    ICONIC Signal Mountain Estate with Guest Cottage! Built in 1914, this coveted gem sits nestled in the heart of ''Old Towne'', Signal Mountain's first community. Listed in the National Register of Historic places, ''Old Towne'' has been the aspiration of generations of homeowners...including today's families in search of a Norman Rockwell lifestyle. This is your opportunity to add your family's legacy to this storied property. This RARE 1.4± acre, park-like setting hosts a spacious 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath main house, as well as a welcoming Guest Cottage. Overlooking the expansive lawn is the inviting OVERSIZED PORCH of the main house. Stretching the full length of the house, the porch is just one of the many ''hearts'' of this unique home with others including hardwood floors, dozens of oversized windows, 3 stone fireplaces, solid doors, and architecture built to last. The Primary Bedroom Suite is conveniently located ON THE MAIN LEVEL, with 2 additional bedrooms and 1 bathroom upstairs. Extra-large den on the upstairs level could make for a playroom, formal sitting area, or home office. Walk-out attic storage upstairs is the ideal space for holiday decor. The friendly GUEST COTTAGE features two spacious rooms, a kitchenette, full bathroom, laundry, and brick fireplace. It can be maximized as a visitors' suite, an art or music studio, playhouse, home office...limitless options. From two gates on James Boulevard and Tennessee Avenue, enter the meandering, pull-through cobblestone driveway to arrive at a hospitable covered entrance. The lush landscaping and FLAGSTONE PATIO enable limitless options ranging from outdoor dinner parties to an enviable garden, a baseball diamond to soccer field. The serenity of the Old Towne community does not compromise CONVENIENCE. This estate is just minutes from Signal Mountain favorites like Pruett's Grocery, Civil Provisions restaurant, Signal Mountain Golf and Country Club, Community Amphitheater, Library, and Signal's award-winning schools. The property is located at the front of the mountain with downtown Chattanooga a quick 15 minutes away. The OUTDOOR LIFESTYLE is also within minutes, with picturesque Cumberland Trail, Signal Point, and Rainbow Lake within walking distance. This is Signal Mountain lifestyle at its finest! Located on the boulevard named for Signal Mountain's founder Charles E. James, the majestic home's charm enables you to imagine hearing the clanging bells of the old Signal Mountain trolley line, whose rails are still in place. You may also imagine the laughter of the Signal Mountain Girl Scouts who utilized the home as one of their first-ever meeting venues so many decades ago. Enjoy morning or evening walks on the sidewalks of Old Towne, greeting neighbors and friends who become like family. 511 James Blvd is an exceptional address in the heart of this revered community.
