Overview

Description

Familiar to many Knoxvillians, this unique home has been a 4-time participant in the Downtown Tour Of Homes, featured as the Knoxville Symphony’s Showcase House, seen on HGTV programming, was a host home of Knox Heritage’s Secret Supper Series, and has been the site of numerous fundraising events for organizations including The Friends of Literacy, Smoky Mountain Service Dogs, Shakespeare On The Square, Theatre Knoxville Downtown, and Cure Childhood Cancer, among many others. Saved from demolition in the mid-90’s and re-habbed as a residence in 1998, it’s ideal for use as a one-of-a-kind residence in Knoxville’s burgeoning downtown, this home of approx. 3200sf boasts a soaring 24′ ceiling in a living room with a custom-built bookcases, a gas ventless fireplace, a large kitchen and dining room ideal for hosting, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a landscaped private courtyard, and relatively unique to downtown living, a private 2-car detached garage and 2BR / 1BA garage apartment or guest house. Of particular historical interest, the home features heart pine flooring throughout, all of which was salvaged from the one-time Knoxville industrial stalwart Standard Knitting Mills. Additionally, interior doors and exterior marble stairs were rescued pre-demolition of Knoxville’s famed Park Hotel. The property also has an additional 2-suite office space with a prominent Gay Street address and street-level presence. Possibilities for professional offices, retail, or gallery, in the past, this space has been home to the ETN chapter of the AIA, a contemporary art gallery, the Knoxville Recycling Coalition, a yoga studio, and is currently occupied by a rock-solid local non-profit. The 861sf space could also be renovated for additional square footage to the main house. The residence is within easy walking distance to downtown’s many nightlife destinations including restaurants, bars, plus the Knoxville Art Museum, East TN History Center, the Tennessee and Bijou Theaters, in addition to the University of Tennessee’s main campus. The home is also located on the free-to-ride KAT Green Line Trolley route for even easier access. An adjacent 4400SF 2-story storefront property is also available, making this one of downtown Knoxville’s most unique and desirable properties, and ideal for a live/work situation second to none!
