This home is located in the desirable Belvoir area and many of the original characteristics of the home have been carefully maintained.
It features beautifully refinished, original hardwood floors, original doors and vintage glass door knobs. High ceilings and an abundance of windows fill the home with natural light. The newer kitchen blends modern convenience with classic character, offering a stainless sink, stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinets, an original butler's pantry and a built-in pantry. The house plan flows well and the original archway on the interior gives it even more charm.
Additional highlights include the recent painting of the interior walls and trim, some new electrical, brand-new vinyl siding, newer roof, cedar-lined closets, and wiring for high speed EPB fiber. The attic features very high ceilings and offers excellent potential for those wishing to add a primary suite and extra living space. This would give the opportunity for the new buyers to truly make this their forever home. This home sits on a large, level, wooded, corner lot with an abundance of pretty plants and trees.
It is located within ten minutes of downtown Chattanooga and this is a long-established and welcoming neighborhood. The current owners have especially loved how intergenerational the community is. Neighbors range from families who've lived here for decades to new faces out walking dogs or children and enjoying local events. From July 4th parades and Christmas caroling to Easter egg hunts, the sense of connection runs deep. Enjoy access nearby within the neighborhood to soccer fields, basketball goals, a Gaga pit, playgrounds, walking paths and historical markers. Many residents don't want to move and often downsize or buyer larger within the neighborhood. Off street parking spaces at the back of the house.
