Property Description
There's something magical about a home that honors its past while embracing the present — and this home does just that. Built in the early 20th century, this house sits in the historic Oakwood neighborhood of Knoxville - a residential area laid out over a century ago with classic-era homes and a genuine ''front-porch, neighborly'' feel.
Greeted by a classic covered front porch that isn't just decorative, but sets the tone connecting you to the rhythms of the home... and the neighborhood — wide steps, traditional columns, and enough space for a porch swing... the kind of porch that whispers ''sit a while, wave at your neighbors, and enjoy the company of friends and family.''
But step inside — and you discover a home reimagined from the ground up. This was not a ''light touch'' remodel. This was a true down-to-the-studs renovation: every wall, every finish, every wire, pipe, and system re-worked so that the bones are sound and modern living feels effortless.
The WOW factor starts right here in the extra-wide entry with almost 10 foot ceilings throughout... you know what that means? A great big Christmas tree! And you'e got some great options for where to put it in this one.
The kitchen is the heart of the home - beautiful granite countertops,brand-new stainless-steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and a bar for casual meals or conversations. It feels like a modern gourmet kitchen, yet still homey and warm.
Beyond the kitchen, the house offers two large gathering spaces: a gracious living room measuring more than 13' by 17', so go ahead and bring that oversized sectional ... and a separate 13' by 13' dining room with a gorgeous chandelier. The dining room is large enough to double as a second living area, a playroom, a home office — whatever fits your lifestyle.
All 4 Bedrooms were reconfigured for comfort and function, but the primary suite stands out with its massive walk-in closet giving tons of storage and organization - solving the common ''tiny closet'' dilemma found in historic homes.
The bathrooms were also rebuilt from the ground up into spa-like sanctuaries ... modern tile, fixtures, and finishes. How's that for contemporary elegance and practicality? There's a designated laundry room on the main level, so no trekking down to a creepy, stinky, unfinished basement to wash clothes.
Let's talk about this location! Living here puts you within a few miles of Knoxville's vibrant mix of culture, dining, and breweries in Old City like Old City Java, Balter Beerworks, and Potchke Deli or head into Market Square — a historic pedestrian plaza full of shops, restaurants, events, farmers markets, and the pulse of city life.
You truly get the best of both worlds with this home - the peaceful, friendly-neighbor vibe of a historic residential neighborhood plus the peace of mind of a brand new home — just steps away from all the things we love about downtown Knoxville.
