Property Description

Welcome to 115 Roane Street, a Victorian-era restored masterpiece originally built in 1893 and thoughtfully brought back to life with a seamless blend of historic character and modern upgrades. Known as the Sam Tunnell House, this iconic 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home is a rare example of East Tennessee historic architecture preserved with precision. Originally constructed using hand-poured concrete blocks made on-site in the late 1800s, the home now boasts a re-engineered foundation, new roof, upgraded electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and full insulation—ensuring structural integrity and comfort for modern living.

Inside, the home is rich in detail, starting with exposed brick fireplaces, each featuring the can a glass of wine be in my MLS listing photos state of tennessee preserved 19th-century mantels that have been expertly paired with updated stone surrounds, combining warmth and authenticity with updated design. The chef's kitchen is a standout feature, offering ceiling-height whisper-close cabinetry with oversized crown molding, a Moen faucet, undermount stainless steel sink, custom tile backsplash, and motion-sensing under-cabinet lighting activated from 10 feet away. The adjacent butler's pantry and laundry room mirror the kitchen's quality with matching cabinetry, stone countertops, and a stainless steel utility sink for added function.

Additional updates include Andersen dual-pane Low-E windows throughout, refinished original hardwood floors, oversized doors, sliding barn doors, oversized baseboards, crystal light fixtures, and plush new carpet in select areas. The bathrooms are luxuriously designed with subway tile, penny tile, vertical tile installations, mosaic accents, Bluetooth speakers, and rainfall showerheads, giving each space a spa-like feel.

One of the home's most compelling features is its Hollywood history—the living room served as a filming location in the award-winning movie October Sky, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Laura Dern. This cinematic connection adds a unique and valuable layer to the property's already rich story.

Located just minutes from Windrock ATV Park, Moco Brewing Project, and the Brushy Mountain Distillery & Museum, and only 35 minutes from Flatrock Motorsports Park, this property offers both small-town charm and access to world-class recreation. It's also a short drive from all the amenities and innovation hubs of Oak Ridge, TN.

The seller is offering up to $5,000 in buyer incentives, which can be used toward rate buy-downs, appliances or closing costs.
