About 1516 Union Ave
This beautifully reimagined 4-bedroom, 3-bath home sits on a corner lot on one of the best streets in Highland Park. Originally built in 1920, it was completely gutted and rebuilt in 2022. The renovation included all new framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, fixtures and foundation. With 12 foot ceilings and open concept, it offers the charm of a historic Chattanooga home with the peace of mind of new construction. The home features a fully fenced front yard, a 6-foot privacy fence in the back, and a large off-street parking area that fits three cars. There's also plenty of street parking available for guests. Located directly across from Tatum Park and less than five blocks from the BlueCross Healthy Place at Highland Park, this home offers the best of urban living. It's less than two miles from the Chattanooga Choo Choo and all the restaurants, coffee shops, and nightlife on Main Street. The Chattanooga Aquarium and riverfront are less than three miles away. This is one of the fastest growing areas in the city, and homes with this level of complete renovation are rare. If you're looking for a move-in-ready home close to everything Chattanooga has to offer, this is it.
