'True Log Home on 1.53 Acres in Townsend-Distinctive Character with Residential & Office Potential!' Originally built as a model log home and currently used as a real estate sales office, this distinctive two-story true log home offers a rare opportunity in Townsend. Situated on approximately 1.53 acres, the property combines authentic log-home character with a highly visible location and a layout that offers possibilities for residential or permitted commercial sales-office use. Step inside and the craftsmanship immediately takes center stage. Soaring wood ceilings, exposed beams, hardwood floors and custom branch-style railings create an impressive lodge-inspired interior. A dramatic stone fireplace anchors the main living area, while large windows bring in abundant natural light and showcase the wooded surroundings. The open upper-level loft overlooks the main living space and adds to the home's unique architectural character. The floor plan includes 3 bedrooms, 1½ baths and a loft area, along with flexible spaces that can transition from the property's current office configuration back to residential use. The kitchen is open to the main living area, while multiple exterior doors provide access to the deck and screened porch, extending the usable space outdoors. Outside, the combination of mature trees and open lawn complements the rustic character of the home. The property also features an existing business sign with excellent road visibility, an added benefit for its current permitted sales-office use. Located in Townsend, known as the Peaceful Side of the Smokies, you can watch the scenic Little River meander as it flows beneath Townsend's historic swinging bridge. The property is just 3 miles from the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, yet convenient to Maryville, shopping and medical facilities and the Knoxville Airport. This property is zoned residential with sales-office use permitted. Whether envisioned as a residence or continued within its permitted office use, this is a property that stands apart from the ordinary. Schedule your private showing and experience the craftsmanship and character in person!
Automated home estimates are a starting point, not a final answer. National websites do not know if your roof is five years old or twenty-five. They do not understand the value of a good piece of land in East Tennessee. At Real Estate Concepts, we combine instant data with actual local expertise to give you a valuation you can trust.
Step 1: Tell us your address. Fill in the form — name, phone, email, and your property address.
Step 2: A local expert personally checks it. The number you see right away is your first-look value from a computer. Then one of our local East Tennessee experts personally checks it against real sold homes near you — the comps an algorithm can't weigh, like condition, updates, and your street. That personal check is the CMA.
Step 3: We talk through the real number. We'll walk you through what your home would actually sell for and what we'd do to get it — no obligation, and if the timing's wrong, we'll say so.
Q: How is this different from a standard online estimate?
A: Speed and accuracy. You get immediate data from our system, backed up by a manual review from a local expert who knows the area roads and market trends.
Q: Is there a fee for this service?
A: No. We provide free valuations as a service to our East Tennessee community. There is no obligation to list with us.
Q: What areas do you cover?
A: Our agents live and work across East Tennessee, covering Morgan, Roane, Anderson, Scott, Claiborne, and Grainger counties and beyond.
Q: Do you have to visit my property in person?
A: Not for the initial valuation. We can run the numbers based on public records and recent local sales. In-person visits are available if you want a highly precise listing price.
