Known as the Cavender House, built as a spacious and elegant family home in 1906, it sits on the corner of Oak and Central Avenue in the historic FORTWOOD neighborhood. The home's location makes it convenient to all that Chattanooga has to offer. It is in close vicinity to three major area hospitals, University of Tennessee, museums, restaurants and downtown attractions. The ample parking space is paved for six cars in its own private courtyard, which is a rarity in a residential neighborhood where residents must park their cars on the street. Listed on the National Gallery of Historic Homes, this unique Victorian Home was
grandfathered for R4 zoning in January of 1981, and is perfect for a family, business, or group of professionals.

Constructed of solid brick, this two-story home has a partially finished basement and a walk-up attic that runs the entire length and breadth of the house. Slate roof features pyramid and gable details, wood shingled dormer and front gable pediment. A one-story wrap around porch with small Ionic columns, oak & pinewood floors, wainscoting, original mouldings, chair rails in the dining room, high ceilings and transoms are just some of the extraordinary features. Seven fireplaces with each mantlepiece a work of art, feature engraved fireplace fittings and are highlights of the home. The same tiger oak seen on the staircase is used on the floor to ceiling massive pocket doors which give privacy to the parlor and the dining room. Beautiful woodwork carvings and intricate etchings throughout the home demonstrate the quality of workmanship. The foyer of the main floor opens to a sitting area with fireplace and grand staircase.
