About this home
Welcome to Lazy Bear Retreat--an exceptional Smoky Mountain cabin perched atop Shell Mountain, one of the area's best-kept secrets! This meticulously maintained and well-built 2016 cabin offers sweeping mountain and valley views extending to Bluff Mountain and Douglas Lake, with the potential for even more mountain views through selective tree trimming/removal. VALUE-ADD POTENTIAL abounds! The oversized double-car garage could potentially be transformed into an indoor pool, expansive game room, indoor pickleball court, or other custom amenity and also has a stairway leading to an approximately 30' x 10' floored space, providing additional future-use potential. Approximately 500 square feet of unfinished basement space provides even more opportunity for a home theatre or game room, and plumbing is already roughed in for a potential additional bathroom. The seller is also leaving flooring materials to complete the unfinished basement space, giving the next owner a head start on bringing their vision to life. Designed for both relaxation and rental appeal, the cabin features covered porches on the main and lower levels--perfect for morning coffee, spectacular sunsets, or enjoying the soothing sound of rain on the metal roof. Two ensuite bedrooms, each with a soaker tub, including one bedroom on the main level, offer comfort and privacy, while kitchen granite countertops, high-speed internet, and a wood-burning fireplace add to the cabin's appeal. Upstairs, you will find an open loft space, providing additional room for guests with a sleeper sofa. Downstairs, you'll find an extra living area, exercise equipment with a view, and games for the whole family. A paved, well-maintained county road provides easy access to the mountaintop, with Sevierville approximately 20 minutes away via major highways. Dollywood and Great Smoky Mountains National Park are approximately 30 minutes away. The fire pit area is a true outdoor retreat, offering spectacular sunset views any evening of the year, as well as mountain views in the background. The seller has an active STR permit, and a passed STR inspection will be provided prior to closing for added peace of mind. Whether you're looking for a proven vacation rental, second home, or private mountain retreat, Lazy Bear Retreat offers the location, views, amenities, and exceptional value-add potential today's buyers are looking for.
