No expense was spared on updates by this homeowner bringing this home into the 21st century w/ modern conveniences and comfort, while maintaining its original historic charm. Feeling more like new construction, this home is perfectly located within walking or biking distance to downtown Kingsport. Perhaps you have heard of FunFest? If not, you will! This distinct homeowner reconfigured access to lower level bedrooms creating separation from the main living areas. French doors have been added allowing natural light and al fresco dining on the new entertainment worthy deck, complete with an covered portion and privacy wall. Other notable upgrades include appliances, main level bathroom renovation, removal of popcorn ceilings, recessed lighting (lighting throughout), gas logs, custom blinds, an added ramp for convenience and new insulation in the attic for heating and cooling efficiency. A new dual heat pump was added in 2022, new roof and siding in 2016 as well as electrical and plumbing updates/additions and a concrete parking pad / carport complete with a privacy fence to name a few. The upstairs has a spa worthy bathroom and an additional bedroom, ideal the primary suite, private dressing room or office space. This home also features a full-size walk out unfinished basement ideal for storage or a workshop, while allowing the option to finish the space to suit your needs. A large fenced in yard has ample space for your pets, gardening needs or to add a pool. The previous owner (relative) added a lower deck that is hot tub ready! Adventure awaits with a plethora of festivals, live music events, breweries, hiking, biking, fishing, boating, vineyards and more. Did I mention Kingsport is just a little over 1.5 hr to Gatlinburg and an hour(ish) drive to Asheville and NC ski slopes? The closest beach is less than a six hour drive! What are you waiting on? Make northeast Tennessee, HOME!
