About 463 E Illinois Avenue
Homes with history have a charm of their own, and this 1900-built Whitwell cottage is no exception. This home features a separate septic tank on the property where a house trailer was previously located. Resting on 1.3 peaceful acres at a corner lot, the home offers quiet mornings, open yard space, and the slower pace of small-town living. The home needs some TLC, giving you the chance to restore its character and make it uniquely yours. When you're ready to explore, enjoy being just minutes from four cozy mom-and-pop restaurants, and only 35 minutes from Chattanooga, where dining, shopping, and entertainment open up endless possibilities. For nature lovers, Nickajack Lake is just 15 minutes away, with a nearby boat dock that makes spontaneous fishing trips and sunset cruises part of your everyday life.
