    **UPDATED VICTORIAN IN NORTH KNOXVILLE** **3 BEDROOMS | 2 BATHROOMS | 0.32 ACRES** Step into a bygone era of elegance and craftsmanship at this stunning Victorian home, where original architectural details blend seamlessly with thoughtful modern updates. This two-story treasure on oversized grounds offers the perfect sanctuary for those who appreciate historic character and timeless beauty. GRACIOUS LIVING SPACES The front sitting room welcomes you with three soaring windows that flood the space with natural light throughout the day. Original working pocket doors—a hallmark of Victorian design—gracefully separate this formal space from the inviting living room, which showcases built-in bookshelves and cabinetry that speak to the era's attention to detail and functionality. Twelve (12) foot ceilings throughout the main level. The eat-in kitchen provides comfortable daily living, while the convenient back mudroom houses the laundry facilities. Throughout the home, you'll discover four decorative fireplaces adorned with period tiles, beautiful ceiling medallions, and an abundance of built-in cabinetry and cupboards that maximize both storage and visual appeal. SERENE MASTER RETREAT Ascend to the master bedroom, where three full walls of windows create an enchanting tree-house effect that immerses you in nature's canopy. This light-filled haven becomes particularly magical during rainfall, offering a peaceful retreat from the world below. The master suite includes a spacious walk-in closet and full en-suite bathroom for complete privacy and convenience. EXCEPTIONAL LOT & MODERN CONVENIENCES The expansive 0.32 acre lot presents endless possibilities for landscaping and hardscaping projects, providing space for gardens, entertaining areas, or simply enjoying the privacy that comes with generous acreage in the city. Recent seller improvements ensure modern comfort while preserving historic charm: a brand new HVAC system installed in 2025, composite wood back deck, French drain system in backyard, professionally refinished upstairs floors, new front deck flooring and railing, and a new concrete pad with 8x8 storage shed. Two dedicated parking spaces accessed via the rear alley add practical convenience. This remarkable Victorian home offers that indefinable magical feeling that only comes from living within walls that have witnessed over a century of stories, where every room whispers of elegant entertaining and comfortable family life. *Available for private showings.
