5505 Alabama Ave, Chattanooga, TN 37409

Built in 2021 and owned by one family, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home delivers the peace of mind of newer construction in the heart of historic St. Elmo. The open-concept main level features dark engineered hardwood floors, a gray shaker kitchen with granite countertops, center island, and a professional-grade range hood that anchors the space. The primary suite is on the main level with a double vanity, walk-in shower, and direct access to the rear patio, bordered by a newly installed cedar privacy fence. Upstairs, a generous landing at the top of the stairs offers the perfect dedicated space for a home office. Move-in ready. Just two blocks to the Virginia Avenue Greenway trailhead on 55th Street -- 0.7 miles to Guild-Hardy Trail, 1.4 miles to Virginia Avenue Park -- walk or bike straight into some of St. Elmo's best outdoor access. The Tennessee Riverwalk's 13-mile paved greenway also connects St. Elmo directly to downtown Chattanooga, the new Erlanger Park baseball stadium for the Chattanooga Lookouts, and the broader Riverpark corridor. A short stroll puts you at BlueCross Healthy Place at St. Elmo, Mr. T's Pizza & Ice Cream, Little Coyote, and The Hot Chocolatier, with the Incline Railway and St. Elmo's walkable restaurant corridor just beyond. An assumable VA loan at 3.125% is also available for a qualifying, VA-eligible buyer -- contact the listing agent for a personalized comparison.
