Boyd Harvey Main House & Carriage House by RedAwning
Built in 1835 the Boyd Harvey House has a history rich in southern
agriculture, commerce, and traditions. It is a beautiful architectural example
of a pre-Civil War, brick, Federal-style, farmhouse and represents one of the
12 pre-Civil War brick homes still standing in Knoxville. Inspired by living
in this unique home, the beautiful East Tennessee area, and from growing up in
Asheville, NC, current owner, Anne Tillotson White allowed the perfect synergy
between preservation and luxury.

Carriage House! The quaint two acre property has a historical zone overlay and

University of Tennessee Graduation Weekend
Great location, nice surrounding properties, convenient to grocery store, grounds and house were absolutely gorgeous. The barn was a perfect spot to hang out with our recent college graduate with an animal science degree. We are already planning a trip back.
