Description
Welcome to 4614 St. Elmo Avenue, a 3 bedroom, 3 full bathroom home where history and charm come together in perfect harmony. This beautifully preserved Historic Registered home, over a century old, offers a rare glimpse into the craftsmanship and elegance of the early 1900s, paired with thoughtful modern updates. Set on a tree-lined street in one of Chattanooga's most sought-after historic neighborhoods, this home stands as a testament to timeless design, with meticulous attention to detail. As you approach the home, a Fieldstone walkway leads you to a welcoming front porch recently updated with solid oak flooring. The current owner has poured over $100,000 into the exterior alone, ensuring that every inch of this home retains its historic charm while offering modern conveniences. The front yard has been lovingly excavated and re-planted with lush Bermuda grass, creating a picture-perfect entrance. Step inside, and you're greeted by soaring 10-foot ceilings, original heart pine flooring, and a charming stained glass window that casts colorful light into the foyer. The main level flows seamlessly, with a formal sitting room, a separate living room featuring a gas fireplace, dining room, and a recently renovated kitchen. The kitchen boasts brand-new custom cabinets, honed marble countertops, and stainless steel appliances that were all installed just this week. The mudroom and laundry closet add practical functionality to the historic charm. The primary suite, located on the main floor, offers a peaceful retreat with a walk-in closet and a spa-like bathroom featuring a stunning clawfoot tub. A brand-new secondary bathroom, with its modern design and abundant natural light, sits just off the living room. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, one with a romantic Juliet balcony, and an updated shared bathroom complete with a large walk-in shower, new vanity, and commode. The home's structure is as solid as its aesthetic, with Romex wiring, a newer HVAC system, and gas heat on the main level. The second floor is efficiently climate-controlled with a mini-split unit, while the basement, constructed from historic limestone, offers expansive dry storage and a poured concrete floor. All of the appliances as well as the Ring doorbell and camera system will convey with the sale of the home. Outside, the updates continue with a newly installed composite deck perfect for al fresco dining. An outdoor shower with copper accents provides both hot and cold water, offering a luxurious touch after a day spent in the garden or at the fire pit nestled in the terraced rear yard. Native landscaping and a towering 300-year-old post oak tree create a serene and private setting, while a cedar-and-pine storage shed with a galvanized metal roof adds both charm and practicality. Practical updates like a PVC sewer line connecting to the main, an updated concrete driveway with room for 4+ vehicles, and the potential to add a garage provide convenience for modern living. Other thoughtful updates include a 25-year architectural shingle roof, solid copper gutters and downspouts, and a freshly painted exterior. For added security, a Ring doorbell and camera system convey with the home. This is more than a house, it's a piece of history, lovingly restored and ready for its next chapter. A little about the neighborhood: Historic St. Elmo is an eclectic and vibrant neighborhood nestled at the foot of Lookout Mountain roughly 4 miles from Downtown Chattanooga. This sweet and cozy neighborhood offers convenience and walkability with its proximity to an array of amenities: Virginia Ave bike path, grocery stores, post office, restaurants & shopping, newly upgraded playground, attractions, trails (Lookout Mountain and Hawkins Ridge) and even a waterfall. Local lenders preferred. Schedule your showing today!
