Some homes ask you to imagine what they could be. This one has already done the work.
What began as a well-built 1992 home on nearly half an acre in one of West Knoxville's most established neighborhoods has been completely transformed -- not renovated in the way that phrase is so often overused, but genuinely reimagined. 7324 Nubbin Ridge Drive is the rare property where the quality of the investment is immediately apparent and consistently delivered from the moment you walk through the door. Lauren Rae Design led a complete redesign of the kitchen in 2023 that changed not just the finishes but the entire architecture of the space. The elongated island, finished in a contrasting lighter wood tone, anchors the room and seats five -- the kind of gathering point that becomes the center of gravity for a household. The appliances are SubZero, Wolf, and Cove. The cabinetry is custom Legacy, with soft-close hardware, pull-out shelving, under-cabinet lighting, and a walk-in pantry with a reclaimed door. There is a dedicated beverage center with a built-in Miele coffee maker and quartz countertops throughout. This is not a kitchen that was simply updated; it is where elegance and function converge. That same sense of intention carries through the primary suite, renovated in 2021 with travertine flooring, a rain head shower, heated floors, and heated towel bars -- the kind of details that are cherished on a blustery morning. Custom closet systems are installed throughout the home. Visual Comfort lighting fixtures, motorized window treatments in the family room, and a main-level bedroom/office with custom built-in cabinetry reflect an owner who understood that the standard had to hold in every room, not just the main spaces. Then there is the backyard, which deserves its own conversation. It is an extension of the home, a seamless integration between inside and out. The heated gunite saltwater pool and spa is the centerpiece of an outdoor living environment that includes a built-in grilling station, an outdoor refrigerator, an integrated sound system, a covered patio, a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter, and an automated shade that blocks the sun on game day. A dedicated pool bath and laundry mean the party stays outside, exactly where it belongs. Over $300,000 was invested here, and the result is the kind of private outdoor environment that changes how a family actually lives -- fewer weekends away, more evenings at home. Additional improvements include an architectural shingle roof replaced in Summer 2023, whole-home water filtration, SafeT Systems security cameras, and a garage with an epoxy floor and custom cabinetry.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a property where the immense investment in time, resources, and thoughtful design has already been made for you.
