3224 S Crest Place Chattanooga, TN 37404

Admirers of Craftsman architecture and authentic Craftsman era design – take note of this rare opportunity at 3224 South Crest Place in historic Missionary Ridge. Previous owners of this 1912 Craftsman home spent 25 years meticulously researching, collecting and acquiring all the period correct lighting and architectural details used in the loving restoration of this extraordinary home. With a goal of returning this brick and stucco craftsman beauty to its original grandeur aesthetically,'' the previous owners spent years on their labor of love and now the next owner/caretakers of the 'period perfect' home will benefit from their tireless vision. Many major systems were replaced or upgraded to make this handsome home "modern". On almost an acre of land, the home has stunning expansive rear views of the valley and mountains below and a great outdoor living area including a large stamped concrete patio overlooking the gently sloping back yard with a pergola and swing, firepit, koi pond, garden and garden shed. The historic architectural details are expansive beginning with the original front door with leaded glass and solid brass door lock. The main floor has all original plaster walls and original heart pine floors. All lighting, not original to home, has been meticulously replaced with period correct craftsman or art nouveau era lighting. A stellar example of craftsman era architecture, the dark wood columns, ceiling detail, baseboards and signature built-ins are found throughout the home. The main level has a large kitchen, dining room with craftsman built-in and a charming original powder room with period correct wall paper and lighting. Upstairs two bedrooms were combined to create a large master suite with a fireplace. A spa like updated master bath was added with clean white tile, a lovely slipper tub and large glass shower. There is also a second surprisingly large bedroom on the second level.
