About this property

The Cabin by the Bluff

Welcome to Tennessee's South Cumberland!
Down a winding gravel driveway, hidden in the woods, you will be pleasantly surprised when Cabin by the Bluff appears. After enjoying a scenic drive through the rolling hills of Altamont, you will be greeted by a two-story wall of windows, soaring 30-foot wood ceilings, and a hand-crafted stone wood burning fireplace that create comfort and warmth, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the views of nature. Step outside onto the deck or take a short walk to the one-of-a-kind ‘bluff deck’ extending over the stone rocks and bluff below. While on the bluff deck, stay warm by the fire pit, roast marshmallows, and take in all the natural beauty of Tennessee's Cumberland Plateau.

Layout
The house has 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths and sleeps nine. The main level features an open floor plan perfect for a large family or friend gathering, a fully equipped kitchen, dining table with seating for 10, half-bath, and mudroom for hanging clothing after enjoying some of the best hiking trails in the region. Master bedroom (#1) with king bed and access to the back deck, has a private bathroom that includes a double-vanity, walk-in shower, and tub.

Level two features:
- (#2) bedroom: 2 twin beds
- (#3) bedroom: 1 twin bed and a bunk bed
- (#4) bedroom: 2 twin beds
- bathroom with walk-in shower

The house has 3,723 square feet and sits on 100 acres. The surroundings are very private and include 1000's of undisturbed forest. Some of the trails on the property are marked with blue stakes for your convenience.

Bluffs provide incredible views but are very steep. Please be careful as you walk near the bluffs. Some, but not all of the bluff areas are roped off.
