Tucked at the apex of a quiet cul-de-sac in Chervue Hills, this sprawling 1970's custom brick rancher offers an unforgettable combination of retro character, contemporary updates, and resort-style living. Part of the Chervue Hills-Addition created by the Brickey family in the 1960's, this home's elevated setting provides a lovely view toward Beaver Ridge and Beaver Brook Country Club and a vantage point where the stars seem to shine a little brighter at night. At the heart of the 4,134-square-foot home is its truly spectacular indoor heated pool, surrounded by an enormous entertaining area with plenty of room for lounging, gatherings in front of the 90'' flat screen TV (pool furniture & TV's convey), and enjoying the adjacent hot tub. An outdoor patio extends the living space even further, while strategically-placed sliding glass doors throughout the home provide effortless access to the pool and surrounding spaces. And the dramatic entry foyer is anchored by a double-sided brick fireplace, setting the tone for the home's distinctive architecture. Past the foyer you'll find an inviting living room and spacious eat-in kitchen featuring a massive peninsula, abundant cabinetry and open shelving, stainless steel appliances, coffee bar, and a 5-burner gas range. Adjacent to the kitchen is an enormous potential sunroom, dining room, atrium, or hobby space -- wrapped in windows that bring the outdoors in. Four bedrooms include a generous primary suite with its own ensuite bath, while a versatile bonus room offers the flexibility to serve as a fifth bedroom, office, or studio. Three bathrooms, a separate laundry room with bonus storage, a spacious attached two-car garage, and a functioning interior intercom system complete the home. Outside, fresh landscaping and a newly-fenced portion of the yard enhance the property's curb appeal and privacy. Just over a mile from Black Oak Shopping Plaza, approximately 8 minutes to Fountain City, and 18 minutes to Downtown Knoxville and the University of Tennessee, this one-of-a-kind home pairs a peaceful, elevated neighborhood setting with convenient access to the city. With its unique architecture, incredible indoor pool, and expansive entertaining spaces, this is a home that truly has to be experienced in person.
