Set on 8.8 gently rolling acres, this inviting country retreat captures the essence of Southern living while keeping you conveniently close to everyday essentials and just a comfortable drive to Chattanooga. It's the kind of place where mornings begin slowly, coffee in hand, and evenings wind down beneath open skies.
Inside, the home offers a warm, welcoming feel with thoughtful updates already in place, while still leaving room for you to add your own personal touch and bring your vision of a true Southern home to life. The kitchen features custom all-wood cabinetry crafted locally, paired with stainless steel appliances and a classic subway tile backsplash. New LVP flooring flows through the main living spaces, while ceramic tile grounds the kitchen with a polished finish. Natural light pours through a large living room window, creating a bright, comfortable space to relax and take in views of your land.
Flexibility is built into the layout, with a separate dining room that can easily serve as a fourth bedroom, home office, or hobby space. Recent improvements, including a new roof and hot water heater, add peace of mind, while fiber internet keeps you connected for work or entertainment. Out back, a private patio offers a quiet place to start or end the day surrounded by nature.
Step outside, and the property truly shines. With plenty of open space and usable land, you can bring your animals and embrace the farm life you've been dreaming of. Two established wells provide a great resource for gardening or livestock, while mature blueberry bushes offer a sweet seasonal bonus. A 12x16 shed with a lean-to adds functional storage, and the generous road frontage creates the perfect opportunity for a charming roadside farm stand.
This property is ready for its next chapter, offering the perfect blend of comfort, potential, and country freedom for those ready to create their own Southern lifestyle.
