Some homes are simply built. Others are thoughtfully created for the way life is meant to be lived. Originally constructed as a builder's personal home, this custom Douglas Lake retreat offers nearly 4,900 square feet of craftsmanship, comfort and unforgettable waterfront living in Dandridge, Tennessee. The main level welcomes you with hand-hewn beams, soaring ceilings, white oak hardwood floors, custom cabinetry and a magnificent stone fireplace at the heart of the home. Three bedrooms are conveniently located on the main level, including a spacious primary suite with beautiful lake views, deck access and heated bathroom floors. The custom kitchen features an oversized island, statement wood range hood, high-end appliances and generous space for gathering. Downstairs feels like a home of its own, with two additional bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full second kitchen, family and media spaces, a built-in ice maker, wine refrigerator, dedicated wine room and a hidden safe room. An additional lower-level garage complements the oversized two-car main-level garage, providing exceptional storage for lake equipment, vehicles and recreational toys. Outside, extensive retaining walls and carefully designed terraces allow this home to sit beautifully within the hillside while creating something increasingly difficult to find on East Tennessee lakes: truly usable waterfront. A gentle concrete path and easy steps lead to the water, where a covered two-slip dock, jet-ski ports, electricity and water await. Riprap protects the shoreline, while the irrigated lawn, professional landscaping and fenced level yard provide room to relax and enjoy the setting. An additional terrace was thoughtfully prepared for a future infinity-edge pool, with planning for electrical and plumbing already considered. Multiple decks and outdoor living areas offer peaceful places to watch the water, gather around a fire and take in the beauty of Douglas Lake. This is more than a lake house. It is a legacy property created for slow mornings, full weekends, family gatherings and a lifetime of memories in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.
