About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Welcome to Chez Leray!
Welcome to Chez Leray, our peaceful downtown-adjacent getaway! Enjoy a unique home in a charming neighborhood minutes from downtown, conveniently located just off I-40 / I-275 exit.
Our quiet street is perfect for families wanting to take a morning walk, sit on the front porch, or enjoy a fire in the backyard. And our proximity to downtown is a great fit for anyone wanting to be out & about and enjoy all that Knoxville has to offer!
You can even hear Neyland Stadium from our porch.
The space
Our historic Queen Anne's Victorian home, built in 1899, has a spacious living area, small kitchen & bathroom downstairs, as well as three bedrooms & another full bathroom upstairs. The front porch has a large stoop, perfect for sitting & waving to neighbors, and the large backyard features a fire pit and several outdoor seating areas to enjoy the Tennessee mountain weather.
You’ll also be enthusiastically greeted by our backyard welcoming committee lead, Meatloaf — he’s a very friendly Siamese cat who has his own outdoor setup but is always happy to hang out & receive attention if you’re so inclined. :)
Guest access
Guests are welcome to the entire space, with the exception of the owner's closet downstairs & an outdoor storage area in the back. The property is accessible via spare key that guests can keep with them throughout the stay (although please don’t forget to leave it when you depart!).
Hosts stay nearby when Chez Leray is booked; we're happy to come say hi, answer any questions, or provide support as needed but will not be staying in the house while guests are present.
Additional note
We love our home and want to be clear with our guests that this space is just that — our home. We find it cozy & comfortable, and we are aware that it might not meet the expectations of guests looking for a more glamorous, 5-star experience. We welcome feedback & are always happy to hear ideas for ways to improve. :)
