About This Home
If you've been craving a slower pace and a little more peace and quiet... this is it. Tucked away on a lightly traveled road in Corryton, this well-maintained 3 bedroom, 2 bath home offers 1,475 sq ft of comfortable living with a true country feel. Inside, you'll find a spacious kitchen and living area that's perfect for everyday living or gathering with friends and family, plus a dedicated laundry room for added convenience. Step outside and it only gets better--a gentle creek runs just behind the home, and it's not uncommon to spot deer and other wildlife passing through. It's the kind of setting where mornings are quiet, evenings are relaxing, and home just feels... easy. Located in the Gibbs School District and only about 20-25 minutes to Knoxville and 35-40 minutes to the airport, you get that peaceful, tucked-away feeling without being too far from everything you need. If you're looking for a place where you can unwind, spread out, and enjoy the East Tennessee lifestyle... this one's definitely worth a look.

Overview
Pet Policy
Knoxville sits where the Tennessee River meets the edge of the Appalachian Mountains. This city was the very first capital of Tennessee, a piece of history that echoes through its architecture and civic pride. Daily life moves at a pace that's energetic without being overwhelming.
Downtown's Market Square draws crowds for concerts, seasonal festivals, and some of the best people-watching in the state, while the Old City has grown into a go-to destination for dining and nightlife. Neighborhoods like Sequoyah Hills offer tree-lined streets along the river, and West Knoxville's Turkey Creek area keeps things convenient with shopping and entertainment close. The orange-and-white spirit of the University of Tennessee is impossible to miss, and on game days, the Vol Navy takes to Neyland Stadium along the Tennessee River in one of college football's most iconic traditions.
Renters will find a solid range of housing options spread across the city.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
