About this home
Just minutes from downtown Knoxville, this well-kept 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers a great combination of character, convenience, and future potential by adding double square footage in the walk-out basement. The 816-square-foot main level is filled with natural light and features beautiful original hardwood floors, a very large kitchen with a separate dining area, along with newer windows, and a durable metal roof. One of the standout features is the full 816-square-foot unfinished walkout basement. With plenty of space and easy exterior access, it offers an excellent opportunity to create additional living space, a home office, recreation area, workshop, or extra storage. Outside, the fully fenced backyard provides plenty of room for pets or a small garden. At the bottom of the property, a peaceful creek creates a quiet, serene setting that feels surprisingly removed from the city. This home sits just 2.6 miles from vibrant downtown Knoxville and the University of Tennessee, and only 1.7 miles from Knoxville's Urban Wilderness--a 1,000-acre outdoor destination offering more than 60 miles of hiking and biking trails, swimming quarries, parks, and outdoor recreation. Whether you're looking for a charming home close to downtown or a property with room to add value and expand, this one offers many possibilities. *Some photos in this listing have been virtually staged to illustrate the possibilities and intended use of certain spaces.*
