Welcome to the mountains! This is a lovely, all on one level, Boston Branch neighborhood home with three bedrooms two full baths and a double bay garage. It is located close to miles of fantastic hiking trails and nearby rock climbing areas. A central great room capped by a cathedral ceiling is filled with natural light, and provides beautiful views of the surrounding woods as the seasons change. In spring and fall you can leave the front door and the back door leading to the back deck open to create a delightful and invigorating through-the-house breeze. Enjoy the chirping birds and chattering squirrels as you sit outside on the front porch or back deck to enjoy the ambiance of this very unique and private mountain location. A fireplace provides warmth and charm for those chilly winter days when you want to curl up on a couch with a book and a glass of wine for some quiet time, or perhaps gather family around for an evening of festivities. If you want to feel like you are on vacation all the time, then this is the lifestyle for you. Boston Branch is a 150 acre lushly wooded and gated subdivision surrounded by the pristine and sublimely beautiful North Chickamauga Creek Gorge State Natural Area. In the center of the neighborhood is a 20 acre lake, stocked with catfish and bass, which is perfect for a variety of warm weather water sports. Signal Mountain, located on the outskirts of Chattanooga, serves as home to approximately 7,500 residents. You are only a ten or so minute drive from the town center where you will find a wide variety of small businesses, including dentists and doctors, a large grocery, along with several nice restaurants and shops. Mountaintop residents have a strong sense of community, and are proud of their outstanding school system with its two highly regarded elementary schools and an award winning Middle/High School. Many families move to Signal in order to enroll their children in the Signal Mountain school system as a high quality alternative to expensive private schools like Baylor, McCallie and GPS. The town of Signal Mountain has two public pools, several playgrounds, a golf and country club, tennis courts, lots of public green spaces, and baseball and soccer leagues galore. About the only it lacks is its own movie theater. Stay tuned! Downtown Chattanooga, where many residents work, is an easy 20+ minute commute. Signal Mountain is a special place where you can relax, kick back and enjoy your slice of the American Dream. Desirable and affordable homes on Signal Mountain sell fast, so request your private showing and make this fabulous Boston Branch home yours today!
