Welcome to 197 Whippoorwill Drive, a custom-built 3-bedroom, 3-bath home nestled in one of Oak Ridge's most sought-after wooded neighborhoods. Backing directly to green space and walking trails, this beautifully maintained home offers exceptional privacy, flexibility, and more than 3,200 square feet of finished living space designed for comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining.
The main level features a spacious primary suite, a light-filled sunroom overlooking the trees, an oversized formal dining room, and an open-concept kitchen with abundant cabinetry, expansive counter space, double ovens, a large center island, and generous storage. Hardwood flooring, tile surfaces, a gas fireplace, and thoughtful architectural details create a warm, inviting atmosphere.
Major recent improvements provide exceptional value and peace of mind, including a new roof, new gutters, new garage doors, fresh interior paint, LED lighting throughout, a whole-home water filtration system, and new Pella windows on both the upper and lower levels.
One of the home's most impressive features is its incredible expansion potential. In addition to the finished living space, you'll find approximately 1,800 square feet of unfinished space, including a full walkout basement already plumbed for a fourth bathroom and additional upper-level rooms ready for future customization. Create the guest suite, home theater, gym, office, workshop, studio, or additional bedrooms you've always wanted.
Outside, mature trees and established landscaping create a peaceful East Tennessee retreat just minutes from Oak Ridge National Laboratory, shopping, dining, parks, and convenient access to Knoxville.
With a desirable main-level living design, a three-car garage, extensive recent updates, unmatched expansion potential, and a recent price improvement to $659,900, this is a rare opportunity in one of Oak Ridge's premier neighborhoods. Join us for the Open House this Sunday from 2:00-4:00 PM, or schedule your private showing today.
