Remarks:
Some homes are built for resale. Others are built for retirement. Very few are built by someone who spent a lifetime in the construction industry, understood every system behind the walls, and intended to live there forever. The owner, a former builder and former owner of one of the region’s most respected HVAC companies, designed and constructed this residence as his personal forever home. Every decision—from the foundation and insulation to the mechanical systems and lake access—was made with longevity, comfort, efficiency, and ease of ownership in mind. Nestled along Fontana Lake, the property offers a unique combination of quality construction, practical luxury, and waterfront enjoyment. This home experiences very little boat traffic and as a result is a peaceful setting where the water remains inviting and accessible. The home offers approx 4,000 heated square feet and is currently configured as four bedrooms plus a loft. The main level features a spacious primary suite, an additional guest bedroom, and a separate full bath, allowing for comfortable main-level living. Upstairs, the loft serves as a flexible space for an office, overflow sleeping area, or studio and has a half bath. The lower level expands the home’s versatility with two bedrooms, a full bath, fitness room, mud room, and additional storage space. Septic permit for 3 bedrooms. Heated floors throughout the lower level provide exceptional comfort year-round. What truly separates this property from many luxury homes is what lies beneath the surface. The foundation was built with additional reinforcement. The exterior is clad entirely in Hardie Board siding and soffits for long-term durability and low maintenance. Spray-foam insulation was installed throughout the structure, improving comfort while reducing energy consumption. The owner engineered and installed a sophisticated three-zone HVAC system with smartphone controls and outside-air circulation for enhanced efficiency and indoor air quality. Despite the home’s size, the owner reports the highest monthly power bill has been approximately $182. Throughout the home, quality finishes continue the theme of intentional construction. Energy-efficient windows fill the interior with natural light, while Hunter Douglas window treatments provide privacy and comfort. The kitchen features Bosch appliances, including an induction cooktop and quiet dishwasher. A water purification system, while the well produces more than 40 gallons per minute. The seller plans to install a holding tank and provide a shared well agreement for the adjacent home currently under construction. Outdoor living was designed with the same level of thoughtfulness. The upper covered deck offers a private retreat for enjoying mountain mornings, lake views, and cool evening breezes. The lower deck is accessible from both the interior and exterior of the home, making it convenient for guests returning from the water. A paved circular driveway provides easy arrival, departure, and ample parking. A detached two-car garage complements the additional lower-level garage and storage area, offering plenty of room for vehicles, boats, lake toys, tools, and outdoor equipment. The walk to the water is one of the property’s most appealing advantages. Unlike many mountain lakefront homes where access can be steep and challenging, the path to the shoreline is gentle, walkable, and suitable for side-by-side access. TVA approval is already in place for an 8’x12’ wooden dock landing. The current dock system is mounted on wheels and designed to adapt to seasonal water levels. Additional outdoor features include a grilling area, firepit, and landscaping. For buyers seeking a lakefront home, this offers something increasingly difficult to find: a residence built not for resale, but to satisfy the exacting standards of the person who intended to spend the rest of his life there.
