505 Union Ave

A converted 1930s loft-style condominium building located on a quiet block one short block from Knoxville’s Market Square. The structure preserves historic industrial character—exposed beams, large original multi-pane windows, brick accents and hardwood floors—while offering elevator access and updated mechanicals. Units are primarily one-bedroom or studio lofts with tall, cathedral-like ceilings, open kitchens with islands or peninsula bars, walk-in closets, and in-unit stackable laundry. Common building features include a secure entry, an on-site coffee shop at street level, and covered garage parking adjacent to the property. Interiors combine restored details with contemporary finishes such as leathered/granite or quartz counters, stainless appliances, motorized shades, and modern baths with tiled walk-in showers. The homeowners association restricts short-term rentals; pets are not specifically detailed in listings. Location-oriented lifestyle benefits include immediate pedestrian access to restaurants, theaters, the University of Tennessee, World's Fair Park, downtown greenways and the Old City entertainment district, making the building well-suited to residents who prioritize walkability and an active urban neighborhood.
