Property Description
Set on just over 18 rolling acres in Knoxville's historic Lakemoor Hills community, Speedwell Manor offers an extraordinary combination of architectural character, expansive living space, and unmatched setting. The residence features six bedrooms, including a private apartment above the garage, four full bathrooms and one half bathroom. This estate boasts light-filled rooms, all original hardwood floors, nine fireplaces and soaring windows The remarkable historic millwork and architectural details have been lovingly maintained with added character throughout the home. Generously sized living and gathering spaces flow through the home, each offering its own character--from elegant formal rooms framed by stately windows and chandeliers to intimate spaces filled with warmth and history. All new interior paint and central heating and air have been added to the home in 2026. Tucked just beyond the main residence, stands the original brick smokehouse that was also a part of the original estate. The home's preserved finishes and craftsmanship serve as a beautiful reminder of its nearly two-century story while offering endless opportunity for its next owner to make the estate their own.
Beyond the residence, more than 18 acres of mature trees, sweeping lawns, and open green space create a setting that feels remarkably private while remaining just minutes from downtown Knoxville. The expansive grounds offer endless possibilities for gardens, recreation, entertaining, events, or simply enjoying the estate as it has been enjoyed for generations. An attached garage, additional living quarters, basement space, historic family cemetery, grand columned porch, and unforgettable views across the property further distinguish this truly one-of-a-kind offering. Speedwell Manor is more than a historic home--it is a rare opportunity to own, preserve, and shape the next chapter of one of East Tennessee's most remarkable estates.
