Property Description
Step into timeless elegance with this beautifully preserved 100-year-old home in the heart of Knoxville. Featuring three spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a bonus room, this unique property offers an abundance of charm throughout.
Relax on the front porch with views of the lush, certified wildlife habitat yard, a true nature lover's paradise. Birds, dragonflies, butterflies, and a wide variety of edible and medicinal plants flourish in this eco-friendly sanctuary. For those interested in urban homesteading, the yard receives ample sunlight and has a low-mow lawn, perfect for growing fresh, organic fruits and vegetables. Perennial raspberries, blueberries, and mulberries are plentiful each spring. The full-sized basement has a raised floor, and sump-pup, providing extensive storage space for the ultimate home grocery store. The walk-in closet provides additional storage.
Inside, unwind in the spa-like bathroom featuring a luxurious jetted tub, or enjoy the vibrant sunset year-round from the heated sunporch or deck. The home retains much of its original architectural details, including hardwood floors. Natural light is abundant throughout the year, and the property includes off-street parking and a carport.
This home is conveniently located within minutes of the interstate and Knoxville's most sought-after attractions, including Zoo Knoxville, The Muse, Beck Cultural Exchange Center, Knoxville Botanical Gardens, Tennessee Theatre, Neyland Stadium, and the brand new Smokies Baseball Stadium. Access to the Holston, French Broad, and Tennessee Rivers, including boat and kayak launches less than two miles away, and Knoxville's Urban Wilderness provide opportunities for fishing, boating, kayaking, mountain biking, hiking, and swimming without venturing far from home.
When you need a break from urban living, take advantage of the natural beauty and history East Tennessee and Southern Appalachia have to offer. Among the highlights are Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Museum of the Cherokee People, Cherokee National Forest, Cumberland Gap National Historical Park, Obed Wild and Scenic River, House Mountain State Natural Area, Seven Islands State Birding Park, and The Lost Sea! All within a 50-mile radius, these attractions offer the perfect backdrop for an impromptu day trip, or a peaceful vacation immersed in nature's beauty and the history of the land.
Whether you are entertaining on the private screened patio, enjoying a cozy evening indoors in front of the fireplace, celebrating with the community in your front yard, or strolling through your garden oasis as the sun first illuminates the morning sky, this property offers a rare blend of history, comfort, natural beauty, and a peaceful retreat.
