Complete with a view of Missionary Ridge from the two front decks, this 4 bedroom 3½ bath home (master on main) is designed to simplify your daily routine with open floor plan, custom kitchen, two laundry rooms, main-level garage, bonus room, and unfinished basement. Hardwood floors, granite counters, stainless appliances, custom shelving, designer blinds and more; this home has it all! Check out this home built in 2013 and designed by seasoned home owners to make your life comfortable, functional and enjoyable every minute you spend at home. The open floor plan, from the spacious kitchen with a large, eat-up island to the dining room that can be expanded in every direction to the great room with a cathedral ceiling, is designed to maximize the unique view of Missionary Ridge from the top deck of the (25 X 8.4 feet) double-level front porch. Other functional aspects include tons of well-designed storage options throughout, a spacious laundry room on the main level and a second laundry upstairs. The master suite is on the main level with three additional bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs (one bathroom is "ensuite" while the other opens both to a bedroom and the hall). Downstairs is over 1000 square feet of unfinished basement. Convenience is an understatement with the North Shore and Downtown just a couple of minutes away. Normal Park Museum Magnet Upper and Lower Schools are both walking distance and it is very close to shopping (Publix, Walgreens and Whole Foods are just three examples). Coolidge Park, Walnut Street Bridge and a plethora of outdoor recreational opportunities await you less than five minutes away. The front door faces W Mississippi Avenue with plenty of parking, but you can also enter the back from an alley off of Fairmont Avenue where you can park in the garage on the main level. Custom blinds are installed throughout, all the floors are hardwood except the carpeted upstairs bedrooms and the bathrooms and laundry rooms which have ceramic tile floors. Custom Elfa shelving systems (designed by The Container Store) are in every closet. The great room features a cathedral ceiling, fantastic views and a unique, modern "ribbon flame" fireplace with a glass tile surround and wood mantle. The great room is completely open to the dining room and kitchen creating a continuous living and entertaining space not usually found in North Chattanooga. A powder room with a granite-topped vanity is located between the great room and dining room. Both the kitchen and dining room have crown molding. The kitchen was designed with a gourmet cook in mind boasting tons of cabinet and granite counter space, a stylish glass tile backsplash, under cabinet lighting, stainless appliances with a double-oven, and two stunning pendant lights over the (6.1 X 3.3 feet) eat-up island. A custom-designed, matching desk area is adjacent to the kitchen along with even more cabinets for additional storage. Around the corner is a (12.5 X 6.8 feet) laundry room with custom Elfa shelving and a dedicated electrical and icemaker line for a second refrigerator/freezer. Also near the kitchen are doors to the back patio with a privacy wall and the two-car main-level garage. The master suite is adjacent to the great room with windows highlighting the front view, recessed lights over the bed, crown molding, and a private bath with a double, granite vanity, jetted tub, separate shower featuring ceramic tile, river rock and glass enclosure and a spacious walk-in, custom closet. Upstairs, next to the second laundry, is a "mini" suite with full private bath featuring a subway tile enclosed shower/tub and a granite vanity. The second floor also has two additional bedrooms, a full bath with granite vanity, ceramic tile enclosed shower, and a door to one of the bedrooms as well as the hall. Down the hall is a (17 X 14 feet) bonus room with hardwood floors, an extra-long double closet, and wiring for surround sound. The daylight basement, with a door to the lower front porch, is unfinished and divided into three large rooms, currently providing storage, but with future expansion possibilities for your game room, man-cave, or in-law suite. This home has two central heat and air systems with a gas heat unit on the main level and electric heat pump upstairs - it also boasts two gas hot water heaters.
