Remodeler’s Dream & Investor Opportunity in Red Bank!
Bring your vision to this unique Red Bank property with tremendous potential. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers approximately 2,050 square feet and is ready for a full remodel, providing the right buyer or investor with a blank canvas to create something special.
The home has already been taken down to the studs, making this an ideal opportunity for an investor, builder, or experienced buyer looking for a project with upside. The property also features approximately 193 feet of road frontage and a substantial cleared area, creating the potential for an additional structure or future development opportunity, subject to zoning and approvals.
A detached garage with basement storage provides additional utility and could offer excellent workshop, storage, or future-use possibilities.
Located in the desirable Red Bank area of greater Chattanooga, this property offers convenient access to downtown Chattanooga, North Shore, Hixson, and surrounding amenities.
Whether you’re looking to create your next investment project, build equity through a major renovation, or explore the property’s development potential, 278 Sims Dr is ready for your vision.
The property is sold as is so bring your plans and see the possibilities!
