1407 Mississippi Avenue

Discover your dream home at 1407 Mississippi Avenue in the coveted Fairhills neighborhood of Riverview. This stunningly renovated bungalow has been thoughtfully reimagined from the ground up, offering a modern living experience with classic charm AND an oversized 2-car detached garage that's 882 SF. Boasting 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a spacious downstairs den that could easily function as a 4th bedroom, this home provides more space than meets the eye.
Every detail of this home has been meticulously updated. The structure has undergone extensive reframing, fresh insulation, a brand-new architectural shingle roof, and pristine siding. The plumbing has been completely replaced, from the main line to the sewer line, and the electrical system has been fully updated, including new wiring, service, and electric panel. High-efficiency composite windows have been installed, thoughtfully preserving the original grid pattern. Modern mechanical updates include a new HVAC unit for the main level, all-new ductwork, a mini-split unit for the downstairs area, and a tankless gas water heater for added efficiency.
Inside, you'll find a perfect blend of modern amenities and period-appropriate details. The fresh drywall, newly finished hardwood floors, and craftsman-style trim are complemented by luxurious fixtures and finishes throughout. The inviting flagstone walkway leads you to the newly designed front porch, where cedar shake shingles, matching corbels, and weather-resistant cement-fiber siding showcase the home's attention to detail. The craftsman-style wood front door sets the tone for the elegance within. Step inside to an open-concept living area, where natural light floods the space. A marble-tiled fireplace with gas logs and a reclaimed beam mantle, flanked by casement windows, creates a cozy yet sophisticated ambiance. The living area flows seamlessly into the remodeled kitchen and dining space, featuring a large peninsula, custom cabinetry, and KitchenAid appliances. A butler's nook with shelves salvaged from the original home adds a touch of history and charm.
The master suite is a private retreat with two walk-in closets and a spa-like master bathroom, complete with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a deep soaking tub, a separate water closet, and a glass-walled walk-in shower with double shower heads. Two additional bedrooms share a generously sized Jack & Jill bathroom. A convenient laundry/mudroom with an exterior door and a powder room with custom wainscoting round out the main level.
Downstairs, a versatile space offers endless possibilities as a secondary living area, den, or fourth bedroom, and it's been professionally waterproofed for peace of mind. Unlike many older homes in North Chattanooga, 1407 Mississippi Avenue provides ample interior storage.
The property also includes a detached 36' x 24.5' garage (882 SF) with new doors and motors, offering additional storage and convenience. The alley side is fenced for privacy, and the lush landscaping with professional sod enhances the curb appeal of both the home and the garage.
Situated in the highly desirable Riverview neighborhood, known for its family-friendly atmosphere and walkability, this home is zoned for the award-winning Normal Park schools and is close to GPS and the Bright School. Enjoy being just a short walk from Riverview shops, some of Chattanooga's finest dining, and the Chattanooga Golf and Country Club. Riverview Park and the scenic Tennessee River are also nearby.
