Alright, so a while back I got it into my head that I wanted to find out more about Todd Helton’s place in Knoxville, Tennessee. You know, the retired baseball player? Played for the Colorado Rockies. I’d heard rumors about a fancy house on the river, and I just got curious. What can I say? I have a thing for cool houses.
First thing I did was hit up Google. Of course. Typed in “Todd Helton house Knoxville TN”, and boom, there it was. A bunch of articles popped up about this “stunning waterside retreat” on the Tennessee River. Some real estate site even had an asking price of $2,295 for a different property of his, but not much more info than that.
Then I dug a little deeper. Found some contact info, phone numbers, and emails related to a Todd Helton in Knoxville. Looked like a rabbit hole, but then… gold! I stumbled upon this address: 1249 Madison Oaks Rd, Knoxville, TN. Bingo. This had to be it.
I plugged that address into a map website, and sure enough, it showed a big house right on the river. It looked pretty impressive from the satellite view. You could tell it was a nice piece of property.
After that, I started reading up more about Todd Helton himself. Turns out he played football at the University of Tennessee before his baseball career. Pretty cool. There was also a random quote I found about him calling his ranch the “Redneck Disneyland.” Haha, made me chuckle.
So, I didn’t actually go to the house or anything. I mean, that would be weird, right? I just used the power of the internet to find it, I even used the email address I found support@* to ask for some extra information, but they did not reply me. But it was a fun little adventure, satisfying my curiosity about this baseball legend’s riverside digs.
