Charming 2-Bedroom Apartment in Historic Samuel Read House- Fort Wood Neighborhood
Step into a piece of Chattanooga history with this rare 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo located in the iconic Samuel Read House Mansion, nestled in the heart of the Fort Wood Historic District. Originally completed in 1906 and thoughtfully converted into elegant condominiums later in the century, this distinguished residence offers timeless appeal blended with contemporary convenience.
This unique two-level home features its own private entrance in addition to access through the mansion's grand central lobby, offering both privacy and architectural splendor. The spacious primary suite is located on the lower level and opens directly to a charming courtyard, creating a quiet retreat in the middle of downtown.
Upstairs, the light-filled living area, with its refinished original white oak hardwood floors and second bedroom (or sitting room), combines historic details—such as soaring ceilings, built-in shelving, and classic finishes—with modern updates for comfortable everyday living.
Located adjacent to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, this condo places you in the vibrant core of the city, with restaurants, shops, and parks just steps away.
Fort Wood is more than a picturesque neighborhood—it's a thriving, tight-knit community. Residents come together regularly for monthly gatherings, porch parties, and neighborhood events, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that's rare in urban settings. Whether you're new to town or a lifelong local, Fort Wood offers a place where neighbors quickly become friends.
Protected under historic district guidelines, both the architecture and natural beauty of Fort Wood are carefully preserved, ensuring that the neighborhood's unique character continues to shine for generations to come. Living here means being part of something truly special. Come see for yourself and make it yours!
