Discover a true treasure in Crossville, Tennessee. This historic stone farmhouse, originally constructed by the U.S. Army on a 250-acre estate, is now nestled on 5.6 acres of serene, partially wooded land. The property's story dates back to 1963 when a high-ranking U.S. Army official, after retiring from the Korean War, chose this site in a unique way—by blindfolding himself and throwing a dart at a map, which landed on this very property. Shortly after moving in, he was called back to serve in the Vietnam War, leaving behind a legacy that still lingers. Since then, the home has passed through the hands of several local families, including one deeply connected to the area's vibrant music scene, further enriching its history. The 5-bedroom, 3-bath residence exudes a harmonious blend of historic allure and modern elegance. Thoughtfully renovated to elevate its timeless charm, the home features the original hardwood flooring in most living areas, complemented by a stone entrance, and ceramic and porcelain tile in other spaces. Only one large downstairs bedroom features LVP flooring, preserving the home's classic character. Stylish shiplap accents enhance its contemporary farmhouse appeal. Each bathroom has been extensively renovated, showcasing elegant tile finishes. The home features a range of high-end upgrades, including sleek stainless-steel appliances, stunning leathered granite countertops, and a fully updated HVAC system. Both the plumbing and electrical systems have been modernized to meet contemporary standards, while two high-efficiency tankless water heaters provide endless comfort and convenience. Spanning 2,830 square feet, this home is perfectly suited for both relaxed living and gracious entertaining. The grand wood-burning stone fireplace anchors the heart of the home, while the side patio, accessible through sliding doors, features an outdoor stove ideal for hosting unforgettable gatherings while stargazing. The expansive backyard patio offers sweeping views of the property's vast acreage, where wild turkeys and deer are frequent visitors, creating a serene escape from the everyday. Situated on a dead-end road, this property provides ample road frontage, dual access points, and beautiful seasonal mountain views, combining the ultimate in privacy with convenience. This unique estate offers the rare opportunity to enjoy a lifestyle that seamlessly marries the rich history of a bygone era with the modern updates of today, making it a standout in the Crossville market. Living in Crossville means embracing a lifestyle rooted in outdoor adventure, rich culture, and scenic beauty. Known as the 'Golf Capital of Tennessee,' Crossville boasts an array of championship courses. Residents are surrounded by natural wonders like Cumberland Mountain State Park & Fall Creek Falls, offering endless opportunities for hiking, fishing, and camping. The Cumberland Homesteads and its iconic Tower Museum offer a glimpse into the area's unique role during the New Deal era, while the Cumberland County Playhouse provides year-round entertainment for those who appreciate the arts.
