Description

Welcome 1020 E 10th Street. This beautifully preserved two-story home in the heart of Chattanooga's vibrant and historic ML King neighborhood. Built in 1928, this residence showcases timeless craftsmanship and period charm, featuring original hardwood floors throughout, intricate millwork, and architectural details rarely found today. From the moment you arrive, the home's curb appeal and expansive covered front porch invite you in. Step through the original front door into a soaring foyer with a grand staircase and ornate railing—a true centerpiece of the home. A set of pocket doors opens to the spacious living room, highlighted by a picture window and original tiled fireplace mantel. The formal dining room features a wall of built-in cabinetry and shelving—perfect for storing linens, displaying cherished dishes, and entertaining in vintage style. The galley kitchen blends the old with the new, offering live-edge countertops, stainless-steel gas range, and modern fixtures, all while maintaining historic charm. From the kitchen, enjoy views of Lookout Mountain and access to a screened porch, ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. A hidden bookcase door leads to a versatile room—perfect as a home office, breakfast nook, or keeping room—with access to a full bath and laundry area, plus a secondary staircase to the upper level. Upstairs, the primary suite is a retreat of warmth and light, with gleaming hardwood floors, a cozy sitting area, and ample closet space. Two additional bedrooms offer unique features—one with a painted floor and private corner shower and sink, and another with mountain views. The upstairs bathroom features the original clawfoot tub, a large linen closet, and classic tile.
