is a home down the street that just sold for $915,000. Cherokee Lake views, one acre of land, no HOA, rural farmland, close to town, newer home, at a great price. This home checks all the boxes! Live the Cherokee Lake Life!
