About This Home

As of May 2024

This is a rare opportunity to live downtown in a historic neighborhood and building. Welcome to the Samuel Read House built in 1904, located on Vine Street in the heart of the lovely Fort Wood District. ''Between 1900 and 1910, Fort Wood became one of the most exclusive residential sections in Chattanooga. The installation of one of Chattanooga's first electric streetcar lines on Oak Street in 1889 encouraged prominent citizens to take up residence in the newly developed area. Many of Chattanooga's leading citizens built their homes in Fort Wood, including Samuel Read, owner of the Read House, an important Chattanooga hotel. Through architecture, these influential politicians, businessmen, real estate developers, doctors and lawyers left their mark on Fort Wood during its heyday from t rn-of-the-century through the 1940s. This building later housed the Senter School, one of Chattanooga's oldest private schools.'' (Information pulled from the Fort Wood National Historic District's Website). The building has a coded entry at the front door for ease and convenience and the unit is located on the main floor. The lobby consists of wood paneling and an incredibly beautiful curved staircase. Dark wood paneling and trim and the original parquet wood floors greet you in the foyer of the condo which spills into the main living area with 14 foot ceilings. The home boasts modern amenities with renovated bathrooms and a sleek, modern kitchen with stainless appliances (note: the refrigerator to remain with the property), but still has the charm of yesteryear. Walk out of the kitchen door to a shared patio with a fire pit, space for grilling, table and lounge chairs for relaxing. The two spacious bedrooms are located on the lower level with two full bathrooms and new acacia engineered hardwood floors. Also located on the lower level, a laundry closet (note: the washer and dryer remain with the property) with shelving and a large storage unit. The master suite has a brand new custom-built closet and the master bath has a travertine vanity with a walk-in shower, rainfall shower head and body jets. Off-street parking in an adjacent parking lot. Please do not miss this opportunity - call for more information and schedule your showing today.
