WALK TO ERLANGER or UTC from your new home in Fort Wood, one of Chattanooga's finest historical neighborhoods. This is a family friendly community with lots of opportunities for socializing at holiday and swim parties and monthly supper clubs. Margaret Adelaide Everett Severance's artistic flair and traveling career brought many influences seen throughout the house. Upon entering you will notice the original timeless judges paneling carried through to the island in the kitchen. The open concept main living area is centered around the stone fireplace which is complemented by two original frescoes, handpainted by Mrs. Severance and lovingly recently restored. One of the paintings is featured to this day in the National Gallery, London. The kitchen has been fully remodeled with access to back deck. The first floor also features a bedroom and an office that share a bathroom. Notice the original, beveled glasswork in the office along with access to the front patio. The second floor is the perfect master suite. The bathroom features a water closet, double shower, free standing tub, and a custom vanity. The bedroom, the location of the third Severance mural, has a unique flow through french doors into a sitting room. There is plenty of original hardwood under the carpet. The walk-in closet and the laundry room round out the master suite. The third floor has two bedrooms with views all around and a shared full bathroom. The owners have tried to use pieces found in the basement in their remodeling of the home. There are two ways into the basement, through the garage or through the tunnel. The stone foundation makes up the basement walls. Unfinished, this basement has wine cellar written all over it. This property features a double lot perfect for outdoor activities, possible off-street parking, and gardening/landscaping. Come see this amazing, historical landmark.
