Public Remarks: Don't miss your chance to own a beautifully preserved piece of Knoxville history just down the road from Happy Holler! Built in 1930, this craftsman-style single-level home is filled with the original architectural details that make historic homes so special, while offering modern updates. A large concrete front porch with a classic porch swing welcomes you in, while soaring 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, rich original woodwork, and built-in cabinetry immediately set this home apart. The front living spaces are divided by an impressive original built-in feature that adds character, storage, and craftsmanship you simply don't find in newer construction. One of the bedrooms includes original built-in closets that highlight the thoughtful design of the era. The fully remodeled bathroom brings a fresh, modern feel with a beautifully tiled shower, while the kitchen offers updated appliances for everyday convenience. Outside, the fully fenced backyard provides plenty of room for pets, entertaining, gardening, or relaxing around the firepit on cool East Tennessee evenings. And the location is hard to beat. You're just minutes from Central Avenue and Old North Knoxville, with quick access to local restaurants, bars, an independent movie theater, community garden, the neighborhood co-op market, and more. Homes with this much original character, outdoor space, and proximity to everything North Knoxville has to offer don't come along often. Schedule your private showing before it's gone! *Virtual staging was used in some photos.*
