Property Description
Riverdale Mill, circa 1858, is a nature and history lover's wonderland in southeast Knoxville's historic Riverdale community. Sitting on nearly 2 acres of lush grounds, backdropped with a year-round creek fed by seven springs this property contains two structures listed on the National Historic Register: the mill itself, and an arched stone bridge. The stacked stone garden beds are filled with native perennials and the creek is home to river otters, crayfish, and salamanders. The upper dam and mill wheel are magnificent works of engineering. The building includes 2 stories of finished living, with an additional third story full of potential. This property is full of character: soaring ceilings, massive hand-hewed beams, original wood planked floors, and the original millstones are showcased on the first floor. The main level features a modern kitchen, full bathroom, open floor plan, high-efficiency wood stove and private screened porch overlooking the creek and mill wheel. The impressive wooden staircase leads to the second level. Huge open spaces meet you there, along with a small room, used as a nursery now, as well as a newly remodeled bathroom with heated slate floors and laundry room. Another set of steps leads to the additional unfinished space on the third level. A private studio with woodstove out in the yard is the perfect place to work on your book or do yoga while watching bald eagles, herons, and deer out the window. Two new HVAC units, new water heater, new appliances, custom built-in closets and cabinetry. This grist mill residence is ready for a new owner looking for an unusual and unique lifestyle, surrounded by the peacefulness of nature and just minutes back to the conveniences of the 21st century.
