Overview

Description

Prime Gay Street location in the heart of downtown. This beautifully designed two-bedroom residence is set within the historic JCPenney Building, with Maple Hall, featuring bowling, dining, and a full-service bar, just downstairs. Revitalized in 2016, the building blends timeless architectural character with modern convenience, offering true downtown living with exceptional walkability, security, and comfort. The thoughtfully curated floor plan features gleaming hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, oversized windows including a juliette balcony that provide tons of natural light, exposed brick and ductwork, full-height walls for enhanced privacy, and an open-concept living and kitchen area accented by concrete countertops and refined finishes, perfect for entertaining. The owner's suite offers a private retreat with a tiled walk-in shower, double vanities, marble tile surrounding the soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in closet. Recent upgrades include custom laundry cabinetry, a bespoke wardrobe, a custom closet system, and fresh interior paint. In addition to the kitchen appliances, the washer and dryer, and living room TV convey, for a move-in-ready experience. Steps from Market Square, the Tennessee Theatre, dining, shopping, and entertainment, with nearby parking options and close proximity to the University of Tennessee, the Old City, and the new Smokies baseball stadium. A rare opportunity in one of downtown's most iconic locations.
