Three Knoxville homes, one in Maryville and one in Louisville made up the five highest-priced home sales reported in the Knoxville metro area for the week ending October 11, 2026. Together they sold for $15.729 million.
The list mixes large custom homes on the Knoxville side of the market with a country property and a newer home in a gated community, both in Blount County. Two of the five sales topped $5 million, and all five are single-family homes.
No. 1 — $5,800,000 · 1945 Oakleigh Way, Knoxville, Tennessee
The week’s top sale is a stone-and-brick home on 4.03 private, wooded acres inside a gated community in Knoxville, and it sold for $5,800,000. Built in 2008 as a custom Schmid & Rhodes design in a Traditional style, it has the most living space of the five homes, 11,476 square feet, along with five bedrooms and nine bathrooms, seven full and two half, the most bathrooms in this Top 5. The property last sold for $3.35 million in 2021.
A circular drive leads to the entrance, and the foyer has high ceilings and two staircases. On the main level, a paneled study connects to an updated kitchen with a Wolf range and a large island, and there is a keeping room as well. A locker-style mudroom and one of the home’s two laundry rooms are on the same floor. The primary suite is also on the main level, and each of its two closets has its own center island. Upstairs, a bunkroom gives family and guests extra space. The home has eight fireplaces.
The finished lower level, which has an exterior entry, adds a full bar, a wine cellar, a sauna, an office and a theater room prepared for a golf simulator. Outside, Phantom screens and heaters let the main porch be used in every season. The grounds include an in-ground pool and spa with a tanning shelf, a separate pool pavilion, an outdoor bar and gas torches, and a lower terrace has a tall stone fireplace.
The home went under contract the same day it was listed. Debaran Hughes of Realty Executives Associates was the listing agent. Realty Executives Associates also listed the fifth-ranked home in this Top 5.

A custom wood staircase climbs to a third bedroom with its own bath and a lofted family room with built-in shelving and a window seat.
