In Chattanooga, downtown living has been gaining in popularity for some time now. There is no better part of downtown to buy a new home than Southside.
This hip neighborhood boasts bold new restaurants and art galleries, as well as a mix of young professionals, artists, college students and empty nesters.
Southside Village is a collection of newly constructed craftsman-style homes located in this historic district. These single-family homes were designed and built by Frank Goodwin, and utilize several green design features which save on energy costs and minimize any impact on the environment. The roof, insulation, windows, appliances and utilities are all specially chosen for their exceptional green qualities.
The houses in Southside Village are situated close to one another to promote a sense of community. Neighbors can intermingle as they walk, jog or bike in this scenic downtown district. The houses are colored in earthy reds, yellows and browns, which contrast with the white trim on each house.
These homes feature incredibly open floor plans. The kitchen and living room are separated only by a granite-covered island, which is perfect for serving food or drinks. Large windows take up much of the wall space, but are also energy-efficient and have solar shade screens. The custom cabinetry in the kitchen is integrated seamlessly into the wall, providing ample walking space.
Southside Village is a community focused on smart, practical living. The houses here are inspired by a time when downtown neighbors knew and trusted each other, a notion that the Southside community seems to be reviving in good fashion. Residents here enjoy more than just the convenience of living downtown. They can say they live in a community with character, a community on the rise.
