2 Bedroom Condo in Old City, Knoxville

Stay in this luxury, downtown penthouse and step into historic charm & sophisticated elegance. Enjoy sweeping urban views of downtown Knoxville & the rolling Smoky Mountains in the distance while relaxing on your own private rooftop deck. The built-in outdoor firepit on the rooftop deck is the a perfect place to gather year round with family and friends to experience a once in a lifetime stay in the city!
Experience the grandeur of city life from the moment you step into the home. A short climb from the entrance door will reward you with access to the main living area, where you'll have access to your own gourmet chef's kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, (Thermador, Bosch & GE), custom tile, fine lighting, counter seating, and a dining area with enough room for the whole family. The main living room, showcasing 30 ft vaulted ceilings, floor to ceiling windows, exposed brick, and hardwood floors, is the perfect place to enjoy a quiet night in people watching or get ready for a night out on the town!
Enjoy your morning cup of coffee surrounded by trees in the quiet retreat of your private balcony, conveniently located off main level master bedroom suite. Get ready for the day in your master bath retreat, complete with double vanity, oversized soaking tub, and walk-in shower. Catch some shuteye in the luxury bed in your master suite. A climb up the stairs will bring you to the second story of the home, featuring its own master bedroom/office/family room and private full bath. Floor to ceiling windows allow plenty of natural light in the great room and kitchen.
The second story invites you to bring the party outside with private access to the stunning rooftop deck. Featuring a built-in propane firepit, dining area, and plenty of seating, this penthouse deck is a can't miss area of the home. The best spot to enjoy time with friends and family, it is also the best place to watch Knoxville's parades, festivals, and year round events with unparalleled views of Knoxville's historic skyline and the Smoky Mountains.
You are just steps away from your next adventure. No need to hop in the car, just walk out your front door! The Downtown food scene is amazing! Downtown is filled with a diverse community of people. Small and large families, young professionals, empty nesters, and students all call downtown Knoxville home. We always say downtown Knoxville offers all the best parts of city life with all the charm of a small town. Take a walk down by the Tennessee River. Catch a show at the historic Tennessee Theatre, the official state theatre of the state, or see a concert at the ever popular Bijou Theater. Walk to the Farmers Market on a beautiful Saturday morning and enjoy live music on Market Square on a week night. And don't forget the many festivals hosted right in your backyard! Every day downtown is an opportunity for a new adventure and there's always surprise around every corner. The convenience of living downtown is second to none. Restaurants, bars, boutiques, salons, entertainment - and ice cream! When you're here, you're at the center of the perfect blend of the past and the future.

Furthermore, we will pursue any and all legal measures afforded to us by law (in combination with the booking platform company) for any damage. We want our guests to enjoy our home to the fullest, but this is NOT the place to have a party. We appreciate your cooperation.
NOISE: This part of downtown is the best of both worlds. You are in the heart of downtown; however, this is a quieter part of the street. Noise should be limited; however, please know that you are in a downtown environment and should expect typical city noise.
SECURITY CAMERAS: There are two exterior camera onsite. These are located over the front door and another over the rooftop deck door facing the patio area. Cameras record audio and visual. Security cameras are located ONLY on the exterior of the home.
TRAVEL INSURANCE: We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance for your trip. Travel insurance is a guaranteed option to ensure you are able to receive reimbursement for a covered event should circumstances arise that prevent you from traveling as planned (ex: medical/family emergencies, illness, work obligations, inclement weather, etc). Please confirm with your chosen travel insurance company as to a comprehensive list of all covered events.
