Conveniently located on historic Missionary Ridge just minutes from schools, hospitals, shopping, restaurants and downtown Chattanooga, this 5 bedroom, 4 full bath home is positioned on a .37 +/- acre lot with scenic views in the winter and lush privacy in the summer. Built in 1930, the traditional yet versatile home boasts a wonderful blend of old and new with beautiful hardwoods and tile, crown and dental moldings, arched and enlarged doorways, recessed and decorative lighting, updated kitchen and baths, a finished daylight basement, multiple outdoor living spaces, a fenced front yard, additional play space in the back yard, and a driveway to the covered and uncovered parking areas. The home exudes curb appeal with its English cottage style and front tiled patio area. Entry is via the arched solid wood door to a foyer area with coat closets on either side and secondary arched doorway to the living room. The living room has a gas fireplace and opens to the formal dining room which in turn opens to a side foyer that makes a wonderful reading nook or extra sitting area. The kitchen has beautiful granite counters and backsplash, a center island with a level dining bar, custom cabinetry with soft-close drawers, a gas cooktop, convection oven, a refreshment center with sink and beverage fridge, a pocket door to a combination butler's pantry/laundry, and it is open to a spacious breakfast area with access to the rear deck which could also be used as a keeping room if preferred. A guest bedroom and a full hall bath round out the main level. The primary bedroom is on the second level and is large enough to accommodate a sitting area. It also has a small walk-in closet, and a private bath with a granite vanity, a water closet, a separate shower with tile and glass surround and an additional closet with shelving.
