This single-level stone home, dating back to 1939, boasts captivating 180-degree vistas of the valley and ridgeline from nearly every room. Situated just 30 minutes from downtown Chattanooga and moments away from Cloudland Canyon State Park, Canyon Grill, Lookout Mountain Flight Park and and McLemore Golf and Country Club, convenience meets tranquility in this idyllic location. Enter via the new front door to the charming foyer area. Built in 1939 with a period appropriate addition of sunny living space with sliding glass doors and other updates in 1989, this home has been lovingly cared for. Step inside to discover original stonework floors and walls, creating an ambiance of timeless elegance. The dual-sided fireplace in the living room exudes warmth and character, while the kitchen showcases a charming tongue-and-groove ceiling. The fireplace was rebuilt in 2007 with the addition of a golden flue. A glassed-in family room invites you to unwind while soaking in the breathtaking scenery. Every room in the house offers views of either the valley or the surrounding property, including the Jack-and-Jill bath, built in 2022, where even the shower provides a scenic backdrop. Custom built-in cabinetry throughout ensures ample storage, complemented by walk-in closets in two of the three bedrooms. The library offers a sunlit space to work or enjoy a cozy afternoon curled up with a book. Solid core interior doors updated in 2008. An attached garage provides convenient parking and workspace. The siding and field lines were redone in 2007. Spread across 5.44 acres, the property includes a parcel across the street with versatile building options ideal for a workshop or storage. The outdoor living space is a masterpiece unto itself, featuring a magnificent two-story deck added in 2019 perched over the cliff band, offering nearly 1250 feet of brow line to savor.
