Welcome to 1536 Old Chisholm Trail - Your Slice of Douglas Lake Paradise This fully furnished lakefront retreat offers the perfect blend of comfort, natural beauty, and versatility—ideal as an Airbnb investment, vacation home, family getaway, or peaceful retirement spot. Set on a rare 4-acre lot with gently sloping to flat terrain (some of which extends into the water), this property boasts approximately 264 feet of easily accessible, year-round shoreline on the main channel of Douglas Lake. Breathtaking views of English Mountain and the Smokies frame the horizon, providing a stunning backdrop to your everyday life. Step inside the 2,256-square-foot main home to discover four spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and warm bamboo flooring throughout. The open-concept great room is flooded with natural light, thanks to expansive panoramic windows that showcase the lake views and bring the outdoors in. A cozy fireplace invites you to relax on cooler days, creating the perfect year-round retreat. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. A covered deck and built-in bar area are made for all day gatherings, while a fully aluminum dock and rare concrete boat ramp make lake access effortless—whether you're setting out for a day on the water or docking your boat or jet ski at sunset. Adjacent to the main home, you'll find a separate guest house complete with heating, cooling, and a half bath—ideal for visiting guests, older children, or even a quiet creative studio. A covered carport adds extra parking or convenient storage for your lake gear. Located just 15 minutes from Interstate 40 and also downtown Dandridge—accessible by car or boat—this property combines seclusion with convenience. The current owners never planned to part with this home, built with the intention of being passed down through generations. However, a rare opportunity closer to family has opened the door for someone new to create memories here. Whether you're seeking a full-time waterfront residence or a serene vacation escape, this one-of-a-kind property is ready to welcome you home. Come experience it for yourself—once you arrive, you'll understand why it's truly something special.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
