About this home
In the Fountain City area of Knoxville, this 1950 brick-and-vinyl residential home offers a comfortable blend of original character and practical updates. The house includes two bedrooms and one bath across approximately 955 square feet, with original hardwood floors, a fireplace, and a layout that feels straightforward and easy to live in. The updated kitchen and bath bring the home current where it matters most, while the covered front porch and rear deck add usable outdoor spaces on a level lot. The encapsulated crawl space supports the home's long-term upkeep, and the overall footprint keeps maintenance manageable without giving up the details that make an older Knoxville home appealing. The setting in Knox County places you within a reasonable drive of UT, downtown Knoxville, and the broader Fountain City corridor, making the location useful for work, school, and everyday errands. Brick and vinyl exterior materials give the house a solid, familiar presence from the street, and the fireplace remains a natural center point inside. The lot is irregular but usable, and the outdoor areas provide spots to sit, relax, or enjoy the yard without a lot of upkeep. This home is now available for sale and works well for someone who wants a smaller Knoxville property with classic features, sensible updates, and a location that keeps the city's major destinations within reach, value-priced for the location and condition. The result is a home that feels practical, settled, and ready for its next chapter. Buyer to verify all information. Square footage, utilities, lot boundaries, and all other pertinent information to be independently verified by buyer/buyer's agent. Info deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
