Overview

Description

Step into a piece of American history with ''Sunnyside,'' a stately antebellum-style brick residence completed in 1915 by W.D. Stokely Sr., founding member of Stokely-Van Camp Inc. This remarkable five-bedroom, four-bath home spans 3,612 square feet and tells the story of one of the nations most influential food industry pioneers-whose legacy includes helping bring Gatorade to the world. Perched high on the scenic bluffs of Newport overlooking the Pigeon River and downtown, this prestigious property offers breathtaking mountain and skyline views. Lovingly maintained and move-in ready, the home seamlessly blends historic charm and modern comfort. Inside, you'll find timeless architectural details including eight-foot high pocket doors, original hardwood flooring throughout the main and upper levels, a stunning staircase, and a formal dining room adorned with a crystal chandelier. Two fireplaces add warmth and character, while the spacious primary suite features its own fireplace, private balcony, and a full; bath. The home also includes split HVAC, gas radiator heat, a gas water heater, and an enclosed elevator to the second floor (currently inoperable). Generous closet space and storage can be found throughout. Outdoors, the elegance continues with a welcoming veranda with locally quarried stone patio and winding stone walkways. The beautifully landscaped 2.2-acre grounds are a true sanctuary, showcasing flowering shrubs, a sunken garden, mature chestnut trees, a grand magnolia, and Japanese tulip trees. An attached guest house offers additional potential, complete with a two-car carport and a one car garage currently used for storage and ready for your finishing touches. Recent updates include a newer roof, gas-boiler, and added insulation-enhancing both comfort and efficiency. ''Sunnyside'' is more than a home-it's a rare opportunity to own a timeless estate rich in heritage, beauty, and possibility for only $140 sq. ft.! Newport is considered the peaceful side of the Smokies and this property is no exception! Close Proximity to Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, Gatlinburg, Dandridge, Morristown, Hot Springs, The Great Smoky Mtn National Park, Cosby & Big Creek Campground, Appalachian Trail, Douglas Lake, Cataloochee Valley & Maggie Valley! Welcome to The Smoky Mtns, Enjoy the Very Best of Tennessee's beauty, Natural Resources & Generous Hospitality! Drone pictures used in listing.
