SEVIERVILLE: 294,900 - 2807 Alden Glenn Ct., 3bd/2bth:  Y'all are going to love this beautiful home near Dolly Parton's old stomping grounds.

This spacious home features hardwood floors throughout and a large open living room with vaulted ceilings that's ideal for hosting the big game or family get-togethers.

Just off the living room is a roomy kitchen with modern appliances, tons of cabinets and plenty of prep space on the granite counter tops. And you just know the large center island will be the gathering spot on special occasions like Christmas and Thanksgiving. The attention to detail in the kitchen is pretty impressive, too. Just check out that geometric tile backsplash by the stove.

A giant mud room/laundry located just off the two-car garage is a great spot to kick off those dirty shoes. It has a large built-in coat rack with storage bins to help keep you organized, too. While most of us don't love doing laundry,it's  way less of a chore when the laundry room is as awesome as this one!

I like to say that the master suite is our retreat from the world, and this home has a beautiful, comfortable master suite. The roomy master bedroom features a tray ceiling and a big walk-in closet. The master bath has a  double vanity and a large walk-in shower.

I've got to mention the nursery with a shiplap wall. Y'all know how much I LOVE  shiplap!

The inside of this home is beautiful, no doubt, but I'm betting you'll spend a bunch of time outside on deck that's built for entertaining friends and family. A huge fenced-in backyard is perfect for letting the kiddos and the Fidos run around while the adults relax in the shade of the covered deck.

This is a great home in a great community.  As hot as the real estate market is right now, it won’t be for sale very long, so you better call the agent quick. This might just be the home you’ve been dreaming of.

PARKRIDGE: $289,900 - 2331 Jefferson Ave. 3bd/2.5bth: I was out bright and early today for my first listing shoot. And boy howdy.... was it every worth it!! This was a STUNNING rehab that had all my excitement triggers firing immediately!! This is an American Foursquare home that was built in the 1920's. And I'm loving how much of the original home the owners have kept, mixed in some modern touches, and created an outcome that is just awesome!!

That big front porch was exciting just from the street. But when I walked in the front door, oh my mercy!!! The original hardwood floors have been redone beautifully!! Then I see these dark stained post an beams framing the living room. Then I saw the exposed brick from the original fireplace with that black and white geo tile hearth!!!! Then to my left was the staircase with a beautiful diamond window half way up. 

The kitchen is all brand new!! Y'all, those counters are black leathered granite!!!!! It is so pretty and so soft!! And look close at the backsplash tile work..... tiny subway tiles layed in a herringbone pattern!! And the kitchen leads to the laundry area that includes new tile flooring and those wood and pipe open shelving. Just off the laundry room is the cutest study nook, complete with shiplap on the walls!!

There is a nice sized bedroom on the main level as well as one of the full baths. But go up the stairs and immediately see that landing area.... a great common area that could be used in a variety of ways..... a homework area, small tv area, reading nook........ But walk through that door to the 2nd level porch. I love that bed swing, and with the morning sun shining in, I could just imagine what a great place this would be to relax with a cup of coffee and my Bible before starting each day.

Now..... for the glory!! Take a look at that master suite!!!! More exposed brick and gorgeous light streaming in. There's a beautiful sliding door in front of the bathroom. And oh that bathroom!!!! Just take it all in..... clawfoot tub, huge walk-in shower, double vanities, and that closet. It is a serene oasis!

Photographing this home was pure joy for me! 

OAK RIDGE: $155,000 - 107 Taylor Rd., 3bd/1bth: As a native Oak Ridger, it makes my heart happy to photograph one of the original homes after it has been rehabbed. A little history lesson...... Oak Ridge was built in the early 1940's to house the people who were working on the Manhatten Project. These homes were meant to be temporary and were put up, on average, in 3 days - from foundation to completion!! But here we are, almost 80 years later, not only are most of the homes still standing, they have been renovated, updated and added onto. And they are not only unique, but also gorgeous!!

This home on Taylor Rd. is absolutely lovely and has some truly unique features. First, you'll notice a "mirrored" finish to the windows from the outside. These windows can see out from the inside of the house, but no matter the time of day, or even if all the lights are on inside, no one will be able to see in. You can walk around naked all the time with no blinds or curtains, and nobody is going to be the wiser!!

Another great update, a garage has been added, a feature none of these houses had originally. And the floor is lined with rubber matting. The kitchen is a complete rehab and I love it!! What was originally a "coal" room, and that many convert into a laundry room, has been incorporated to make for a nice big kitchen. And the laundry has been moved to a new room that was added on with the garage. All white cabinets, stainless appliances, and tons of counter prep space. I also love the big deep sink!! There are also tons of cabinet storage. 

The bathroom has also been completely renovated and includes a walk-in shower with the "clear glass" doors. It's beautiful!! What was once a covered back porch, has been closed in to make for a third bedroom. And the windows in this room overlook a massive, flat, completely fenced backyard. And notice, this backyard is bordered by the greenway system, making it private. That makes it even nicer to sit on the outside lovely outside patio and enjoy the evening, watching the fireflies or just enjoying the company of family and friends. The backyard is not the only fencing. The entire home, except for the garage and driveway area are fenced. And there is plenty of room for the kiddos and Fidos to run around and get wild!

And before I forget, that gigantic TV in the bedroom........ a smart TV that goes with the house!!!!!! I didn't catch the size, but I think it's the biggest you can buy. The current owner has it hooked to his computer...... gives a whole new meaning to working from home!!

I promise, you will not find a nicer home for this price!!!! And Oak Ridge is known for it's award-winning school system. What you might not know, you get a lot of bang for your buck in Oak Ridge. Trash pick-up..... automatic and at the backdoor. The only can pulled to the street, your recycle. You also get automatic fire and police service, as well as leaf pick-up in the fall and junk pick-up in the spring. There's hospital 5 minutes away, and tons of places to eat and shop. Oak Ridge also has it's own Playhouse, putting on several different shows a year, and a community band, orchestra and music association!! If you want big city amenities in a small town, you don't won't to miss this home!!
