Property Description
Set against the scenic backdrop of East Knox County farmland, this custom-built 1999 Donald Gardner-designed basement rancher offers space, charm, and versatility on 3.07 peaceful acres. From its long, welcoming front porch to its private backyard oasis with in-ground pool, this home blends Southern charm with thoughtful functionality.
Inside, you'll immediately notice the craftsmanship — solid wood French doors to your left open into a private home office, while a formal dining room anchors the right side of the entry. The heart of the home opens up with a two-story vaulted living room ceiling, creating an airy and inviting gathering space.
The kitchen features a sunny breakfast nook, oversized 42-inch solid wood cabinetry, and flows beautifully for entertaining or daily living. The primary suite on the main level offers privacy and comfort with a vaulted ceiling, en-suite bath with double vanities, walk-in shower, soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in closet. The laundry room is conveniently located on the same wing.
Upstairs, the only second-level square footage includes a generous fourth bedroom and full bath—ideal for guests, teens, or a hobby room.
Downstairs, the fully finished walk-out basement adds approximately 2,000 square feet of wide-open living space with its own garage bay. Whether you're dreaming of a man cave, a multi-generational setup, a separate apartment, or a massive play area, this space delivers. There's even plumbing and layout for a future kitchenette, plus an additional full bathroom.
Step out back to enjoy the covered rear porch overlooking the in-ground pool, perfect for summer relaxation or year-round entertaining. A separate workshop/storage building on the property adds even more flexibility for hobbies, tools, or gardening.
