A rare offering in South Knoxville, this 1960 Charles Barber-designed mid-century modern home seamlessly blends architectural pedigree with breathtaking natural surroundings. Perched south-facing along Chapman's ridge, each room in the main level features panoramic views of the Great Smoky Mountains and the Tennessee River. Every detail has been meticulously restored to offer new owners a sophisticated retreat just minutes from downtown Knoxville.
