Property Description
The Joseph Knaffl House, located on Speedway Circle in East Knoxville, is now available to new owners. Moved from Gay street in 1927 to make room for the Andrew Johnson Hotel, this two-story, four bedroom, and 2.5 bath home is completely renovated from top-to-bottom, front-to-back. A marble facade of random ashlar stone has been meticulously restored, as well as the lime-washed brick exterior walls. The entire home fills with light from generous glazing and warmth from restored original flooring. On the first floor are soaring ceilings, restored oak floors, and a new kitchen. Off a hallway between the living and dining areas is a powder room under the stairs and doorway to the primary suite. The bathroom features marble tiled floor and quartz curb and shelf. Upstairs includes three bedrooms connected by hallway with laundry closet and a bathroom with a double vanity and shower. The level lot includes off street parking with alley access. Speedway Circle was developed by famed Cal Johnson as a early 1900s horsetrack before redevelopment into residential lots. It is located moments from I-40, the Knoxville Zoo, the Botanical Gardens, and the much anticipated Smokies Stadium. Rarely does a home of this prominence become available- it is truly a once-in-a-generation opportunity! Prior to scheduling showing, please read agent instructions and disclosures. Owner/Agent.
