Property Description

Beautiful five-bedroom historic home on one of the best blocks in Saint Elmo! Recognized as a St. Elmo Landmark on the National Register of Historic Places, this American Foursquare is thought to be the oldest home in St. Elmo. It was built by Colonel A.M. Johnson and is the house in which the idea for the Saint Elmo neighborhood was conceived. Thankful Episcopalian Church, down the block, is named for Colonel Johnson's wife, Thankful. The home offers almost 3,000 square feet of living space on a fenced, level lot that backs up to the wooded slopes of Lookout Mountain, giving you privacy and a dramatic natural backdrop. (Neighborhood aficionados know that the Lookout side of Alabama Avenue is the ''place to be'' in Saint Elmo). Inside, original millwork, tall ceilings, and generously sized rooms highlight late nineteenth-century craftsmanship, while modern upgrades include lightning-fast EPB fiber-optic internet and an EV charging station. The primary suite and half-bath are on the main level, with four additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms upstairs. A wide front porch overlooks the tree-lined avenue, and the rear yard provides space for gardens, play, or outdoor dining beneath the mountain canopy. From the doorstep you can walk to live music at The Woodshop several nights a week, enjoy meals at 1885 Grill or Little Coyote, and shop at Publix a mile away. The nearby Riverwalk connects St. Elmo to more than 23 miles of paved, lighted paths along the Tennessee River and South Chickamauga Greenway, linking parks, trailheads, and downtown Chattanooga attractions. History, walkability, and convenience meet in this rare chance to own a cornerstone of one of Chattanooga's most storied neighborhoods. (Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Buyer should verify any information of concern, including but not limited to schools and square footage).
