There's no place quite like it! Knox High Apartments is a hidden gem and the people who live here know it. THE BUILDING This is a genuine 1911 schoolhouse on the National Register of Historic Places not a building that looks historic, but one that actually is. Patricia Neal, John Cullum, and James Agee all studied here. In 2015, local firm Dover Signature Properties undertook a careful restoration, turning the old classrooms into 85 apartments while keeping everything that makes the building worth caring about. What that looks like day-to-day: soaring ceilings, original architectural details, and enormous windows that fill every room with natural light. The kind of light that makes a Monday morning feel like a snapshot from that Instagram account you love. Every unit has a completely unique floor plan because no two classrooms were the same. Studios, one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms. Part of the fun of touring is finding the one that feels like it was made for you. WHAT'S INCLUDED Utilities are included in your rent all of them. You handle your own internet, and that's it. One number, no surprises. For anyone moving to a new city, that simplicity is genuinely worth something. Almost every unit has in-unit laundry. There's an elevator, a gym, and a rooftop deck with a grill and seating one of the building's best-kept secrets, especially in the evenings. The pool room has a pool table and electronic darts. There's a dog courtyard, a community laundry room, and a Pepsi vending machine for when you need one at midnight. Trash pickup runs three times a week. Free off-street parking wraps all four sides of the building, with paid parking available if you want a guaranteed spot. Pets are welcome. Renters insurance is required easy to set up, and worth having. 3 to 12 month leases terms available.
