About the host
Hosted by Scott Moats
We’re happiest when we’re out experiencing life together. Traveling is one of our favorite things to do — whether it’s exploring a new city, relaxing near the water, or planning our next weekend getaway. We love the excitement of live sports events, the energy of great music, and finding those local restaurants and coffee shops that make a place feel special.
Some of our favorite moments are the simple ones — good coffee in the morning, great food in the evening, and sharing new experiences along the way. We both enjoy discovering places that have character, meeting new people, and making memories wherever we go. For us, it’s less about where we are and more about enjoying the journey together.
Why they chose this property
Downtown Knoxville has a mix of historic charm, walkability, and an active local culture that makes it feel lively without being overwhelming. It’s one of those places where old architecture, local businesses, and community events all blend together.
A few things that make downtown Knoxville stand out:
Market Square This is really the heart of downtown. It’s lined with local restaurants, coffee shops, and small businesses, and there’s almost always something happening — farmers markets, live music, festivals, or just people gathering. It feels social and welcoming.
Local food and coffee culture Downtown Knoxville is known for its independent restaurants, breweries, and coffee shops rather than chains. You can grab craft coffee in the morning, casual lunch spots during the day, and nicer dinner options at night — all within a few blocks.
Historic character You’ll see brick buildings, preserved storefronts, and renovated warehouses that give downtown personality. Gay Street, in particular, has a classic feel with theaters, rooftop spaces, and views of the Tennessee River.
World’s Fair Park & the Sunsphere This area gives downtown some open green space and one of Knoxville’s most recognizable landmarks. It’s a nice contrast to the city blocks and a common place for events.
Sports and university energy With the University of Tennessee nearby, there’s always Vols energy, especially during football season. Game days bring a lot of excitement to downtown restaurants and bars.
Walkability One of downtown Knoxville’s biggest strengths is that you can park once and explore on foot, moving easily between food, music, shops, and events.
What makes this property unique
Sterchi Lofts already has a built-in advantage — it’s one of the most recognizable historic buildings in downtown Knoxville. That alone gives your rental a character most units can’t replicate. Here’s what likely makes your unit stand out:
Historic character + modern comfort Sterchi Lofts combines early-1900s architecture with updated interiors. Features like exposed brick, large windows, tall ceilings, and open loft layouts create a space that feels authentic to downtown Knoxville rather than just another apartment.
True downtown location Guests can walk to Market Square, Gay Street, the Tennessee Theatre, restaurants, coffee shops, and UT events in minutes. Being able to park once and explore the city on foot is a huge draw.
The “loft experience” travelers look for Many visitors specifically search for industrial-style loft stays when visiting a city. The Sterchi building delivers that urban, historic-city feel people don’t get from hotels or newer condos.
Natural light and views Sterchi units typically have large windows and great natural light, which makes the space feel open and inviting — something guests consistently notice in reviews.
A stay that feels local Instead of feeling like a generic rental, staying in Sterchi Lofts feels like living in downtown Knoxville, which is exactly what many travelers want.
