If you're looking for a beautiful log home (just minutes from Kentucky and Barkley Lakes) that boasts very low property taxes and inexpensive utility bills, then you'll want this two-acre-plus property and home located in the The Land Between The Lakes area of Dover, Tennessee. You can't ask for more -- safe living, friendly people, and a gentle growing community -- it's perfect for raising a family or retiring to. (No, we're not moving away from all this, we're just movin' up the road a piece to take care of aging parents.)
Built in late 1998, our home has approximately 2500 sq. feet of living space on three levels. The upper and lower levels each have their own central heating and cooling units for excellent efficiency. The upper level of the home has two very large bedrooms with huge walk-through closets plus a full bath. The master bedroom with full bath, the great room with stone (gas log) fireplace and beamed ceiling, the large eat-in country kitchen with a picture-window view, and the utility room (with half-bath) are all located on the main level. The lower level has a huge family room with walk-out double French doors that lead to a large parking/patio area, and there is an extra room that could be made into another bath, kitchen, or bedroom.
That's not all! For great fun and relaxation, there is a large deck just off the kitchen, and a long front porch that runs the full width of the house (our favorite "rooms"). There is lots of storage space, too, for your gardening and tinkering needs -- a large built-in garden shed under the back deck, plus a new 14 x 16-ft. shed nestled in the trees just off the driveway (great for woodworking, storing motorcycles :) , lawn and garden equipment, etc.). Lastly, the long driveway wraps completely around the house for easy access at both upper and lower levels.
OK, so what about price and taxes?...$137,000 firm. Property taxes were $625 for 2003. Average heating and cooling bills in '03 were $106 a month. Monthly water bills about $30. (High-speed internet and cable in place, but the price will vary with your personal needs.)
