Welcome to your dream home in beautiful West Knoxville! This stunning 5-bedroom, 3 ½ -bathroom majestic southern manor offers 4,807 sq ft of beautifully maintained living space and is set on a private estate of gently rolling terrain. Tucked away in a peaceful country setting, yet just minutes from I-75 and I-40, this property blends tranquility with convenience.
This stately southern Low Country Antebellum home commands attention with its classic architectural design and expansive layout. Step through the front door and into the spacious foyer, where rich hardwood floors, detailed crown molding, and high ceilings set the tone for the refined finishes found throughout the home.
The main level boasts multiple living and entertaining areas, including a formal dining room, cozy library, and a spacious living room perfect for hosting family gatherings or enjoying quiet evenings by the fireplace. Oversized windows flood each room with natural light, offering picturesque views of the surrounding countryside from nearly every angle.
The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream—equipped with high-end appliances, abundant counter space, custom cabinetry, and a large center island. Whether you’re preparing meals for family or entertaining a crowd, this kitchen provides both beauty and practicality. Adjacent to the kitchen, the breakfast area offers a more casual space to relax, with a commanding view from the bay window. The large outdoor back porch is ideal for morning coffee and relaxing evening conversations.
This home features 5 spacious bedrooms, each with its own character, ample closet space, and access to one of 3 full bathrooms. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, complete with a comfy sitting area, private office, spa-inspired bathroom, walk-in closet, and serene countryside views. Relax in the soaking tub or step into the walk-in shower with a steamer—your personal escape at the end of each day.
The full basement is framed in and offers endless possibilities—think additional bedrooms, media room, home gym, or workshop. The large, finished garage is perfect for cars, tools, and toys.
This estate includes a mostly finished shop that can also serve as a man cave or she-shed. The shop's basement has an office, a full bathroom, and lots of storage space.
There is a large, charming barn that is several decades old. It has a hay loft and lots of space for your tractors and equipment. It would also be a charming location for entertaining on beautiful summer evenings.
As you enter the estate, you are greeted by a stocked aerated pond with large bass. With a mix of open fields and wooded areas, this property is perfect for equestrian, recreation, a gentleman’s farm, or simply enjoying the estate. There are side-by-side trails throughout the entire property. Abundant deer and turkey frequent the property and call it home.
Lake lovers will appreciate the convenience of the Melton Hill Lake, part of the Tennessee River waterway. The southwest border of the property is located about 600 feet from the lake, and multiple public access points are nearby. Opportunities like this rarely become available in such a prime location.
