McCamy on the Market: Forest Brook new construction home
Tuesday, September 26th, 2023
Another month brings another completed project. This time, the McCamy Construction team put their expert heads together for a new build in Forest Brook that hit the market last week. This home is a classic take on current trends and blends a farmhouse look with more contemporary design. Tucked on a private lot in the beautiful Rocky Hill neighborhood, this home is the perfect place for a growing family to lay down their Knoxville roots.
The Perfect Spot
When the opportunity to build on this lot became available, the McCamy team was eager to be part of developing such a special neighborhood. The homes in Forest Brook are classic and cozy, and the neighborhood itself has a welcoming charm that draws in residents. Finding a lot in this idyllic neighborhood is rare, and while the homes are full of classic character, very few are large enough for a growing family. Our McCamy owners decided this was a lack they could contribute to.
The Rocky Hill location means great schools, proximity to local shops and restaurants and that iconic Knoxville feel. It’s one of the more coveted locations to raise a family, but like many Tennessee towns, the demand is higher than the supply. There is simply not enough family-friendly real estate to house the folks looking to relocate to this area.
A “Growing” Problem
This year, we completed a 2000-square-foot addition to a Forest Brook home that our clients’ family was busting out of. This project allowed them to keep their location and remain in the home they loved, keeping the quaint, cottage feel without the quaint, cottage size. This project and others like it contributed to the plans for our new build right down the road. We wanted this home to have the quality craftsmanship and classic style of the homes in this neighborhood, as well as plenty of room for a young family to grow into.
Expertly Designed
Five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 3200 square feet later, this house is ready to be made into a home. We adjusted the building plans to incorporate even more functional space with an office, bonus room, formal dining room, and large open living area. With so many rooms to spread out, these spaces can be multifunctional to fit the needs of whomever gets to call this place “home.”
The kitchen is functional and spacious, designed by McCamy designer, Ashley Jones. She chose shaker-style cabinets, marble backsplash, and a mix of black and gold fixtures. Plenty of cabinet space, including a coffee bar area and pantry storage, makes this kitchen as practical as it is pretty!
The primary bathroom is another classically beautiful space with contemporary touches that make it feel current. This room is spacious with a double vanity and a walk-in shower fit for a queen! The other bathrooms and powder room reflect similar contemporary styles that will be the perfect foundation for new owners to add their personal touches.
The McCamy crew is so proud of how this new construction project turned out, and we can’t wait to see it become “home sweet home” to its future owners! If you’re interested in scheduling a showing, please contact Chad Copenhaver or view the listing here.
