This adorable Hixson bungalow combines the character of a 1950s home with practical updates and nearly a full acre of property. The home is set well back from the road and offers single level living with hardwood floors, a fireplace, and an updated kitchen featuring butcher block countertops, white cabinetry, and a farmhouse apron sink.
Major improvements include a new roof and new septic field lines in 2025, new front porch steps and a new cellar access door with hydraulic lifts in 2026. The home also features a formal dining room, dedicated mudroom and laundry area, and a separate sitting room/bonus space connected to the spacious primary suite. The primary bedroom also includes a large walk in closet.
A covered front porch, rear dining deck, and expansive tree lined backyard provide plenty of outdoor living space. The home is located just down the street from Middle Valley Elementary with an easy 20 commute to Downtown Chattanooga. A solid, well-maintained gem for anyone looking for land, character, and location.
