Opportunity meets location in the heart of East Brainerd! Sitting on approximately an acre, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers far more than meets the eye. The garage includes a nearly completed apartment-style space with a full bathroom, plumbing, electrical, heat, and cooling already in place--just waiting for your finishing touches. Imagine transforming the space into a guest suite, second living area, office, creative studio, or future income-producing space. The possibilities are yours to explore! Outside, the generous lot gives you plenty of room for outdoor living, gardening, pets, entertaining, or simply enjoying your own slice of space in a convenient Chattanooga location. With shopping, restaurants, and everyday amenities close by, you get the best of both worlds: a property with room to make it your own and a location that keeps you close to it all. This is the kind of property where you can see the potential from day one and make it uniquely yours.
