Private Boat Ramp on Lakefront Legacy custom built home of unparalleled quality on Watts Bar Lake.
Nestled along the picturesque shores of Watts Bar Lake in Ten Mile, TN, this exceptional 3400 +/- square foot A-frame home offers more than lakeside living – it’s a testament to meticulous craftsmanship, superior materials, and engineering excellence, all woven into a tapestry of cherished family memories.
Custom built in 1989 by the current owner, who personally supervised every phase of construction, this home stands as a monument to quality and attention to detail.
The property’s rich history began even before the house itself, starting as a beloved recreational lot where the original dock still stands alongside the newer two-slip boathouse. As you approach the home, you’ll immediately notice its striking architectural design and the gently sloping, almost flat, lot that leads to the water’s edge.
The property’s exceptional construction is evident at every turn, from the reinforced foundation – bolstered with extra steel to prevent settling and cracks – to the insulated block cores with optimal energy efficiency in mind. The reinforced flooring provides a solid feel and quiet comfort throughout. Inside, the home offers 4 bedrooms, unfinished bonus room, and 2.5 baths, providing ample room for family and guests – a space that has welcomed extended family, including children and grandchildren, for 25 years of joyous gatherings. Premium Pella windows throughout, not only frame stunning views, but also offer testament to the home’s superior build quality.
The heart of this lakefront haven is its breathtaking views, visible from nearly every room through the expansive Pella windows that invite the outside in. The open concept living areas, which have hosted countless family celebrations, create a perfect flow for entertaining or relaxing while soaking in the serene lake vistas.
Beneath the surface, this home is a powerhouse of convenience and self sufficiency. A robust electrical system provides ample power for all your needs, while two separate septic systems provide peace of mind. Climate control is a breeze with three HVAC units, allowing for precise temperature management throughout the home.
For those seeking energy independence or a simply cozy alternative, a high-quality Yotul stove stands ready to warm the main and upper floors with efficient heat. This stove isn’t merely a charming feature – it’s a practical solution for ”off the grid” living in cold weather, offering the option to save on energy costs or maintain comfort in unexpected situations.
Outdoor enthusiasts and water lovers will find paradise in the meticulously designed exterior spaces. A fortress-like seawall system features a gently curving walkway, while a reinforced hillside retaining wall ensures lasting stability. The lawn, covered in low-maintenance Centipede grass, is kept lush and green by an in-ground sprinkler system that cleverly draws water directly from the lake. For boating afficionados, this property is a dream come true.
The private two-slip boathouse with electric lifts awaits your watercraft. A rare private boat launch ramp offers unparalleled convenience. The cove’s deep navigable waters – a result of a natural creek bed – ensure easy access to the open lake year-round. Beyond the house, an expansive 30 x 40 shop stands ready to accommodate a variety of passions. With space for up to six hobby cars and a durable steel roof, this workshop is a hobbyist’s paradise.
This Watts Bar Lake property is more than just a home. It’s a private resort offering the best of lake side living and a legacy of family joy. From its superior owner-supervised construction to its stunning views, every detail has been thoughtfully designed and imbued with the spirit of happy family memories.
