Notes from the listing agent

Step into timeless character at this beautiful craftsman-style single level home, built in 1930 and full of the original details that make historic homes so special. From the moment you arrive, the large concrete front porch -- complete with a classic porch swing -- invites you to slow down and enjoy the neighborhood. Inside, soaring 10-foot ceilings and hardwood floors throughout set the tone for the entire home. The front two rooms are separated by a striking built-in cabinet feature, a rare original detail that adds both charm and function. Cozy up by the gas fireplace in the front living space, or appreciate the craftsmanship of the built-in closets tucked into one of the bedrooms -- thoughtful storage solutions original to the home's era. The fully remodeled bathroom offers a fresh, modern touch with a beautifully tiled shower, while the kitchen features updated appliances, blending everyday convenience with the home's vintage soul. Out back, you'll find a fully fenced backyard -- ideal for pets, privacy, or entertaining -- anchored by a firepit perfect for East Tennessee evenings. Location is everything, and this one delivers: you're just minutes from the energy of Happy Holler and the charm of Old North Knoxville, with easy access to restaurants, bars, independent movie theater, and the local co-op market. For those who love to garden or simply enjoy green space, Burwell Gardens -- a community garden just down the block -- adds an extra layer of neighborhood connection. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Knoxville's architectural history without sacrificing comfort, updates, or an unbeatable location. Schedule your private showing today!
