Overview

Description

Built in 1950, this remarkable residence at 519 Noelton Drive rests in the heart of Sequoyah Hills—one of Knoxville's most prestigious and historic neighborhoods. Blending timeless character with striking contemporary design, the home offers a rare opportunity to own something truly distinctive. Priced under its recent appraised value, it presents exceptional value in a location where opportunities are few and far between. Tucked away on a quiet, wooded lot, it feels like a private retreat while remaining just minutes from the city's conveniences. Recently vacated by the sellers, the entire interior has been freshly painted and professionally cleaned, offering a crisp, move-in-ready experience from day one. Step inside and you're welcomed by an abundance of natural light pouring through oversized windows. Original wood floors and soaring cathedral ceilings create an inviting sense of warmth and openness, while the open-concept layout seamlessly connects the living area, dining room, kitchen, and sunroom. A stunning stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the main level, serving as both a focal point and a natural separation between the living and dining spaces. Just beyond, the tiled sunroom showcases sweeping views of the wooded backyard, blurring the line between indoors and out. Adjacent to the sunroom, the kitchen balances modern style and everyday functionality with plentiful light, a cozy breakfast nook, and a tucked-away dry bar—perfect for morning coffee or entertaining. A convenient laundry closet adds to the home's practical design. The spacious primary suite is also located on the main level and offers incredible flexibility, with ample room for sitting areas or a private retreat. A private balcony provides a peaceful spot for quiet mornings, while the en suite bath features classic tile, double vanities, abundant natural light, and soaring ceilings. A jacuzzi tub and shower combo invite relaxation, and an additional full bath with a walk-in rain shower completes the level. Upstairs, a charming lofted space includes a bedroom and a flexible office or reading nook, offering both privacy and character. Step through the glass door to discover one of the home's most distinctive features—a rooftop garden with endless possibilities, creating a serene oasis above the treetops. The lower level is equally impressive, featuring a second living area with its own fireplace, two additional bedrooms, and another full bath. Large windows and glass doors open to a covered porch, making the space ideal for entertaining or hosting guests. One bedroom includes a custom pull-down kitchenette, and both bedrooms have private entrances, allowing the level to function as a fully independent living space. As an added benefit, the property previously held a short-term rental permit for the downstairs area, offering exceptional flexibility and income potential. Buyers would simply need to reapply, as permits do not transfer with ownership in Knoxville. Rich with character, thoughtful design, and modern updates, this home stands out in Sequoyah Hills. Move-in ready and filled with possibility, it's prepared for its next chapter and certain to be a source of pride for its new owners.
