Property Description

In the heart of downtown Chattanooga, 1601 E 4th Street offers a spacious 5-bedroom, 2-bath home that combines historic charm, modern updates, and exceptional flexibility. Originally built as a duplex, this charming property is separately metered and zoned/configured to function as a true duplex, a short-term rental, or a single complete residence—and with just a few small changes, it could easily be converted back into two fully independent units. Currently, the layout is ideal for a mother-in-law suite or short-term rental opportunity, making it a perfect fit for homeowners seeking versatility or investors pursuing strong income potential. Located just minutes from the Riverfront, MLK District, and Southside, it's within walking distance of the city's best dining, shopping, and entertainment. Showcasing original brick, classic trim, and a cozy fireplace, the home retains its timeless character while delivering modern comfort through thoughtful updates. Two spacious units anchor the residence, and there's a rare opportunity to expand upward with more than 800 square feet of additional living space above the existing structure—perfect for a luxury owner's suite, rooftop retreat, or expanded income potential. Recent improvements include all-new plumbing, updated electrical panels, a new roof, new windows, and three brand-new bathrooms. With its generous layout, natural light, and versatile configuration, this newly refurbished, move-in-ready property offers both timeless appeal and turnkey convenience. Whether you're looking to live, invest, or generate rental income, 1601 E 4th Street delivers unmatched potential in one of Chattanooga's most vibrant and accessible locations.
