Description

Welcome to 850 Oak Street, a beautifully restored 1900 historic home in Chattanooga's renowned Fort Wood Historic District, one of the city's most architecturally significant and sought after neighborhoods. Known for its tree lined streets, preserved historic homes, and walkable location near downtown Chattanooga, Fort Wood offers a rare combination of heritage, charm, and convenience. This extraordinary residence has been thoughtfully restored to honor its original craftsmanship while incorporating modern comforts, creating a one of a kind historic property for today's lifestyle. The impressive columned front porch with original mosaic tile flooring immediately captures the spirit of the home and offers the perfect place to relax and enjoy the neighborhood's peaceful setting. Newly designed landscaping features classic Southern plantings that will mature beautifully over time, while the generous lot provides space for a future garage with rooftop terrace, adding additional outdoor living potential. Inside, historic architectural details are preserved throughout, including restored wavy glass windows, soaring ceilings, custom dentil molding, ornate baseboards, and multiple fireplaces. Original pocket doors discovered during the renovation now elegantly separate the parlor, study, and living room, creating flexible spaces ideal for entertaining or working from home. The moody home office or study with exposed brick offers a cozy retreat, while the living room features a striking custom marble fireplace surround. Large windows fill the formal dining room with natural light. The designer kitchen blends historic character with modern luxury and features a farmhouse sink, marbled granite countertops and backsplash, Monogram appliances, herringbone wood flooring, beadboard accents, and custom cabinetry. A second staircase connects the kitchen to the upper level and the private lower suite.

Supplements: Upstairs, three beautifully designed bedrooms feature generous closets and timeless details. The primary suite offers a tranquil retreat with tall windows, a luxurious ensuite bath featuring a clawfoot tub, patterned tile floors, tiled shower, and designer finishes. A private lower level suite with separate entrance includes a living area with bar, bedroom, and full bath, ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or a private office. Modern upgrades include wired sound and a hot water recirculation system for added comfort and convenience. Located just minutes from downtown Chattanooga, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, Erlanger Medical Center, restaurants, arts, and cultural attractions, this exceptional home offers the perfect blend of historic architecture, modern updates, and downtown lifestyle living.
