About this home

Fully reimagined mountain retreat in the heart of the Smokies, 291 Dills Rd offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and versatility. Set on a peaceful wooded lot with seasonal mountain views, this 3BR/3BA home features approximately 1,495 sq ft of thoughtfully updated living space with a warm, modern rustic feel.

Step inside to find an open-concept living area with brand-new hardwood floors, exposed beams, and a cozy wood-burning stove. The kitchen is beautifully finished with sleek cabinetry, butcher block countertops, and a spacious island ideal for gathering. Each bedroom offers its own sense of privacy, with updated baths featuring tile showers and modern fixtures.

Outdoor living is where this property truly shines—enjoy the expansive covered decks, front porch, and private wooded setting perfect for relaxing or entertaining.

A standout feature is the separate 434 sq ft cabana/tiny home, complete with loft sleeping area, full bath, kitchen, and its own deck—ideal for guests, rental income, or a private retreat space.

Additional highlights include a newly added carport, paved access, and a serene setting just minutes from the Nantahala Outdoor Center, Appalachian Trail, Fontana Lake, and endless hiking and rafting opportunities.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
