Some places just feel like home the moment you walk through the door. 1617 Truman Avenue is one of those rare finds. Nestled on a quiet street in the heart of East Ridge, this storybook cottage offers more than just a place to live—it offers a place to belong. A place to slow down, exhale, and imagine planting roots for years to come.
Thoughtfully remodeled from top to bottom in 2022, this single-level home blends classic charm with modern comforts that will be maintenance free for years to come. With no carpet in sight, the rich engineered hardwood floors dances across every room, glowing in the natural light that pours into each room. The freshly encapsulated crawlspace also adds peace of mind, letting you focus on what really matters—building a life, not a to-do list.
Inside, you'll find three spacious bedrooms where you can truly spread out—each one ready to be filled with quiet mornings, bedtime stories, or lazy weekend naps. The primary suite is something special, with vaulted ceilings that make the space feel grand and bright, and an en-suite bath with laundry hookups that makes the everyday tasks a breeze.
The kitchen is big and full of heart, with more cabinets than you'll know what to do with and plenty of room for gathering. It's the kind of kitchen where you can picture a pot of soup simmering on the stove, music playing in the background, and your favorite people all around. There are closets tucked here and there throughout the home too—perfect for stashing away keepsakes, board games, or the holiday decorations that always seem to grow.
Step outside and you'll find a spacious back deck, just waiting for summer cookouts and starry night conversations. The fenced-in yard has room for your furry friends to play, the kids to run free, or for you to plant that garden you've always dreamed of. And the big outbuilding out back? It's full of potential—storage, a workshop, or maybe the cozy backyard hideout.
And just beyond your doorstep, East Ridge is thriving. With exciting new restaurants, charming local shops, and the growing energy around the Chattanooga Red Wolves stadium development, this neighborhood is becoming one of the most vibrant corners of the city. It's a place where people are proud to live, where community still means something, and where it's easy to feel at home.
1617 Truman Avenue isn't just a place to liveit's a place to belong. A home where every day routines feel just a little more magical, and where the next beautiful chapter of your life is waiting to unfold. Welcome home.
