About This Home
As of June 2025Step inside one of Old North Knoxville's most treasured Victorian residences! A meticulously restored 4 bedroom, 2 bath home built in 1899, this home captures the charm and craftsmanship of the past while offering the comfort and updates of today.
From the moment you arrive, the home makes a statement. Nestled on a generous corner lot, the inviting screened front porch sets the tone for what's inside: original heart pine hardwood floors, windows, six fireplaces, ornate trim work, and a handcrafted staircase that showcases the detail and thought, that stands as a centerpiece of the home. Light pours into every room, especially the sun soaked sitting room, offering the perfect place to begin your day or unwind as it ends.
The main level primary suite offers a seamless blend of historic charm and everyday convenience. Meanwhile, the renovated kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and updated plumbing, delivering both form and function for the modern homeowner. The laundry room is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen.
Recent upgrades include whole home water filtration system, a tankless water heater, dual zone HVAC, and a wireless security system, providing peace of mind while preserving the home's historic integrity.
Outdoors, the lifestyle continues: entertain beneath the backyard pergola, enjoy quiet mornings on the refinished rear deck, or wave to neighbors from the comfort of your expansive front porch. The unfinished basement offers ample storage and is equipped with workbenches and utilities for an active hobbyist. A paved off-street parking area will accommodate 4 vehicles in tandem.
Situated in the beloved Happy Holler pocket of Old North Knoxville, this home is just steps from vibrant local dining, shops, and parks, while being only minutes from Downtown Knoxville.
Homes like this are rare. History, style, and location are all in one beautifully restored package.
Schedule your private showing today and experience Knoxville living at its finest.
