Description

What's it like living on Suck Creek Mountain near Chattanooga, Tennessee? It's quiet, private, surrounded by protected land, and feels like a true escape, yet you are still only about 20 minutes from the heart of downtown Chattanooga and everything the city has to offer. That balance of seclusion and convenience is exactly what makes 265 Big Fork Rd so special.
Welcome to 265 Big Fork Rd, a fully renovated home perched atop Suck Creek Mountain and surrounded by the natural beauty of Prentice Cooper State Park. From the moment you begin the drive home, winding through scenic forest roads and lush canopy, there is a clear sense of separation from the noise of everyday life. It is a setting that immediately shifts your pace and creates a feeling of arrival before you even get to the property.
Set on approximately 0.85 acres of flat, usable land and surrounded by mature trees, the property offers a rare level of privacy and outdoor space in the Chattanooga market. The home also features large front and rear porches that significantly expand your outdoor living space, providing the perfect setting to enjoy morning coffee, unwind in the evenings, or take in the peaceful wooded surroundings in every season. Whether you envision outdoor gatherings, gardening, play space, or simply quiet mornings in nature, the setting supports a wide range of lifestyles. The word best used to describe this property is peaceful.

Inside, the home has been fully renovated to provide a modern, move-in ready experience while still feeling warm and inviting. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with stainless steel appliances, butcher block countertops, and a farmhouse sink that overlooks the backyard, creating a functional and inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. The layout is designed for both flexibility and comfort, featuring a spacious primary suite that serves as a true retreat, complete with an oversized walk-in tile shower, double vanity, and a large walk-in closet. An additional bedroom on the main level offers ideal space for guests, family, or a home office, while upstairs, oversized bedrooms provide exceptional room and comfort, making the home well suited for families or those needing extra space.
In addition to the finished living areas, there is approximately 500 square feet of unfinished storage space above the garage, providing valuable flexibility for storage, a workshop, or potential future expansion. This added space enhances both the practicality and long-term potential of the home.
Despite its private mountain setting, the location remains highly connected. In about 20 minutes you can be enjoying downtown Chattanooga's dining, shopping, and entertainment, along with riverfront destinations like Coolidge Park and the Walnut Street Bridge, or nearby outdoor escapes such as Stringers Ridge Park. This combination of modern renovation, usable land, natural surroundings, and proximity to city amenities makes 265 Big Fork Rd a rare opportunity in today's market.
