Mountain memories made here. Just 20 minutes to Downtown Chattanooga, this surprisingly-private Signal Mountain estate is nestled on 4.8+/- acres within the established Summertown community. Reminiscent of Cape Cod or Hilton Head compounds, this one-of-a-kind property consists of the main 5-bedroom residence, attached apartment, 3 car garage, additional detached garage and office space, and grounds made for gathering with a swimming pool, hot tub, firepit and expansive porches. Relish the room for all of your family and friends with multiple areas both inside and out that will make lasting memories. As guests enter, a rocking chair front porch sets the tone for the remarkably-cozy main home. Friends and family naturally make their way to the Heart of the Home––the impressive, newly-renovated kitchen.
