Property Description

Step into a one-of-a-kind piece of Kingsport history with this 4-bedroom, 3-bath lakefront retreat spanning over 2,600 sq. ft. Built with unforgettable character, the entire front of the home is secured with bulletproof construction and bulletproof glass--giving it a level of privacy and distinction rarely found. Nestled directly on the lake, the property offers a private dock for boating, fishing, and year-round enjoyment. Inside, you'll find spacious living areas and a downstairs game room that once hosted legendary high-stakes poker nights. The home's original owner--a diamond dealer--crafted this custom residence to entertain in both luxury and security. Whether you're drawn to its colorful history or its unbeatable waterfront setting, this property is a true conversation piece and a rare opportunity in the Tri-Cities. Just a stone's throw from Tri-Cities Airport, the new Bristol Casino, Bristol Motor Speedway, and even multiple ski resorts, the location offers convenience and entertainment in every direction.
