Look no further for peace and serenity on the river......YOU FOUND IT! This Appalachian log home features a wrap around porch which is the perfect place to enjoy the sights, such as eagles fishing, and sounds of waterside living just steps from the Holston River, recognized as one of Tennessee's premier fly fishing destinations that is still a secret of sorts. Public access is extremely limited on this river, unless you are a river front land owner with access, which in turn limits the number of anglers you'll see. Please go to www.1398HolstonShores.com/mls for all the information on an easy to navigate, and easy to share, single property website!

This river front log home is offered complete with all furnishings and decor!

You can't have the perfect residence along the Holston River without ample outdoor entertainment or relaxation areas and this home does not disappoint. The property features an "over the water" 28' x 16' deck with a fantastic view of Smoky Shoals on the Holston plus views up and down river as well. This deck features composite deck flooring and rail tops for low maintenance. .Midway between the deck and rear covered porch is a flagstone landing with fire pit. Along the left riverfront is a paver patio set close to the water made possible by a custom retaining wall. The left side property line actually extends beyond the privacy fence and runs from the center of the jetty (which provides a nice water break for enjoying a dip in the river) in a direct line all the way to Holston Shores Dr.

Now to decide between the over water deck or covered porches. There are approximately 270' of 8' wide covered porches that just about circle the house giving an opportunity to enjoy shade, or cover from the weather, at any time of the day. Enjoy the rocking chairs or hammock as you listen to the water gently moving downstream on the river!

Another plus for this property is the 3-car detached garage and it's attached 2-car/camper carport plus a large workshop and 4-dog kennel with outdoor runs. Plenty of room for pets and outdoor motorized toys or water craft such as canoes and kayaks.

As if all of that weren't enough, the river seals the deal! This property, with rare easy water access, is situated on a very special place between Nance Island and Smoky Island and directly in front of Smoky Shoals. According to the outfitter Hook and Bullet: "Whether you're spinning or bait casting your chances of getting a bite here are good. So grab your favorite fly fishing rod and reel, and head out to Smoky Shoals." R&R Fly Fishing says "Most trout are in the range of 123, but a few over 203 are caught every season. Rainbow and brown trout are common and smallmouth bass." You can see eagles flying here or sitting in the trees across the river!

The Holston's close proximity to Knoxville, Sevierville, Gatlinburg, and the Pigeon Forge areas provide additional activities for your visiting family and friends. Area attractions range widely from Dollywood, water parks, Cherokee Lake, Douglas Lake etc. not to mention the Smoky Mountain National Park. Bring your canoes, kayaks, fishing gear, etc. and begin experiencing the pace of life along the Holston river in beautiful East Tennessee!
