Welcome to beautiful Monteagle Mountain on the South Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee!

Simply relaxing in this peaceful setting will melt your stress away. The home is a perfect blend of modern open spaces yet retains a warm and cozy environment with the huge stone fireplace, vaulted wood ceiling and hardwood floors. On your approach, you'll see glimpses of the bluff and be welcomed with a large front yard and porch overlooking the gardens. From the glass entry door, your eyes will gaze straight to the beautiful bluff through the four French doors of the Great Room leading to the huge deck. From there, spread out and enjoy the 3 levels of this spacious home!
The Great Room is the perfect gathering place! Gaze out the doors for a spectacular view, play games, work a puzzle or read books by a cozy fire.
