KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- A 7,200+ square foot custom home privately tucked away on more than two acres of land featuring unique luxury amenities including an indoor pool and hot tub will sell at auction, Concierge Auctions has announced.

Previously listed for $1.9 million, the sale is being conducted in cooperation with listing agent Debbie Elliott-Sexton of Alliance Sotheby's International Realty.

"Custom ironwork surrounding the estate sets the tone that this is a special place. The details and amenities are rare and extraordinary, particularly the large lot and indoor pool," Elliott-Sexton stated. "This auction presents a significant opportunity to own a Southern gem for your own bid price. The seller is motivated to find a new owner next month, and we look forward to working with Concierge Auctions to make that happen."

The gated drive off of Shinnecock Lane provides a grand entrance to this 7,273-square-foot custom home, a five-bedroom estate perfectly situated on over two acres of manicured grounds.
