π₯ $354K Knoxville STR in a Walkable Hotspot (Rare Entry Price)
ποΈ 2BR New Build β’ STR-Friendly HOA β’ Walk to Everything
π₯ This Is a Different Kind of STR Play
Most STR deals are:
Remote cabins
Beach houses
Seasonal markets
This one is different.
π Urban, walkable, lifestyle-driven STR

This is exactly the kind of product that:
π Books easily
π Runs efficiently
π Attracts younger, higher-frequency travelers
π« STR-Friendly = Huge Advantage
Letβs keep this simple:
π HOA does NOT restrict short-term rentals
Thatβs rare. Especially in a walkable urban area.
No guessing. No gray area.
π You can actually operate here.
π Location = The Entire Play
This is where the deal really wins.
Youβre in Happy Holler / Old North Knoxville β one of the most:
Walkable
Local
Experience-driven pockets in the city
Guests can walk to:
β Wild Love Bakehouse
π» Yee-Haw Brewing
π΄ Central Flats & Taps
π Three Rivers Market
This is not a βplace to stayβ β itβs a place to experience.
π That drives bookings.
π― Why This Works as an STR

People are shifting toward:
π Walkable, local, authentic stays
This hits that perfectly.
2. ποΈ 2BR Layout = High Utilization
Couples
Small groups
Weekend travelers
π Easier to fill than large homes
π Higher occupancy consistency
3. π New Build = No Headaches
No renovations

π The Upside
This is a blank canvas in a good way.
Ways to push revenue:

Add small touches (coffee setup, local guide, etc.)
This is about execution, not heavy lifting.
πΈ Financing Angle
At this price point, this becomes even more interesting.
Lower entry + STR-friendly zoning = very financeable, scalable deal.
