About This Home

As of July 2025

Welcome to 1209 Highland Drive in the heart of North Chattanooga. This charming 3-bedroom, 3-full-bath home is located on a quiet street with sidewalks and mature trees. This home has had extensive updates done over the last few years and is ready for new owners. The main floor features 3 spacious bedrooms with 2 full updated bathrooms. In 2022, the primary bathroom was thoughtfully redesigned and completely remodeled with a custom walk-in shower and closet. The kitchen was also renovated with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, a custom island, new cafe appliances, a gas range, pot filler, and custom hood. The kitchen was reconfigured to have an open layout and a lofted ceiling, opening to the newly landscaped fenced-in backyard. You will find beautiful hydrangeas, peonies, and fruit-producing trees such as blueberry bushes and a peach tree that produce a ton of fruit! Off the kitchen, you will also find access to the mudroom/ laundry room and a new set of stairs leading to the finished basement. The basement is currently serving the sellers as a playroom/ workout room, a large office, which would also be a perfect 4th bedroom, a full bathroom, and a storage room. This space is very versatile and could also make a great mother-in-law suite equipped with a utility sink and laundry hookups. There is an additional 515 square feet of unfinished space to store tools, yard equipment, bikes, etc., which is unheard-of storage for a 1925 bungalow!
The entire exterior was renovated in 2019 with all-new Hardie board siding and stonework.
Other features include a large front porch approximately 35 feet by 7.5 feet, a wine refrigerator, plantation shutters, a large fenced backyard, a sprinkler system, and original hardwood floors. ****There is Alley access to the backyard with an asphalt parking pad for up to 4 car with easy access to the backyard and Kitchen Entrance.*** Room to add a garage if desired.
There is also street parking in the front.
