123 Reservoir Rd Norris, TN 37828

Listing details for 123 Reservoir Rd, Norris, TN 37828 : Welcome to 123 Reservoir Road where you can live in the woods within the city limits of Norris! This one level ranch home is a nature-lover's paradise. Situated on over 2 mostly wooded acres, it offers its residents near total privacy. With gleaming maple floors throughout and plenty of wood windows letting the light in, the feel is open and airy. The ample common areas of the kitchen/den and living room/dining room- both of which spill out via French doors onto the screened in porch- are ideal for entertaining guests. The kitchen is an absolute joy to use with its quartz countertops, plentiful cabinets, voluminous pantry space, and island suitable for casual dining. Opening up from the kitchen, the den is a fabulous space to hang out with its heart of pine paneling and wood stove with stack stone surround and pine mantle. A couple of stand-out features regarding the stove: there is a wood box that is loaded from the utility room off of the garage, keeping you from hauling wood through the house. Also, the heat from the stove is actually piped through the duct system to be distributed throughout the house! Conveniently, there is a woodshed filled with seasoned hardwood awaiting the new owners. In more temperate times of year, the screened in porch is the perfect place to be to sip a cool beverage and watch the wildlife. The home has abundant storage space, with numerous closets (all shelved), shelving and cabinets in the garage, a very dry 'crawlspace' that you can actually walk into, and dry space for your outdoor tools, etc. under the screened in porch. The yard is very low maintenance, being covered in moss- no mower required! In front of the house are three raised organic garden beds ready for planting. Of course, included with all this you get the incredibly charming town of Norris and all the wonders that surround it. Paramount of these wonders is the Norris Watershed, a 2,400 acre sanctuary of nature with miles and miles of trails to explore. The Watershed is actually directly adjacent to this property, across Reservoir Hill Road! Additionally, the Clinch River and Norris Lake provide world class fishing and boating with multiple public access ramps and marinas minutes away. With easy access to I-75, downtown Knoxville is at hand in about 25 minutes. If you don't already know, the City of Norris is an absolute treasure. Created by TVA in a European Garden Community design, the streets flow with the contours of the land with houses placed just so and sidewalks everywhere, all leading to the town center with its post office, library, restaurants, etc. and the Norris Commons where the town comes together for Norris Day (July 4), Winter Festival, summer Concerts on the Commons, farmers market, etc. Check out cityofnorris.com for more info. It won't take long to see why residents say the best thing about living in Norris is... living in Norris!
