Property Description

You’re in luck! Rare find with this updated 1927 Craftsman style Northshore beauty located on one of Chattanooga’s best streets, Forest Avenue! Demand is always high for well-taken care of properties on this convenient street that ends right into the famous Walnut Street Pedestrian Bridge and Chattanooga’s Northshore Frazier Ave offering countless shops and restaurants. The home is also zoned for award-winning Normal Park Schools, just a few blocks from the Publix shopping center and 1 block away from one of the best-kept secrets in the area, Frances B Wyatt Park. This park offers a pickleball court, baseball diamond, playground, picnic table & grills & even an indoor community center.

The charm of the home starts right away with the token Craftsman style deep covered front porch that is still just as perfect for relaxing and watching the neighborhood go by as it was in the 1920s. We all know how hectic life can be currently & time just seems to slow down a bit in a home like this, allowing us to take notice of what is truly important. Stepping into the front door, you will be genuinely blown away by the beauty of the original Heart Pine floors that have recently been professionally refinished. The whole house plantation shutters just exacerbate the charm and perfection of this home. The entry is flanked by a quaint living area with built-ins and a formal dining room, both with convenient working gas fireplaces that can quickly heat the entire first level. There is a good-sized bedroom on the main level with a walk-in closet and ensuite bath. The kitchen is bright with loads of natural light pouring in from the sunrise-facing windows and looks out over the large deck and fenced backyard. The kitchen offers the perfect setting for any would-be chef with its 5-burner gas range w/ exterior ventilation, granite counters, loads of cabinets, floating shelves & a stainless steel island with barstool space.
