Property Description
Welcome to 205 Kern Place, an 1899 Queen Anne-style cottage full of character, charm, and modern updates. This 2 bedroom, 1 bath home showcases its history with beautiful original hardwood floors and timeless details that make it truly unique. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a stylish glass tile backsplash, and a built-in bar perfect for breakfast bar or entertaining. Both bedrooms are spacious, with one offering an en suite bathroom complete with a pocket door, tile flooring, and a tiled tub surround. There's no shortage of storage here, thanks to a large walk-in utility room, a laundry/mudroom with custom built-ins, and a 14x10 storage shed in the backyard. Outside, you'll love relaxing on the covered front porch or enjoying the freshly stained back deck in the privacy of your fenced yard. Located just outside the Old North Knox historic overlay, this home offers all the charm of its 1899 roots with the convenience of being just minutes from downtown Knoxville's plethora of local restaurants, breweries, and entertainment districts. Showings will begin the afternoon Saturday 1/4 and open house will be held Saturday 1/4 from 2-4pm.
