Welcome to the most charming 1920's home, nestled on a corner lot in one of North Chattanooga's most desirable neighborhoods. With two or three bedroom options and two full bathrooms, this home beautifully blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates.
Step into the cozy living room, where a gas fireplace is framed on one side by original built-in bookcases and will invite you to relax and unwind. The third bedroom option, once a quiet study, has been transformed into a welcoming space with a custom Murphy bed and shelving--perfect for guests, a flexible home office or versatile use.
The heart of the home, the kitchen, is full of character with original built-in cabinetry, floating shelves and coffee bar, custom window treatments, a spacious walk-in pantry and a lovely breakfast nook with a built-in storage bench--a perfect spot for morning coffee. The laundry room is conveniently located on the main level next to the Kitchen.
There is also a separate dining room, flooded with natural light, making it the ideal setting to gather for meals and conversation. An easy, open flow from Kitchen to Dining Room to Living Room, you'll find it accommodates a nice crowd with room to spread out and entertain. And, with holidays around the corner, it's sure to be a popular meeting place for family and friends.
Throughout the home, fresh modern paint colors complement the warmth of the hardwood floors and tile, creating such an inviting atmosphere. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with a newly expanded closet featuring decorative sliding doors for easy access. The en-suite bathroom showcases exposed brick from the original fireplace and a luxurious custom glass shower, where old-world charm meets modern elegance. Outside, the fenced-in back yard and patio is wonderful for gathering with friends and family and your pets will love it, too! The detached one-car garage has been completely reconstructed, renovated and converted into a fitness space with new garage door and opener, separate side entry door, new concrete floor, decorative shiplap, new ceiling and wall fans, wall mirror and exterior sconce lighting. This multi-use space is such a great addition to the home--could be used as a work out gym, private office space, study or playroom, craft or hobby room, music studio, vehicle storage, etc.
A concrete pad provides convenient and ample off-street parking. And don't miss the quaint, covered front porch with its hanging swing, a vintage style favorite. It's sure to beckon you to sit back and enjoy the neighborhood's welcoming atmosphere.
Improvements include: reconstructed garage, new back glass storm door, Ring flood light, custom bamboo blinds, custom draperies, new induction double oven/range, new kitchen faucet set, new ceiling fans throughout, new bathroom light fixtures, expanded primary closet, new shower head, sealed brick in primary bath, foundation work to secure columns, new chimney cap, new ceiling fans and new toilets in both bathrooms. This one is really turn key with all the fantastic improvements already done for you--it's move-in ready!
And buyers take note, this home is zoned for the award winning Normal Park school zone (K-8). Just a leisurely stroll to the new and improved Riverview Park, trendy local restaurants and shopping, plus only 5 minutes from downtown Chattanooga. This home offers not only a warm and inviting space but also a location that truly can't be beat!
