Architectural character, timeless design, and thoughtful updates come together in this Ridgefields mid-century modern.

Believed to have been designed by esteemed architect William Hamilton Wallace, this home is perfectly positioned to capture both the sunrise and sunset. Begin your mornings in the light-filled living space and unwind each evening on the peaceful and inviting front porch.

Open flow and multiple gathering spaces–inside and out–make this a home for entertaining. There is one small step leading inside, and interior accessibility is excellent.

Clerestory windows surround the living room and fill the house with natural light. The 11-foot ceiling creates an open, airy atmosphere, and the dramatic floor-to-ceiling, double-sided fireplace serves as the centerpiece of both the living and dining rooms.

The updated kitchen features quality soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, and newer dishwasher and refrigerator. Between the kitchen and the carport entry is a dedicated laundry room with a utility sink and cabinetry including pantry storage.

You will love the renovated primary suite with custom tile shower, dual sinks, extra electrical outlets, spacious walk-in closet, and abundant storage throughout.

Guests will have their own private space with a well-appointed bath featuring a double vanity and soaking tub.

The sunroom provides versatile flex space for additional living, dining, or recreation and access to the deck and back yard. A built-in desk and custom storage creates the perfect dedicated home office without sacrificing openness.

Improvements include extensive plumbing and electrical updates, a commercial-grade insulated roof, maple engineered hardwood throughout, and many additional enhancements (ask your Realtor for the seller’s Highlight Sheet).

The 0.62-acre lot has a big, fenced back yard, perfect for play, pets, and outdoor entertaining. And parking is abundant, with a double carport, detached two-car garage with workbench and overhead storage, and expansive wraparound concrete driveway that leads to an additional rear parking pad.

Ridgefields is an active, welcoming neighborhood with a City park, and direct access to the Kingsport Greenbelt, Riverfront Park, the new Riverwalk Park, and Downtown Kingsport. And for an additional fee, nearby Ridgefields Golf and Athletic Club offers swimming, golfing, tennis, and a fitness center.
