Welcome to 178 West Norris Road! This beauty offers the more contemporary side of living in Norris with the old school charm of the city still right down the sidewalk. With an abundance of windows, the feeling inside is bright and cheery, open and airy while still being nestled in the woods. This home features the primary suite on the main level with its spa-like bathroom and generous walk-in closet. Also found on the main level is a half bathroom for guests. The living room with its soaring ceilings and windows and the gas fireplace makes an exquisite place to spend time in all seasons. Between the living room and kitchen is a formal dining room which would also make a great music room with the spinet piano which does convey. The kitchen is very stylish and functional and includes a voluminous pantry. A glass door leads from the kitchen onto the newly rebuilt rear deck with its maintenance free composite decking (also found on the front porch). Upstairs has two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a sizable common hang-out space. The basement features another half bath, laundry room, and a large 'recreation' room which currently houses a complete rock climbing gym. There are French doors leading from this room (currently blocked by aforementioned climbing gym) to the immense octagonal rear deck and back yard. The garage features a large work bench and cabinets and one of the garage doors has been expanded to 9' tall to accommodate travel vans or tall trucks. Additionally, the rain gutters have all been upgraded to 6' with leaf guards. Of course, included with all this is all that the town of Norris provides- sidewalks everywhere, community schools and library, tons of organized activities for all ages, recreational facilities, world class fishing and boating in Norris Lake and the Clinch River, and the pièce de résistance, the Norris Watershed- 2,300 acres of undeveloped woods, filled with miles of multi-use trails, directly adjoining the city. With easy interstate access, downtown Knoxville is a mere 25 drive, remaining completely accessible while you live in absolute peace and harmony with East TN nature.
