About This Property
Rarely does a property like this come available: a character-filled residence inside the historic Emporium Building on the 100 Block of Gay Street. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit pairs 1890s architecture with modern convenience — soaring ceilings, exposed brick walls, and a wall of oversized arched windows that flood the open living space with natural light and frame views out over Gay Street itself. The kitchen offers stainless steel appliances and a large center island. Rich hardwood floors run throughout, and an in-unit washer and dryer add everyday convenience. Originally built in the 1890s, the Emporium sits in the heart of Knoxville's Arts District — just a short distance from Market Square, the Old City, and the new Knoxville Smokies Stadium. Residents enjoy access to a spacious shared courtyard, and the building is pet-friendly. With approved short-term rental capability, this unit offers rare flexibility as a primary residence, a second home, or an income-producing investment in one of Knoxville's best neighborhoods. Taxes are based on estimated amounts.
