Set on 5.3 private, wooded acres in the rolling hills of Riceville, Tennessee, this beautifully maintained and spacious custom ranch--with a full basement adding nearly 1,000 square feet of additional living potential--delivers the space, privacy, and craftsmanship that East Tennessee buyers rarely find under one roof. From the stone-accented covered front porch glowing warmly at dusk to the tree-lined backyard stretching into the distance, every angle of this property feels like coming home. Step inside to gleaming hardwood floors that flow across the open main level, leading you toward a showpiece kitchen built for the way families truly live. Extensive maple cabinetry, a center island, built-in oven/microwave/warmer and an electric cooktop are complemented by large bay windows opening to the lush private acreage beyond. The master suite offers a true retreat: tray ceiling, garden tub, walk-in shower, double vanity, and generous walk-in closets. On the other side of the home, two large bedrooms and a thoughtfully designed handicap-accessible bathroom serves every need. The finished basement expands your options limitlessly--two additional bedrooms or offices, a media room or a home gym--plus a basement two-car garage and a main-level one-car garage. A screened back porch and open deck extend your living space outdoors, whether savoring a Tennessee sunrise over your private acreage or entertaining under the summer stars. A large, 24 x 32-foot, pole barn stands ready for farm equipment, recreational vehicles, boats, or livestock. A whole-house water filtration system and professionally encapsulated crawl space round out a home that has been thoughtfully cared for. Smoke-free and pet-free since the day it was built--a genuine clean slate in peaceful McMinn County, TN. Athens, Cleveland, and I-75 are all minutes from your door.
