Property Description

Timeless craftsmanship meets modern comfort in this stunning 1920's brick Craftsman, gracefully set on 2.5 picturesque acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. Believed to have been constructed as the sister home to the neighboring residence on Lynndell Road, this exceptional property shares a rich architectural heritage and offers the perfect blend of historic charm, thoughtful updates, and endless possibilities. From the moment you arrive, the impressive porte cochere, massive covered front porch, and exquisite front door with elegant sidelights create an unforgettable first impression. Inside, you'll find original narrow-plank hardwood flooring, beautifully preserved wood trim, French doors, stained glass light fixtures, abundant built-ins, custom wooden shutters, and oversized windows that fill every room with natural light while showcasing the home's classic beauty. Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, the enormous gourmet eat-in kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a gas range, an oversized center island, a separate walk-in pantry, and generous dining space. A spacious laundry and utility room adds convenience, while multiple cedar-lined closets provide storage throughout the home. Offering five bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, the thoughtfully designed floor plan provides flexibility for any lifestyle. The expansive primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a comfortable sitting area and a luxurious ensuite bath boasting double vanity sinks, walk-in shower, and clawfoot soaking tub. Upstairs you'll also find three additional bedrooms and a full hall bathroom, while the main level includes a versatile fifth bedroom equipped with a convenient Murphy bed--ideal for guests, a home office, or multi-generational living. Step outside to experience your own private oasis. A massive two-tiered deck overlooks a tranquil water feature, tiered gardens, lush landscaping, sprawling open green space, and peaceful pockets of wildflowers and mature trees, creating the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or simply enjoying the beauty of nature. The property also includes an impressive detached four-car garage with abundant room for storage, hobbies, or a workshop. An expansive 1,185 sf basement provides ample storage today, with outstanding potential for future expansion, a recreation area, home gym, or additional finished living space. Adding even more value, the sprawling 2.5-acre parcel offers the potential to subdivide a portion of the land for future development or resale (subject to local approvals), making this an incredible opportunity for homeowners and investors alike. And you're perfectly positioned just minutes from the heart of Fountain City, with the shopping and dining along the Broadway corridor only 3 minutes away, 8 minutes to the charm of Happy Holler, and just 13 minutes from the Old City/Downtown and the University of TN. Steeped in history, overflowing with character, and offering space to grow both inside and out, this extraordinary Craftsman is a rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind property.
