The Space

This home has been chockful of love and commitment over the past few years.  Secure, private; wonderful neighbors and in a great location.

My home is a completely remodeled split level with high quality LVP throughout.  There are four bedrooms and two and a half baths, the half bath/laundry located on the bottom (garage) level.  I'm using the large basement as a game room/fourth bedroom with a twin bed with a 10" gel mattress. A blow-up queen size mattress with sheets is also tucked in the closet to easily sleep 10 in total.  A mini split was installed Aug '25 to make for comfort year-round!  New Pella sliding glass doors to get to the huge shaded concrete patio with a gentle hanging cushioned swing, a porch style swing, four swivel rocking chairs, and a relaxing, colorful, ultra comfortable Yellowtree hammock.  A glass door fridge/cooler will keep your drinks nice and cold.  Plenty of outdoor games behind the GAME OVER blanket with ladder golf, tiki toss, cornhole, ring toss, and a giant Connect 4, and a badminton/volleyball net that takes two people and a few minutes to set up. Sit at the propane fire pit table with hot lava rocks on chilly nights with a warm drink.  Pit Boss pellet grill is located on the upper deck; I use an extension cord and the sunroom floor outlets to power it.  Recently added as of March 2023 is a cocktail pool, 8' round and 2' deep with a sand filter.  Perfect to float and cool off in, safe and fun for kids of almost any age to play in! I've turned my backyard into an area that's gorgeous and functional, spending hours out there every day.  A 32 inch smart TV is up as well from spring through fall.  Feel free to help yourself to the huge blackberries from the bush I planted in spring '23; they're sweet and delicious and produce an abundance of fruit from mid-June through early October. Solar lights surround you at night, adding to the tropical feel.

It's a beautiful .4 acre yard, the back FULLY fenced in, perfectly flat and nicely landscaped with a large garden area full of flowers.  On the main level of the house, open concept kitchen with granite counters and newly painted, sparkling white cabinets.  All the typical gadgets and gizmos, plus a Sonic-esque ice maker that's great for parties; who doesn't love the soft ice!  Spacious master bedroom with en suite, along with two other bedrooms that share a hall bath; both baths have a large walk-in shower. 

Connecting to the dining room is an three wall glass sunroom.  It has its own mini split AC system installed as of September 2022; it heats and cools to whatever it's set to, getting to your preferred temp in minutes.  The sunroom leads to the deck with an outdoor couch, chairs, and large umbrella, with virtually complete privacy looking over the lush backyard. 

Game room consists of smart TV, Pac-Man Arcade1Up 12 in 1 machine with a ton of fun 1980s games, an electronic Sharper Image putting mat, light up dartboard, and PlayStation 2 with dozens of options provided to try your hand at, plus a mini fridge.  

Master bed has a King firm Beautyrest mattress; the kids' room has a twin over full bunk set with 8 inch gel mattresses on each.  Regular guest room has a full sized bed with plush mattress topper.   All rooms have a smart TV.  99% blackout curtains are in the master and main guest room for a restful night's sleep.

I am pet-friendly, even cats would be welcome, so long as they're litter box trained.  For dogs, I have a kiddie pool and a hose for the hot days, and mine loves the sunroom in the cooler months with the sun beating in.  Plenty of treats and toys as well.
 
I also work from home, which means I have really fast internet, with a nice desk and ability to connect directly to the net. 

*Smoking is okay, but only outside.*

**Major holidays of Thanksgiving and Christmas will be considered by written request only, as I depend heavily on others during that time!**

*** For Globe exchanges, as I do my own quite thorough cleaning, a tiered system, based on my time and the fact this is my only home, will be used for a fee.  $50 for two people, $75 for up to four, and $100 for five and up.

Guest Access

There are two floors, split level house.  Parking can be done off street or in the extra roomy driveway.  Will make my garage/opener available for longer stays.

Neighbourhood

Walking and bike friendly, great for exercise and very quiet.  I'm on a cul-de-sac, which reduces car and people noise.

Getting to my home

TYS airport is about 30 minutes away.  I'm very central to many southeastern/midwestern states, using interstates 40, 75, 275, and 81.

Nearest airport

McGhee Tyson is our main airport.

Getting Around

You'll need a car to get most places, but for recreational purposes, I have very nice roads in my neighborhood and several parks within a few miles for exercise and strolling/biking.
