Tucked within one of East Tennessee's most protected lakefront enclaves, 342 Ripshin Lake Road offers a rare opportunity to live immersed in nature without sacrificing comfort or convenience. This furnished, lakefront home provides direct access to the private 60-acre Ripshin Lake, a personal dock and sweeping, unobstructed mountain and water views. Work from paradise with high-speed fiber internet. Designed with connection and relaxation in mind, the open floor plan features vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors and a dramatic wall of windows. The living room is anchored by a stone propane fireplace with a handcrafted wood mantel, alongside custom built-ins for elegant storage. The kitchen is equipped with Corian countertops, a gas range and ample cabinetry, flowing naturally into a screened-in porch and Trex deck ideal for year-round entertaining. The main-level primary suite offers a private balcony, walk-in closet and spa bath with jetted tub and walk-in shower. Three spacious upstairs guest rooms share a full bath, with one bedroom offering stunning lake vistas. Ownership here means more than just a home: this property is part of the Ripshin Lake Corporation, a distinctive ownership model where property owners are equal shareholders. Owners enjoy access to over 120 acres of preserved corporate land, as well as the idyllic lake itself and have a voice in maintaining the environment's integrity and future. Adjacent to Cherokee National Forest and the Roan Highlands, Ripshin Lake is framed by the soaring Unaka Ridge. For nearly 70 years, this community has offered unparalleled access to fishing, boating and hiking. Significant community improvements, including major enhancements to the dam, have been completed to meet modern regulatory standards. The property is attractively priced below the recent appraised value. This is not just a home; it is your invitation to a legacy of timeless beauty, adventure and lakeside living.
