Perched atop a beautifully wooded, half-acre lot in the desirable Hilltop/Belvoir neighborhood, this thoughtfully improved home offers a rare combination of privacy, character, and convenience just minutes from downtown Chattanooga. Tucked into an elevated setting with a secluded feel and seasonal winter views, the property lives like an urban oasis... peaceful and tucked away, yet remarkably close to shopping, entertainment, dining, groceries, and daily amenities.

Inside, the home blends timeless warmth with meaningful updates and flexible living spaces. Refinished hardwood floors, solid wood doors, updated windows, and carefully selected improvements throughout create an atmosphere that feels both refined and comfortable. Natural light filters into inviting living areas, while the surrounding trees provide a sense of calm and separation that is increasingly hard to find this close to the city.

The spacious 2,551 sq ft layout offers 3 bedrooms, two and a half baths, an attached double garage that accommodates modern vehicles, and an especially appealing primary suite arrangement. The primary suite functions as a true private retreat, consisting of a large bedroom, large bath, private den, laundry room, and his-and-her walk-in closets. The primary bath is a standout feature offering tile floors, a bidet, a spa bubble tub with a tile surround, and a thoughtful blend of comfort and function.

The kitchen has been updated with quality finishes and appliances, including a gas range with convection, French door refrigerator, custom solid wood countertops, and a new Whirlpool dishwasher in 2025. Just off the kitchen, the back deck creates an ideal setting for entertaining or relaxed outdoor living. The home's sunroom adds another layer of versatility and charm, consisting of two distinct spaces. One side features built-ins surrounding the windows and offers a warm, inviting place to relax while enjoying the wooded backdrop in every season. The other includes a separate flex room behind a sliding barn door... ideal for an office, workout room, art or craft studio, or whatever best suits your lifestyle, with the added benefit of a utility closet.

This property has benefited from extensive improvements that reflect a high level of care, stewardship, and investment. Recent 2025 improvements include a new roof, new rear deck decking, new sunroom windows, freshly glazed and painted windows throughout, and meaningful office upgrades including hardwired internet, added 15-amp service, and a dedicated extra 20-amp line for future flexibility. Earlier enhancements include blown attic insulation in 2023, an on-demand gas water heater in 2023 with dedicated 20-amp service, a Trane 2-ton heat pump HVAC installed in 2021, and new living room, office, and sunroom windows in 2021. The home's facade was also replaced in 2021, and a front entry gable was added to enhance both curb appeal and architectural presence.

Additional important infrastructure upgrades include replacement windows in the primary suite in 2012, a new sewer line in 2012, replaced electrical panels, and added lightning strike protectors on both panels. Extensive tree work has also been completed around the property to remove problem trees and help minimize potential storm damage. Oversized 6-inch gutters add further practicality, and a 7' x 7.5' shed provides extra storage.

Rarely does a home offer this level of privacy, flexibility, and thoughtful improvement in such a convenient central location. With its elevated hilltop setting, wooded surroundings, quality upgrades, and distinct sense of retreat, this is a property that feels both special and enduring.
