Prepare to be delighted!

Step inside and it’s a vintage time-travel treat. Think beautiful 1920s woodwork, preserved with care, paired with 1970s flocked wallpaper so pristine you might just decide it’s iconic. This home is solid, clean, and bursting with personality. Enter to the living room graced with a beautiful staircase, continue through a formal dining room, ready for Sunday dinners, game nights, or whatever vibe you bring with you. The kitchen has all appliances, the laundry, and an adjacent red pantry room. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and 1 bath - all with fabulous wallpaper! The partially finished basement adds bonus space—perfect for storage, hobbies, or a cozy retreat. Is it dated? Absolutely. Is it charming? Completely. And with a few thoughtful updates, you could have the coolest vintage-meets-modern home just a block from the Knoxville square. Come take a look—you might just fall for its quirky, well-loved soul.
