Completely renovated and reimagined in the heart of Sequoyah Hills, this one-level home is just off Cherokee Boulevard, with easy access to its popular walking path, parks, and the Tennessee River. The renovation goes far beyond cosmetic updates: the primary suite was completely rebuilt, while all new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, tankless water heater, electric car charger, and Sonos sound system join the long list of improvements throughout the house. The result is a home that feels entirely new while retaining the scale and character of its established setting. A separate hallway leads to the new primary suite, creating a quiet sense of separation from the rest of the home. The spacious bedroom includes a custom walk-in closet and ensuite bath with heated floors, a soaking tub, and large walk-in shower. A dedicated laundry room is located just off the hallway for added convenience. On the other side of the home, the main entry opens to a powder room, a second laundry room, and the remaining bedrooms. One bedroom has its own ensuite bath, while two additional bedrooms share a hallway bath. The sunken bedroom adds another dimension to the floor plan and could serve as a library, playroom, sitting room, or whatever the household needs. At the center of the home, the brand-new kitchen features a gas range, large island, solid-surface backsplash, and a custom hood surround. The open dining area has room for a table large enough to gather family and friends, or could be arranged with a smaller table to create a more intimate keeping room. A well-planned butler's pantry provides additional refrigerator space, a sink, and generous storage before opening to a private office or fifth bedroom. The large living room features a fireplace along with a convenient drop zone and additional storage. Outside, the new carport adds more than covered parking. A large heated and cooled storage room offers yet another flexible space for a home gym, art studio, workshop, or whatever suits your needs. The backyard is designed for easy outdoor living, with an outdoor kitchen, patio, in-ground pool and spa, and a dedicated powder room conveniently located for pool and backyard use. Low-maintenance turf minimizes time spent on yard work and leaves more time for enjoying the pool, spa, and outdoor spaces. Just minutes from the University of Tennessee, Downtown Knoxville, shopping, and dining, the home offers an easy connection to all that Knoxville has to offer.
