Additional bedrooms and a full bath upstairs provide flexible space for guests, a home office, or hobbies, while a dedicated laundry and mudroom area adds everyday convenience. Outdoor living is designed for low-maintenance enjoyment while still offering practical space for gardening and everyday use, including raised garden beds, a producing fig tree, and a spacious concrete patio area ideal for seating, grilling, and entertaining. A storage building and off-street parking add additional functionality. Situated in the heart of St. Elmo at the foot of Lookout Mountain, the home is just minutes from the historic Incline Railway, neighborhood restaurants, parks, and outdoor recreation. Local favorites, including The Hot Chocolatier just around the corner, contribute to the walkable lifestyle that makes this community so desirable.

Built in 2021, the property offers modern systems, efficient design, and low-maintenance living while remaining connected to the character and walkability that define St. Elmo. The outdoor space has been intentionally designed to maximize usability without the upkeep of a large yard. Raised garden beds provide space for seasonal planting, herbs, or vegetables, while the producing fig tree adds both character and function. The concrete patio area offers flexibility for outdoor seating, grilling, or entertaining, and the downspout is already configured to accommodate a rain barrel for those interested in gardening or water conservation.
