Property Description
Perched atop Chattanooga's prestigious Missionary Ridge, 551 North Crest Court presents a rare opportunity to own an extraordinary custom-built estate offering exceptional living space, timeless architectural character, and an impressive collection of recent improvements.
Offered for the first time by its original owner, this private gated residence has been thoughtfully designed for grand-scale entertaining, comfortable everyday living, and multigenerational flexibility.
The seller has invested in several meaningful improvements, including chimney updates, roof updates, retaining wall updates with LIFETIME WARRANTY, landscaping, fresh interior and exterior painting in select areas, and a beautifully remodeled primary bathroom. These updates enhance the home's appeal while preserving the distinctive craftsmanship and architectural details that make this Missionary Ridge estate truly special.
The expansive primary suite offers a private retreat with a stunning spa-inspired bathroom, custom closets, double water closets, and a private patio.
Inside, elegant gathering spaces include a custom library, all-season sunroom, sophisticated entertaining bar with butler's pantry, and multiple living areas ideal for hosting others.
The lower level offers exceptional flexibility with a private entrance, full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms, providing an ideal arrangement for guests, or independent living accommodations.
Conveniently located just minutes from downtown Chattanooga, shopping, dining, hospitals, and area amenities, this remarkable residence combines the privacy of a gated estate with the convenience of city living.
More than a home, this is a place where generations can gather, traditions can begin, and lasting memories can be made.
