Description

Nature lovers, take a look! Tucked away at the top of a hill in the heart of East Brainerd, this spacious home offers a rare combination of privacy, beautiful wooded views, great school zones, and convenient access to everything you need. Surrounded by nature, the setting feels wonderfully private--yet you're just minutes from Hamilton Place Mall, Publix, restaurants, places of worship, and everyday conveniences. In the winter, the views through the trees are especially beautiful, giving you the peaceful feeling of being in the country without giving up convenience.
From the moment you enter, you'll notice the details that set this home apart, including soaring ceilings, double crown molding, hardwood floors throughout much of the main living areas, and two fireplaces. The main level offers an inviting open living room, kitchen with breakfast nook and pantry, a storage/utility closet, formal dining room, and a versatile office/study with French doors that could also serve as a quiet sitting room or additional living space. A bedroom with a full bath on the main level provides flexibility for guests, family members, or those seeking main-level living. The dual staircase will take you upstairs from the kitchen/living area or the front door/office area. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite becomes a private retreat, complete with a sitting room with fireplace, and spa-like bath including a soaking tub, shower, water closet, and double vanity not to mention the large walk in closet. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while the other bedroom enjoys a private full bath. A media room and the laundry room complete the second level, providing plenty of space for everyone to spread out, work, relax, and entertain. Outside, privacy is the name of the game. The home sits beautifully above the surrounding woods, with a fully fenced yard (new fence installed in 2026). A circular driveway welcomes guests to the front entry, while a second driveway provides convenient access to the two-car garage on the main level.
With 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, multiple living spaces, 2 fireplaces, abundant storage, and a Brand-New Air-Conditioning Unit, this home offers room to grow and spaces to suit every chapter of life. It's peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature--yet remarkably close to all that East Brainerd has to offer. Come and see why this one truly gives you the best of both worlds: the privacy of the country with the convenience of the city.
