About this home

Welcome to River Island Plantation, one of East Tennessee's premier custom-home communities, where upscale living meets the natural beauty of the French Broad River Valley. Adjacent to Seven Islands State Birding Park and surrounded by mountain views, wildlife, and open countryside, this exceptional Craftsman-style ranch home offers a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Mornings often begin with fog rising from the French Broad River while the mountains emerge beyond the horizon. The pictures don't do the panoramic mountain view justice as the morning fog coming off the river was competing for attention at the time pictures were taken. Come see for yourself. Deer wander through the neighborhood. Wild turkeys can be heard in the distance. Yet despite the peaceful setting, Knoxville, Sevierville, shopping, dining, healthcare, and recreation are all within easy reach. Perched on a corner lot, the home makes an immediate impression with timeless Craftsman architecture featuring board-and-batten siding, a brick skirt, black gutters, substantial wood porch posts, recessed lighting, and an inviting covered front porch. Inside, soaring 10' ceilings, oversized windows, 8' transition openings, and abundant natural light create a sense of elegance and openness throughout. Designed for true main-level living, the thoughtfully crafted split-bedroom floor plan offers privacy, comfort, and exceptional functionality. The living room is anchored by a striking gas fireplace with custom built-ins, quartz surfaces, and large windows that frame the surrounding landscape. At the heart of the home, the chef-inspired kitchen combines beauty and practicality with quartz countertops, a large island with seating and storage, 42-inch cabinetry, extensive drawer space, tile backsplash, coffee bar, farmhouse sink with mountain views, walk-in pantry, and premium KitchenAid appliances, including a recently installed $4000 refrigerator. The screened rear porch may become your favorite part of the house. Featuring a tongue-and-groove ceiling and recessed lighting, it provides the perfect setting to enjoy morning coffee as river fog drifts through the valley or unwind while watching spectacular mountain sunsets. The spacious owner's suite features a tray ceiling, custom window treatments, and a luxurious bath with dual quartz vanities, soaking tub, tiled walk-in shower, private water closet, linen storage, and an oversized walk-in closet. Secondary bedrooms are generously sized, three offer walk-in closets, and the flex room can easily serve as a 5th bedroom, office, fitness room, or media space. Above the garage, a private suite with a full bath and walk-in closet creates ideal accommodations for guests, multigenerational living, or a private workspace. The current owners believed this would be their forever home and invested accordingly, adding the screened porch, custom window screens, new refrigerator, fireplace mirrors, cellular shades, landscaping improvements, five maple trees, garage storage, lawn enhancements, and a recent exterior soft wash. An unexpected work relocation now creates a rare opportunity for the next owner. Beyond the home, residents enjoy easy access to Seven Islands State Birding Park's walking trails, wildlife viewing, river access, and scenic riverside loop, as well as nearby Island Pointe Golf Club. The rapidly growing Kodak area continues to attract buyers seeking the perfect balance of natural beauty, convenience, and proximity to Knoxville, Sevierville, and the Great Smoky Mountains. KUB Fiber Internet is available. For buyers seeking luxury without sacrificing privacy, nature, or convenience, this is more than a beautiful home... its a front-row seat to one of East Tennessee's most extraordinary lifestyles.
