Property Description Discover this unparalleled offering of 4121 Towanda Trail, tucked inside a private enclave of Sequoyah Hills in one of Knoxville's most prestigious and established neighborhoods
After nearly 35 years under the same ownership, this remarkable top notch, custom colonial two-story brick basement home is ready to begin its next chapter.
Built in 1937 and impeccably maintained by only three owners, this distinguished residence is set on nearly 3/4 of an acre of beautifully appointed grounds offering both privacy and presence. A true highlight of the property is the peaceful flagstone patio with the calming sound of the stone waterfall feature and garden pond.
The home offers four spacious bedrooms, including the primary suite upstairs and a versatile main-level guest bedroom or private office with en suite bath.
Three marble bathrooms, generous living and dining rooms that open seamlessly onto a covered balcony, creating an ideal setting for sophisticated entertaining or quiet moments. A comfortable eat-in kitchen complemented by a butler's pantry with wet bar, blending timeless charm with modern convenience.
With the grandeur of estate grounds, this timeless residence retains much of its gorgeous original character and finishes featuring unmatched longevity of its slate roof, beautifully sloped and freshly painted Venetian Plaster walls and ceilings, hand forged railings, flagstone balcony, rooftop sundeck, covered loggia, stone water feature and pond, glorious flower gardens, dual access staircase landing, charming Dutch double door, handcrafted hardwood oak flooring, solid pine doors and lavish domestic marble that reads like art.
Boasting 2630 square feet of living space plus an additional 1293 square feet in a partially finished walk-out basement, this home offers exceptional flexibility for refined living and entertaining. Complete with central heating and air and a fourth full bathroom, the lower level is rich with potential while showcasing striking historic details, including exposed brick, shiplap walls, and enduring craftmanship.
And there's more....due to its perfect placement on a generous lot, the home lends itself to a brilliant opportunity for future expansion. Architectural sketches are available upon request.
Situated near the Tennessee River, Cherokee Boulevard, Sequoyah Park, and just minutes from top-tier hospitals, Sequoyah Elementary School, and the University of Tennessee. Enjoy convenient access to a vibrant downtown noted for its award winning and Michelin recognized restaurants.
This isn't just a home, its a legacy property and opportunities like this are rare...secure your place in this irreplaceable setting.
