Some homes make everyday life feel a little easier. Welcome to 145 Azalea Ridge, a four-bedroom, three-bath home in Johnson City's established Lake Ridge Estates community, where sidewalks connect the neighborhood, the community pool is close by, and Lake Ridge Elementary School is located within the neighborhood and accessible by a walkable route. Inside, natural light, nine-foot ceilings, crown molding and hardwood floors create a warm, open feel. The main living room is centered around a gas-log fireplace, offering a comfortable gathering place that flows naturally into the dining area and kitchen. Granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry and an easy connection between the kitchen and dining spaces make the heart of the home equally suited for weeknight dinners and a house full of guests. Just beyond the dining area, the large covered back porch extends the living space outdoors. There is room here for dining, conversation and slow mornings overlooking the fenced backyard. Whether it becomes the place for Saturday coffee, dinner outside or an evening spent catching up with friends, this porch is ready to be used through multiple seasons. The main-level primary suite offers a quiet retreat with a walk-in closet and an ensuite bath featuring a jetted tub, separate shower, dual vanities and private water closet. Two additional bedrooms and a shared full bath are also located on the main level, creating a practical split-bedroom arrangement. A dedicated laundry area adds everyday convenience. Downstairs, the finished recreation room provides valuable flexibility beyond the primary living area. It can serve as a media room, playroom, second gathering space or game-day headquarters. The additional bedroom and nearby full bath also create options for guests, a private office, hobby space or multigenerational living. The large side-entry garage provides abundant parking, storage and workshop space, while the unfinished storage area gives you room for the things you want nearby but not necessarily inside the home. The fenced backyard offers plenty of room to play, garden, entertain, or simply unwind, but it is the setting beyond the back fence that gives this space its unexpected charm. A neighboring horse farm adds a peaceful, pastoral backdrop, bringing glimpses of grazing horses and open countryside into everyday life. It feels like a small piece of rural East Tennessee borrowed for the view, all while living in an established Johnson City neighborhood near the community pool and within walking distance of Lake Ridge Elementary. The location is one of the home's most distinctive advantages. Lake Ridge Elementary School is located within the neighborhood, and the Lake Ridge community pool offers a convenient destination for summer afternoons. Sidewalks and streetlights help connect the neighborhood, while nearby Boone Lake (2 miles away) adds fishing, boating and outdoor recreation to the East Tennessee lifestyle.
