About This Home
Classic Style Meets Modern Living in Fortwood
Discover timeless charm and modern convenience in this recently restored 1920 bungalow, situated in Chattanooga's sought-after Fortwood Historic District. Major updates completed in 2020, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath home blends its original craftsmanship with sleek, urban finishes. A rare combination of private parking and central location: just a short walk to UTC, Erlanger, and the Riverwalk and just minutes from downtown, the Northshore, and Southside.
Step inside to original hardwood floors, wood trim and casings, glass doorknobs, and a brick fireplace. The kitchen showcases modern cabinetry, exposed brick, and stainless steel appliances. The primary suite features a tiled walk-in shower; the second bath has a preserved antique clawfoot tub.
A large bonus room offers flexible space for work, hobbies, or entertaining.
The home also includes a ~500 sq ft unfinished basement and pull-down attic access for ample storage.
Where history meets modern living — this Fortwood bungalow blends both worlds.
