Welcome to the Lemon Tree House, your serene getaway! Nestled on 1.5 private acres with tranquil views and no traffic, this spacious 3-bedroom home is the perfect blend of seclusion & city access.

Located just 0.4 miles from the lake and a short drive to downtown Knoxville, you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the huge screened-in porch, exploring local trails, or heading into the city for football, dinner, or dancing, this home is your ideal home base.

Tucked away, this 2,200 sq ft home is a clean, comfortable space to land—whether you're on vacation, working remotely, visiting family, or just passing through.

The layout is simple and open. Upstairs, you'll find a connected living room, dining area, and kitchen that flow out to a large screened-in porch with a 55” outdoor TV. It’s the kind of space where you can drink coffee in your pajamas, cook dinner on the grill, or watch a game while the sun sets. There’s corn hole, places to lounge, and enough space to be together or spread out.

With 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and a half bath, plus beautifully designed showers and cozy, luxe corners for reading or resting, The Lemon Tree House welcomes you to drop your shoulders, slow down, and stay awhile.

Whether you're gathering with family, traveling solo, or celebrating a special moment... this home is a soft landing for YOU.

About the host

Hosted by Adrienne Ziarkowski

Host profile image
I’m Adrianne! Traveling is one of my greatest passions—it's why I host. Over the years, the incredible people I’ve met around the world have deepened my appreciation for what makes a stay truly special: the comforts you need, the joy of feeling at home somewhere new, and the beauty of meeting fellow travelers.
From Iceland’s wild oceans to Prague’s cobblestone streets, Costa Rica’s lush canopies, and the rich, warm sunsets of Lake Tahoe, every journey has inspired me to share that same warmth with others.
Other than this, I’m a business coach who loves people, art, and dancing. A former professional ballet dancer, I now compete in country ballroom dancing. Tennessee will always have my heart - but not sure where you'll find me next!

Why they chose this property

The serenity here will make you never want to leave!

What makes this property unique

The screened-in porch, overlooking the forest and the tree-lined field, is the perfect place to slow down and reset before diving back into life. In the living room, I chose a lemon tree mural for its timeless symbolism. Lemons are known for their balance—bitter yet refreshing, cleansing, and renewing. In ancient traditions, the lemon tree was even associated with the Virgin Mary, a symbol of purity and resilience. Personally, I love lemons so much I’ll peel and eat them whole! My hope is that your time here softens any bitterness you’ve carried, gives you space to breathe, and offers you a fresh start.
