Public Remarks: Built in 1889, the Lou-Mar House is a stunning Queen Anne Victorian gem and one of Knoxville's most iconic residences. Designed by French-born architect David Getaz, whose works include the Knox County Courthouse and the Masonic Temple in Wilmington, NC, the home reflects Getaz's legacy of craftsmanship. The Lou-Mar House has been home to prominent families, including the Getaz and Sterchi families, and remains one of the finest examples of its architectural style in East Tennessee. This stunning home has been featured in HGTV & Knox News Sentinel. Upon entering through double etched-glass doors, visitors are greeted by a grand foyer with six different species of wood, showcasing the home's unique craftsmanship. The parlor features a custom mural by artist Mara Wilson, depicting the Knox County Courthouse, designed by Getaz. The gentleman's parlor has been transformed into a custom library with maple woodwork, while the formal dining room boasts a stunning boxed beam ceiling. Throughout the first floor, you'll find exceptional woodwork, intricate moldings, wainscoting, and period lighting. Nine stained-glass windows and five ornamental fireplaces add to the home's historic charm. Many of the windows have been rebuilt, and in 2023, high-efficiency windows were installed in the family room addition. A 5-ton, multi-zone HVAC system, added in 2022, ensures year-round comfort on the second and third floors. The primary en suite bathroom is a luxurious retreat, featuring marble from Artistic Tile, custom cabinetry, and Rohl hardware. The first-floor bathrooms have been renovated with similar high-end finishes. The outdoor kitchen, completed in 2021, offers an exceptional space for entertaining, featuring Blaze grilling and refrigeration products, a gas fireplace, and a Sonos outdoor speaker system. The landscaped grounds provide ample space for outdoor living. In addition to the main house, the property includes a fully renovated carriage house and workshop. The main house offers six bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a library, and a family room addition with a three-car garage beneath. The renovated carriage house, completed in 2021, has two bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms, ideal for guests or additional living space. The property sits on a double lot at the corner of Scott and Harvey Streets, with a fully fenced yard and an automated gate providing security and easy access to the back drive. Located just minutes from downtown Knoxville, the Lou-Mar House offers both historic charm and modern living. It's within walking distance of Happy Holler's restaurants and KBrew Coffee, and a short bike ride to Gay Street for shopping and dining, or to the University of Tennessee for game days. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is just 45 minutes away, and Beaumont, Knoxville's art magnet elementary school, is less than two miles away. This rare estate offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Knoxville's history while enjoying the comforts of modern living. Whether you're entertaining in the outdoor kitchen, relaxing in the library, or appreciating the home's timeless architecture, the Lou-Mar House offers a lifestyle unlike any other in Knoxville.
