Property Description

A rare opportunity for buyers like you, this charming turn-of-the-century 4bed/1bath home with a rich family history and a great fully-fenced 1.29-acre lot with 135' of Lonas Drive frontage combine for great value! More than just a house, this is a slice of Knoxville history! The current owners have lived here since 1973! Houses like this were constructed of quality building materials no longer widely available, or that would otherwise be cost-prohibitive today. For instance, the Seller has stated that the foundation is marble. So, to say this house has 'good bones' would be an understatement. Clearly the house has stood the test of time, serving the needs of so many family members so well for 124 years! Now is your chance to make the home your own. With some TLC, this house can be brought into the 21st century without losing its nostalgic charm. The home is within convenient driving distance to I-40, 640, Middlebrook Pike, and UT and Downtown (less than 4 miles). Home features a sunroom, enclosed porch, and deck on the back and a large porch on the front. There are five outbuildings, including garage, carport, tool building, tool shed, and implement shed. House features loads of extra storage, including walk-in attic spaces. The 1.29-acre yard is unbeatable and completely fenced, both front and back, with gated driveway. Also, since the property is Zoned RN-1, another home could be built on the large lot (Buyer to verify with local zoning authority). The commercial building next door suffered a fire and is being rebuilt, so that property will not be an eyesore and the owners of that property are slated to build a privacy fence between that property and this one. If you are an investor interested in the possibility of rezoning this property commercial, that shouldn't be a problem, but you should verify with the local zoning authority. Whatever your vision for this property, if you daydream about what you would do with it but don't act, then you may live to regret it! Come see it.
