Fall in love with this delightful piece of Chattanooga history nestled on the backside of Missionary Ridge. This 1940s gem radiates timeless appeal while offering the comfort and convenience that modern homeowners desire. Conveniently located just ten minutes from downtown Chattanooga, this three-bedroom, two bathroom, one-level home offers a great opportunity for a wide variety of homebuyers. Whether you're looking for your first home or an investor on the hunt for the next addition to your portfolio; this home stands above the rest.
Built in 1940 and thoughtfully updated through the years, charm and character abound. Before you enter the home, you're greeted by a stunning magnolia tree in the front yard along with the sweet scent of jasmine weaving through the front garden. Step inside and you'll appreciate the beautiful oak floors that flow throughout the main living spaces, telling the story of decades of cherished memories. The elegant archway connecting the living room to the dining area provides architectural character of a time gone by creating a natural entertaining flow while maintaining distinct spaces.
The kitchen has been updated in recent years with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. The kitchen opens to an expansive back deck - perfect for morning coffee, afternoon barbecues, and evening cocktails. Stairs from the deck lead down to a level yard, which offers endless possibilities for gardening enthusiasts, play areas for pets and/or kids, or you could consider adding an accessory dwelling unit for additional living space as a future value add.
Back inside the home, the bedrooms are set apart from the entertaining spaces. Two generously sized guest bedrooms located at the start and the end of the hall flank the hall bathroom. The primary suite is a wonderful retreat adorned with two skylights and a pocket door leading into the ensuite bathroom. The gold accents in the bathroom add a touch of elegance, paired with the clawfoot tub, dual basin sinks, in-bathroom laundry, and a sizable walk-in closet.
Located in a well-established neighborhood just minutes from downtown, this home combines vintage charm with an ideal location. Don't miss your opportunity to make this home yours!
