Originally built in 1903, no detail was overlooked in the meticulous updating of this stunning 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home positioned on a corner lot within walking distance of Normal Park Elementary School and close to additional schools, parks, hospitals, the Chattanooga Golf and Country Club, the shopping and restaurants of the North Shore and downtown Chattanooga. This charming home simply exudes curb appeal with its wrap-around covered porch, brick walkways, stone retaining walls and mature landscaping. It also has a coveted detached single garage with EV charging station and an adjoining carport. The interior is even more impressive, as the sellers took great care in the re-design and custom finishes, seamlessly melding the old with the new. You will love the original doors and hardware, window casings, fireplace mantel and hardwood floors, while also appreciating the new open floor plan, custom woodwork and cabinetry, period appropriate lighting, beautiful Carrera marble countertops and more. Your tour of the main level begins with entry to a foyer area with a gas fireplace that leads to the formal dining room to the left, and the open living room and kitchen to the right. The living room has a coffered ceiling and plenty of windows providing wonderful natural light and views of the lush setting. The kitchen will delight the home gourmet with its large center island with soapstone countertop and pendant lighting. The perimeter countertops are marble with marble subway tile backsplash, and high-end stainless appliances include a Dacor fridge, gas cooktop with pot-filler and double wall ovens, as well as GE Monogram under-counter microwave and dishwasher. Under-cabinet lighting and a hidden walk-in pantry add to the appeal. A hallway leads to the mudroom which has access to the rear path to the garage/carport, a handsome office with built-in corner cabinetry and the powder room with basket weave marble tile floor and marble vanity.
