Own a historically significant architectural masterpiece at 212 S Crest Road, a 3,830 sq.ft. 2-story brick home located in the prestigious Missionary Ridge Historic District of Chattanooga. Designed in 1922 by Reuben Harrison Hunt, one of Chattanooga's most prominent architects from the 1880s to the 1930s, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom residence was custom-built for his only child, Mrs. Louise Hunt Street, who resided here for forty years. Listed as a contributing property on the National Register of Historic Places (NRIS Reference Number: 95001257), this home offers unmatched historical pedigree, remarkably featuring the 19th Illinois Infantry marker directly on site.
Beyond its rich history, the home features solid, fireproof construction with thick concrete walls covered by tile and brick. The home now boasts a brand-new roof and beautifully refinished floors laid over the solid concrete base. A recent bathroom renovation process highlighted these robust concrete floors, leaving the perfect canvas for your own aesthetic updates while giving you the peace of mind of an exceptionally built structure.
Perched perfectly on the ridge, this property boasts breathtaking sunrise and sunset views, a highly desirable and rare dual-facing advantage. Additionally, the property features an abundance of parking space, offering an exceptional and hard-to-find convenience in this historic neighborhood.
Perfectly positioned for both lifestyle and convenience, this home is just down the road from neighborhood favorites like Sleepyhead Coffee and Giardino. You are less than 10 minutes from the Sculpture Garden at Montague Park, under 5 minutes to I-24, and less than 15 minutes to both Downtown Chattanooga and the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport. *Selling home AS IS.
