Tucked into a private, green setting with beautiful mountain views, this custom-built brick home offers the best of both worlds--peaceful country living while still being convenient to Johnson City. Surrounded by mature trees and natural scenery, the property feels quiet and removed without putting you far from town, and you'll only pay city taxes. Inside, the home is full of custom details you don't often find, including 3/4-inch tongue-and-groove ash hardwood floors milled by the owner from trees personally selected from the property. The kitchen features Corian countertops, Kohler fixtures, and a walk-in pantry, along with cedar-lined closets, a separate laundry room, and a step-free tiled primary shower. The bright sunroom is a standout space, complete with a Buck wood stove and views of the surrounding greenery. Recent updates include a new shingle roof, new HVAC, new tankless water heater, LED lighting, fresh paint, and a new front porch deck and railing. Downstairs, the basement offers a finished bedroom and full bathroom, along with an attached single-car lower garage. The main level also includes a two-car attached garage and dual-fuel heat. This is a home with real character--private, well-built, surrounded by nature, and still close enough to Johnson City for everyday convenience. All information deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Buyer and buyer's agent to verify all information.
