Stunning TN River Gorge and sunset views from every room of this custom built home perfectly situated on 5.1 acres on the western slope of Elder Mountain. With 740 feet of view frontage, the spectacular setting provides serenity, privacy, and real peacefulness, while being only 15 minutes from downtown Chattanooga. The 4BR/4.5 BA home is thoughtfully planned out and gracious in every detail. The floor plan with master on the main level could work equally well for persons desiring one level living or for a family. Private drive leads you to the handsome home of brick and specially milled cedar siding. The spacious entrance hall and public rooms feature gleaming 12 inch heart pine floors, high ceilings, and classic moldings. in the living room, dramatic full length wall of windows give 180 degree panoramic vistas of the Little Grand Canyon of the TN River and Prentice Cooper State Forest. Wood burning fireplace with slate surround and handsome built-in bookcases accentuate the space. Cook's kitchen with custom cabinetry, Sub-Zero refrigerator, double ovens, Thermador cooktop, and Bosch dishwasher is open to the lovely fireside dining room. A cozy den with office attached adds more casual living space. Each of these rooms opens to the large covered porch and open deck with pergola which span the rear of the home. There could be no better place to entertain, enjoy the change of seasons and drink in the gorgeous setting. The main level 2 car garage affords easy access. Upstairs there are 3 additional bedrooms, each with private bath and generous closet. There is also a huge walk-in attic, great storage/expansion area if desired. The home was masterfully crafted by Bencor and has been meticulously maintained by the owner. This truly is a rare opportunity to own one of the most magnificent pieces of property in our area, and a home you'll never want to leave!
