About This Home
This lovely 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is situated in the heart of Fort Oglethorpe, in an established neighborhood. The location is hard to beat - approximately 1.5 miles from Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park, close to shopping and restaurants along Battlefield Parkway, approximately 15 minutes to I-75, and within walking distance to Gilbert Stephenson Park, which offers a walking track, playground and community pool. The interior features solid hardwood flooring in the living room and two of the bedrooms, while the kitchen and dining area have been freshly painted, creating a bright and welcoming space. The sellers have made several updates, including new exterior siding in 2024, new front windows in 2023, and brand-new laminate flooring in the very spacious, private bedroom in 2026. The private bath features a stand up shower and the laundry closet is conveniently located in the private bath. This one-story home sits on a nice level lot and includes a two-car carport. A creek runs along the back of the property, and flood insurance is required. This is a great opportunity for anyone looking to be near town, schools, parks, shopping and dining, while still enjoying a peaceful neighborhood setting.
