The Lyons View Pike estate went under contract the same day the current listing went live and closed at its full asking price, one of five reported sales across the Knoxville metro area that combined for $14.39 million in the week ending September 20, 2026.
Private docks sit at both ends of the ranking, on the leading sale in Sequoyah Hills and on the fifth-ranked house on Fort Loudoun Lake in Friendsville’s Rio Vista. In between, the week’s addresses run from Wellsley Park in West Knoxville out to Loudon, and two of the houses were completed this year.
No. 1 — $6,200,000 · 5020 Lyons View Pike, Knoxville, Tennessee
A Tudor estate built in 1920 on Lyons View Pike sold for $6,200,000, the highest reported price in the Knoxville metro area for the week. The house stands on 1.9 acres of waterfront ground in the Sequoyah Hills area, inside the Knoxville city limits, with lake views across expansive grounds. The transaction closed on September 18, 2026, and the property previously changed hands for $3,700,000 in 2018.
Six bedrooms, five full baths and four half baths are spread across a reported 8,282 square feet, with five fireplaces and a glass-enclosed room wrapped in windows that overlooks the property. The residence is light-filled throughout, with rooms scaled for both everyday use and entertaining.
Outside, a large fenced backyard framed by mature trees opens onto views of the surrounding East Tennessee landscape, and the waterfront setting includes a private dock with a dedicated lift for access down to the water. A detached two-car garage adds parking and storage and carries a guest apartment above it. Downtown Knoxville, restaurants, shopping and schools sit close by.
