This all-brick St. Elmo home at 4401 Tennessee Ave. sits at the foot of Lookout Mountain. We’re imagining being wrapped up in a blanket, holding a warm cup of coffee, and sitting on the swing on the covered front porch. There’s even an outdoor fire pit + indoor fireplace to enjoy when the weather gets colder.
This mountainside home at 815 S. Scenic Hwy. is affectionately known as “The Nest” — and you can see why. Be amongst the trees, and enjoy an enclosed porch + multiple wrap-around decks, giving you plenty of spots to take in the panoramic views.
This NorthShore property at 509 Eaves Pl. boasts city and mountain views with multiple balconies. Plus, there’s just something about the high ceilings and warm pendant lighting that makes it feel extra cozy for the fall.
Bonus: You’re near some pretty great hiking trails like Stringer’s Ridge + mountain biking trails like Aetna Mountain.
