Hidden in plain sight on one of 12 South’s most peaceful pockets, this nearly 100 year old charmer blends storybook curb appeal with a layout that lives surprisingly modern. The white picket fence and deep front porch aren’t just for show - they’re an invitation to slow down. Morning coffee in the rocker. Friendly waves to neighbors. Porch lights glowing at dusk. Inside, the home carries that rare sense of warmth and curiosity only time can create — layered with thoughtful updates, soulful details, and a floor plan that delivers on today’s function. Over the years, the sellers have poured love into every corner, investing in upgrades that enhance both aesthetic and utility — all with an eye toward ensuring the home is as ready for its next century as it was for its first. The main level features a spacious primary suite with dual custom closets and a polished en suite bath, plus a second bedroom perfect for guests or office use. Upstairs offers two more bedrooms and a generous bonus room with its own study nook — ideal for play, creativity, or work-from-home versatility. A screened-in porch gives you fresh-air seclusion without the seasonal swatting, and the entire home has just been refreshed with new paint and refinished hardwood floors. There’s even a unicorn for this part of town — an attached single-car garage. Positioned near everything you love about 12 South — Sevier Park, local coffee, dinner dates, boutiques — but tucked just far enough off the main stretch to feel like home.
