Cozy two bedroom, 1 bathroom, 1950's charmer with front porch views of Lookout Mountain, nestled in the heart of historic Saint Elmo. Upon entering the front door, the main living, dining, and kitchen rooms flow together seamlessly as a great use of space. Excellent location, off the main drag of Saint Elmo Avenue, ample light with the charm of historic windows, and hardwood floors in the main living areas, make this living space charming and ideal for living and entertaining. The bedrooms and shared guest bathroom on the opposite side, make the home an ideal living space for homeowners at all stages of life, whether your first home purchase or downsizing to age in place. Recent updates include: New HVAC & ductwork, new interior paint, newer roof and newer carpet in the bedrooms (approximately 3 years old), exterior paint (4 years old), vapor barrier and dehumidifier (6 years old). There is off street parking in the generous sized back yard and the front yard is fully fenced in for the next homeowner's furbabies. The hip neighborhood of Saint Elmo has many amenities to offer and is known for its hiking and mountain biking trails. The local watering hole, The Woodshop, is located only blocks away and within walking distance for most. The City of Chattanooga has smartly extended the paved pedestrian and cyclist Virginia Avenue Greenway to connect with the Riverwalk, making it possible to bike, walk, run, skate, scoot, zip or pogo all the way downtown and beyond while significantly limiting the amount of interaction with vehicles. Further entertainment and enjoyment with the wide array of options extends to coffee at Goodman's Coffee Roasters, pizza at the beloved Mr. T's, ice cream at Clumpies, a bottle of fine wine from Scenic City Wine and enjoy a delicious meals at Little Coyote and 1885 - both of which arguably have two of the best outside dining patios in all of Chattanooga. The next owner of 1613 W 51st could make some updates to this house to reflect their own tastes or simply enjoy the house as move in ready. Schedule your private appointment today and call for more information! *Note the windows are original and historic. As with all of our historic windows in Saint Elmo, authorization from the Historic Zoning Commission would have to be granted for replacement. Information is deemed reliable and Buyer to verify all information that is important to them without exceptions.
