Debuting on the market for the very first time, this mountain sanctuary offers a rare opportunity to own 45 pristine acres bordering over 16,000 acres of protected Wildlife Management Area. Surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of Pigeon Mountain and Lookout Mountain, part of the renowned Cumberland Plateau, this generational property blends luxury living with unmatched access to nature. The 4,728 sq ft custom home boasts soaring vaulted and tongue-and-groove ceilings, a spacious kitchen with a large island, and multiple gathering spaces, including a great room with a stone fireplace. The main-level owner's suite features his-and-her walk-in closets, a tiled shower, and private access to the screened front porches panoramic views, and the screened back porch with its own fireplace. In total, the home features four fireplaces — in the great room, the screened back porch, the primary suite, and the downstairs living area — offering warm ambiance throughout. The daylight walkout basement offers another 2,364 sq ft of versatile living and entertainment space. On the main level, the media room hides a secret ''Christmas Tree Room'' cleverly concealed behind a rolling bookshelf — a unique and whimsical touch that makes holiday decorating a breeze. Outdoors, you'll find two ponds, a running creek, abundant wildlife (deer, turkey, and more), and a massive workshop with electricity and lean-to storage on both sides. The property's history runs deep — the owner has even discovered artifacts and arrowheads here. Adventure is never far away — you're just minutes from three state parks, with opportunities for hiking, kayaking, fishing, hunting, cave exploration, and skydiving. Only 15 minutes from the internationally acclaimed McLemore Golf Resort, 30 minutes from Chattanooga, 1 hour 45 minutes from Atlanta, and 2.5 hours from Birmingham. This is more than a home — it's a lifestyle, a retreat, and an heirloom property that will be cherished for generations.
