A remarkable custom renovation in The Westlands brings together contemporary style, luxurious finishes, and the ease of low-maintenance living in one beautifully designed home. This three-bedroom, three-bath condo makes an immediate impression with its gated brick patio entry, landscaped surroundings, and distinctive architectural character.

At the heart of the home, the cathedral great room delivers a dramatic focal point with a floor-to-ceiling marble slab fireplace, gas logs, natural skylights, and a striking circular brass chandelier. The living space is both refined and inviting, with an entertainment alcove that includes a built-in dry bar, cabinetry, honed black marble top, and full-size glass-front beverage and wine cooler—ideal for hosting or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home.

Just beyond, the formal dining room opens into an impressive chef’s kitchen designed for both beauty and function. Custom cabinetry, white marble countertops accented with touches of black, premium Thor stainless appliances, and an abundance of prep and serving space make this kitchen a standout feature. Whether preparing an everyday meal or entertaining guests, this space offers the kind of thoughtful design that supports it all with style.

The main-level primary suite continues the home’s elevated aesthetic with serene finishes and generous comfort. The bath includes double vanities with storage, a private water closet, and a spa-inspired soaking tub and walk-in shower combination with elegant tile details. A spacious closet provides excellent organization, while French doors open directly to the sunroom, creating a peaceful connection to the natural light and garden views beyond.

A second main-level bedroom offers its own distinctive appeal, featuring a beautifully finished bath with an emerald tile marble waterfall shower, sophisticated vanity, and polished lighting details. A sliding door opens to a large patio and landscaped green space, extending the living experience outdoors and offering another inviting setting for relaxing or entertaining.

Throughout the main level, grey-tone hardwood plank floors add warmth and continuity, while architectural trim and custom finishes enhance every room. The sunroom spanning the back of the residence is especially inviting, filled with natural light and garden vistas that create an ideal setting for morning coffee, reading, or quiet conversation.

Upstairs, even more versatility awaits. The third bedroom includes a private bath, extra storage closets, and access to a vaulted alcove that could serve as an exercise area, hobby space, reading nook, or additional accommodations for guests. A separate storage or wrapping room and floored attic space above the garage add functionality that is often hard to find in condo living.

Beyond the home itself, The Westlands offers a lifestyle that is equally appealing, with gated security, beautifully maintained grounds, tree-lined streets, open green space, and access to a newly renovated clubhouse and pool. It is a setting that pairs privacy and beauty with convenience and comfort.

This thoughtfully reimagined residence is a standout opportunity for anyone seeking sophisticated design, exceptional finishes, and a gracious lifestyle in one of Knoxville’s most established communities.
