1407 Mississippi AVE Chattanooga, TN 37405

Welcome home to 1407 Mississippi Avenue! This beautifully renovated bungalow in the Fairhills neighborhood of Riverview is essentially brand new after having been taken beyond the studs. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a large downstairs den (potential 4th bedroom), this bungalow truly lives large. From a structural standpoint, you will appreciate that this home has been almost completely reframed, and features new insulation, a new architectural shingle roof, and new siding. All of the plumbing has been replaced, from the main line into the home to the sewer line going out, and the same is true for the electrical service as well as all of the wiring and the electric panel. The new composite windows offer high efficiency, and were custom designed to match the grid pattern of the home's original windows. A brand new HVAC unit for the main level, all new ductwork, a mini-split unit serving the downstairs, and an efficient tankless gas water heater round out the new mechanicals on the home. Other features include new drywall, new finish-in-place hardwood floors, period-appropriate craftsman trim, high quality plumbing & light fixtures, and luxury finishes throughout.

Upon arriving, you'll find a welcoming flagstone walkway which leads you to the new front porch. You'll notice the attention to detail, including cedar shake shingles in the gables and matching corbels, which compliment the weather-resistent cement-fiber siding. New round bronze guttering is both a functional and aesthetic accent, and you will love the craftsman-style wood front door. Inside, you enter an open-concept living space with a fireplace boasting a marble tile surround, and low maintenance gas logs. The beam that became the mantle was thoughtfully salvaged from the original home, and the fireplace is flanked on either side by stunning casement windows. From there the space flows to the beautifully remodeled kitchen and dining area, which enjoy an abundance of natural light flooding in through the generous windows, accented by deep craftsman window sills. You will find all that one should expect of modern kitchen comforts and amenities, including a large peninsula separating the kitchen and dining area, perfect for barstools; ample countertop space; custom cabinetry throughout; KitchenAid appliances including dual-fuel electric oven with downdraft gas range; French door refrigerator, cabinet front dishwasher; drawer-style microwave situated below the counters, and so much more. The shelves in the butler's nook were also salvaged from the original home. Once floor joists, these gorgeous shelves are another of many nods to the historical charm and character of the home that the sellers thoughtfully preserved.
Beyond the kitchen awaits the spacious master suite which features two walk-in closets. Please note sellers are offering a closet allowance and/or optional build-out for the larger master closet, such that new owners may outfit the closet with a totally custom layout. The master bathroom features an oversized double sink, custom cabinetry, quartz counters, deep soaking tub, a separate water closet, and a glass-walled walk-in shower with double shower heads. Two additional bedrooms for family or guests are also present on the main level, and the secondary bedrooms each enjoy direct access to a large shared Jack & Jill bathroom. Between the rear bedroom and kitchen, you find a laundry/mud room with it's own exterior door and stairs leading down to backyard. The nearby hallway powder room boasts custom wainscoting, striking floral wallpaper, and a beautiful marble countertop with brushed gold hardware. Downstairs, you'll find a space that functions as a secondary living area/den, spacious home office, or could be modified to become a fourth bedroom. This downstairs space has also been professionally waterproofed and has a transferable warranty.
Unique amongst many older North Chattanooga homes, 1407 Mississippi boasts plenty of storage space throughout the interior, and there is a large (36' x 24'), detached garage featuring new garage doors and motors. The exterior also includes a privacy fence on the alley side of the property, and professional landscaping with sod on all sides of the home and garage.
