Property Description
Nestled in the peaceful Lake Forest neighborhood of South Knoxville and the Urban Wilderness, this beautifully updated Cape Cod-style home blends classic charm with modern conveniences. Built in 1940, the residence features 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and over 2,800 square feet of living space.
The main level includes a formal dining room with a cozy fireplace and French doors that open to a secluded side porch, ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The chef's kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with white shaker cabinetry, elegant granite countertops, a travertine backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, including a dual-fuel range with a convenient pot-filler.
Original hardwood floors throughout the home enhance its timeless appeal, while large windows provide plenty of natural light. Set on a well-manicured 0.27-acre lot, this property offers a private retreat while still being minutes away from local amenities, parks, and the beautiful Tennessee River. You are within walking distance to William Hastie Trailhead, 15 minutes from University Of Tennessee campus.
