Property DescriptionNestled on approximately 15 acres with direct lake access and panoramic views of the Tennessee River, this extraordinary estate is truly one of East Tennessee's finest lakefront properties. Dating back to the late 1930s and thoughtfully reimagined for modern living, this property blends timeless elegance with today's most sought-after amenities.
The centerpiece of the estate is the Georgian-style Manor House, offering over 7,700 sq. ft. of refined living space. Completely renovated between 2011-2012, it retains its historic charm while introducing sophisticated updates. From the restored hardwood floors to the beautifully renovated baths, every detail was selected to reflect both quality and character.
The main level showcases a stunning primary wing with a luxurious en suite and a designer closet featuring a custom island, glass cabinetry, and an in-suite laundry. Step from your bedroom to a private covered porch and savor peaceful river views. Additional main-level highlights include formal dining and living areas, a den, galley kitchen, two offices, multiple laundry rooms, and gracious porches and courtyards ideal for entertaining. Upstairs, four bedrooms with walk-in closets and two full baths provide ample space for family or guests. Above the four-car garage, a versatile gym and batting cage complete the home's thoughtful layout. Smart home technology ensures convenience at your fingertips, controlling everything from gates to lighting.
Complementing the Manor House is a 2,200 sq. ft. Guesthouse that offers upscale single-level living with two bedrooms, two baths, a gourmet kitchen, family room, and laundry. The outdoor amenities are unmatched—enjoy a saltwater pool, full outdoor kitchen, expansive deck, pond, and stables. Six garage bays beneath the guesthouse provide abundant storage or workshop space.
Adding to the estate's charm is the 800 sq. ft. Whiskey House, a cozy retreat for relaxing and enjoying the surrounding natural beauty. Manicured lawns, mature trees, and abundant wildlife create an unmatched setting of serenity and privacy. The opportunity exists to further elevate this estate, with additional land available to create a commanding 28-acre sanctuary. This remarkable property is only minutes from McGhee Tyson Airport, shopping, sporting events, and Knoxville's vibrant downtown dining.
Properties of this caliber rarely come to market. This is not just a home—it's a legacy.
