The space
When you stay in the historical 4th and Gill neighborhood, you’ll enjoy walking past dozens of early 1900’s architectural homes. This downtown neighborhood shares many roads that lead directly to Knoxville entertainment and food districts.

Our beautifully restored rental was constructed in 1899 by well known historical architect, George Barber! Those of you who love historic homes will enjoy the original aspects of the home that we were able to retain throughout the restoration process. Original hardwood floors, stained glass windows, fireplace mantle, pocket door, door knobs and hinges... Post renovation, you will find the space to be a good mix of old and new, tastefully updated with modern touches and amenities. Still, we love to daydream about all of the life that has been lived in this home over the last century!

All rooms in the home let the natural sunlight in, which makes for peaceful mornings and presents a charming ambiance when getting ready for an evening out. Of course you can always close the curtains for those moments when you feel like taking a power nap or sleeping in :-)

There are 2 bedrooms with a total of 3 queen beds , with top-quality mattresses, pillows, and linens to provide you with the greatest nights of sleep. You’ll also find plenty of storage space to unpack. In the living room, you’ll also find a stylish and comfortable couch, that can also work for an additional guest to sleep comfortably. In front of the sofa, you’ll find the Flat-screen TV ready to connect to any of your favorite streaming applications, making it the perfect spot to make some popcorn and plan a fun movie night.

The cozy kitchen is completely packed with all the necessary amenities to cook all your meals, from the simplest breakfasts or snacks, to elaborate gourmet dinners. Stainless steel appliances include a refrigerator, stove with oven, and microwave. All the necessary kitchenware and tableware provided along with some spices to make your cooking easier.
A lovely dining table with chairs works perfectly to enjoy your meals together while contemplating what else the day might bring. And, if you are coming to Knoxville for work or need to do some work while traveling, there is high speed wifi ready to connect from anywhere in the home.

Finally, the 2 elegantly remodeled full bathrooms are fully equipped with the necessary toiletries. The master bathroom contains a shower, and the hall bathroom contains a clawfoot tub, complete with shower installation. You’ll find a washer and dryer convenient for your laundry needs, and an iron and ironing board are available, as well.

Girls’ Trip

We stayed for a weekend here and the house was as expected. There is plenty of parking behind the house if needed. It is convenient to downtown, shopping, and restaurants. Everything was very clean. We didn’t use the kitchen or deck area so I won’t comment. There could have been a little more seating in the living room given it sleeps six, but overall, we would definitely stay here again.

Knoxville adventure

This is a lovely property. The apartment is spacious and comfortable. It was a great base for our exploration of Knoxville. Close to all of our chosen adventures with great proximity to Xul brewing (walkable). We had very few complaints. We wish there had been more glassware and were very sad there was no coffee pot.The one thing we really weren't thrilled with were the floors, which were not clean. The rest of the apartment was clean; the floors not so much .Overall, ww loved this property and would stay again.

Visiting with family in Knoxville

We traveled from Georgia to see our daughter. She coordinated an event & this location was perfectly located between her house & the event location. We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was warm & inviting & it had everything that we needed. There was an issue with the water in the kitchen, but I contacted Missy & she got the issue resolved immediately. Couldn't have asked for better service! We will recommend to our friends and will stay with them again.

Very nice property. Large older house that had been renovated. If I had one critique it would be that we didn’t feel comfortable walking into town from that location and chose to drive. Everything was within 5-10 minutes by car.

Great stay

We only spent one night here but it was very nice. Clean and accurately described. We wanted to eat in, and the kitchen was wonderful to make our meal. We got groceries from Three Rivers close by. Street noise was there (train horn, party music somewhere close by) but manageable. Thank you!

College Visit Fall Break

The property was very well kept and cute. There were plenty of notes to tell you about how things were to be. There was construction across the street and an upstairs neighbor, along with the trains. Overall felt safe for myself and my two daughters to stay at while we visited our son at college. The Wi-Fi did go out during our visit so that cut our visit short with our son because he needed to do homework. The location was definitely not within walking distance of downtown or at least not walking and filling safe so we did still have to pay for parking. All in all we were happy with our visit.
