" A MOUNTAIN DREAM "

Well..........Here it is, The Writers Porch II ! It has been my dream since the early 80s when I started vacationing in Townsend, Tennessee to some day own my own little piece of The Smokies.............




Preferably.... my own little piece of The Smokies in Townsend...........
Big Valley is the cutest little resort of manufactured homes.About half the people live here year around. Most are retired, some just come for the warm months. I had never driven into Big Valley until my birthday, Eric and I both fell in love with it. We just thought it was the cutest place we'd ever seen! The streets are all named for foul such as Flamingo Circle, Snow Goose Lane etc.

Ours is on Peacock Ridge............. YES ! We got it! This is looking across the street from the front porch.That is the red roof of a bath house located on the street below.

This is looking UP my street..............

Down my street............toward Bradley Mountain

Coming in the front door. It is completely furnished except for that Big TV ! The 4 big windows all have mountain views!

This is from the dining area looking towards the front door..........It has a gas logs fireplace.

It has 2 bedrooms, this is the front bedroom..........

This one is the back bedroom..............

Coming out from the front bedroom is the washer & dryer...........across from the double closet you see on the right just past the washer, are 2 full baths.........beyond that is the back bedroom.....

A reverse view.............

This bath is closest to the front bedroom and has a tub/shower combo.........

This one has a shower and is closest to the back bedroom. The shower which is on the left, can be concealed behind a folding door.

This is the dining area at the far end of the living area............it has a mountain view via the screen porch....the stainless fridge you see was kept on the back porch for entertaining.

This is the kitchen, it has all new appliances including a small dishwasher next to the stove.........
I love the sliding french doors and the pantry beside the fridge............

My favorite place is this screened porch with awesome mountain views everywhere you look!!

See what I mean.......................A million dollar view of Rich Mountain which is part of the GSMNP . You can access it from Cades Cove in the park and drive across it to Maryville. It is one way and closed in the winter months.

I took this through the screen...........as you can tell

There is also a side deck........which looks back at Bradley Mountain.........and my neighbors back porch...........

Down below the screened porch is a huge open deck which you can see the right edge of here.

This is my back yard......I see wild flowers in it's future..............AND you know I'm gonna be putting my touch on the inside too! HA!

We go back in 3 weeks to close.......and I'm hoping this view...........

Will look more like this.................

HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND YA'LL............ GO TITANS !!!! XOXO
