Notes from the listing agent

*YOUR OUTDOOR DREAMS JUST CAME TRUE!* Imagine living where the adventure begins. Welcome to one of South Knoxville's most exciting lifestyles, the Knoxville Urban Wilderness isn't just a weekend destination--it's your next-door neighbor. Positioned at the entrance to the Anderson School Trailhead and the renowned South Loop Trail System, this beautifully renovated home puts an extraordinary outdoor playground at your fingertips. With approximately 1,500 acres of natural beauty and more than 60 miles of interconnected trails and greenways, the Urban Wilderness offers endless opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, trail running, wildlife watching, and exploring. From the incredible trails of the Helix system to Ijams Nature Center, Baker Creek Preserve, and beyond, this is a community where outdoor adventure isn't something you plan a trip around. It's simply part of everyday life. And when you're ready to come home? The house is every bit as inviting as the lifestyle! Originally built in 1955 and completely reimagined, this 2,196-square-foot home offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a combination of character and beautiful finishes, all situated on a generous .55-acre corner lot. Step inside to a light-filled living room featuring beautiful hardwood floors, oversized windows, custom window shades, and an inviting semi-open floor plan. The spacious renovated kitchen is designed for gathering, with abundant white shaker cabinetry, gorgeous backsplash, stainless steel appliances (including the refrigerator), and an adjoining dining area with plenty of room to entertain. But the real showstopper might just be the stunning sunroom/family room. Wrapped in natural light from a wall of windows and expansive sliding glass doors, this space features wide-plank, light oak-inspired LVP flooring, designer wall sconces, and a gorgeous custom-built coffee bar complete with concrete countertops, mid-size refrigerator, open shelving, beautiful backsplash and lighting. Whether it's your morning espresso before hitting the trails or an evening spent unwinding with friends, this space was made for enjoying life. The striking powder room showcases a custom-built cabinet, tiled statement wall, and gorgeous lighting, while the thoughtfully designed laundry room features custom cabinetry that makes even everyday chores feel a little more luxurious. The primary suite offers its own sense of retreat with a moody accent wall, walk-in closet with customized shelving, and an en-suite bathroom featuring a double vanity with granite countertops. Three additional generously sized bedrooms provide plenty of flexibility, with beautiful hardwood and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. Outside, the expansive back deck overlooks a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to relax and entertain. An adorable playhouse/storage shed adds charm and functionality to the property. And for those whose adventures come with a little extra gear, this home has you covered. Two separate driveways provide convenient access at both the main and basement levels, while the basement features a tandem two-car garage with additional space perfect for your workshop, home gym, or the headquarters for all your outdoor equipment. A new roof was installed in 2024, closed-cell spray foam insulation was added to the exterior walls and ceiling rafters in 2023 for energy efficiency, and the crawl space has been encapsulated. Low-maintenance vinyl and stone siding complete the exterior. This is more than a beautifully renovated home. It's an opportunity to make one of Knoxville's most extraordinary outdoor destinations part of your everyday life. Trade the drive to the trailhead for a walk out your door, and discover what happens when the place you love to explore is also the place you call home.
