This iconic 1920's estate is on the market for the first time in over 60 years. A landmark estate in the revered Sequoyah Hills neighborhood, perched on a hill overlooking the Tennessee River, this home's presence and grace cannot be denied. Expansive rooms, moldings, high ceilings, beautiful fireplace mantles from the mid-1800's, a grand staircase, and large windows are showcased throughout this entire home. The foyer is large and welcoming with room for guests and family to gather before dispersing into other rooms in the home. The dining room - anchored with an elegant fireplace and marble mantle - is spacious enough for the largest of dining room tables plus space for sideboards and hutches and offers an elegant space for celebrations and holiday gatherings. The formal living room boasts enough space for several seating areas with an adjacent sunroom offering even more! Lots of windows fill these two rooms which allows ample natural light to come in as well as offering views of the river below. The informal living space with fireplace and built-ins presents a more intimate and cozy place to gather while offering plenty of room for comfy couches and oversized chairs. The kitchen, informal dining room and butler's pantry have so much space for storage of foodstuffs, small appliances, as well as china and glassware. Up the grand staircase, you will find the primary ensuite which has a fireplace and enough space for the most majestic of beds as well as seating areas for the lucky owners. The upstairs hall features spacious bedrooms on both sides with attached baths. Off the upstairs hall through a private door is a back staircase and a pair of rooms with a full bath perfect for a nanny, mother-in-law or the family member who simply yearns for more privacy, The grounds of this home are full of mature trees and an inground pool and patio with views of the water. This is a true Knoxville treasure and a once in a lifetime offering. (APPOINTMENT ONLY!)
