Rarely does a property offer this level of privacy, direct lake access, and effortless luxury in the heart of Tellico Village. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after Mialaquo neighborhood, this exceptional one-owner home is perfectly positioned on a beautifully wooded 0.64-acre lot, creating one of the most private settings you'll find while still enjoying direct access to Tellico Lake. A private path just beyond the fully fenced backyard leads directly to the water's edge, where launching a kayak or paddleboard, taking a swim, or simply enjoying the peaceful shoreline becomes part of everyday life. Lush summer foliage creates an incredibly secluded retreat, while fall and winter reveal relaxing seasonal lake views. Designed for effortless living, the thoughtfully crafted split-bedroom floor plan offers over 2,800 square feet of beautifully maintained living space. The inviting great room flows seamlessly into the chef's kitchen featuring a gas cooktop, generous workspace, and an adjoining breakfast room. Just beyond, the composite grilling deck and screened porch create private outdoor living spaces perfect for morning coffee or evening entertaining. The spacious primary suite is privately situated and offers a beautifully appointed bath, an oversized walk-in closet, and convenient access to the expansive laundry room. Two additional guest bedrooms share a full bath on the opposite side of the home, providing comfort and privacy for family and guests alike. The walkout lower level is equally impressive, offering an expansive second living area with a wall of windows, sliding glass doors to the covered patio, a three-quarter kitchen, a generously sized guest suite with its own bath, abundant storage, and multiple finished flex spaces ready to become a home theater, fitness room, craft studio, workshop, or whatever your lifestyle demands. The oversized two-car garage, extensive storage, and spacious lot provide room for future expansion should your needs evolve. Life here extends far beyond the property itself. As a resident of Tellico Village, you'll enjoy three championship golf courses, three clubhouses, a private yacht club, marinas, miles of shoreline along Tellico Lake, pickleball and tennis courts, a state-of-the-art wellness center with indoor and outdoor pools, a private beach, and more than 200 active social clubs. It's a lifestyle where neighbors become lifelong friends and every day feels like a vacation. This is more than an extraordinary home--it's a rare opportunity to experience the very best of East Tennessee lake living in one of the region's most desirable communities.
