501 Barnhardt Cir

Description

Amazing opportunity to own one of the most unique properties on Barnhardt Circle! Originally built as the Guard House in 1910 at was what was know then to be ''the largest and finest'' Calvary post in the US. This property is rich in history and has remained with the same family for nearly 40 years. Presently the home has been modified to include 3 separate apartments and what was once the jail is now a massive warehouse on the back of the property. This warehouse has it's on entrance from Hedekin Circle and this portion of the building can be rezoned to be commercial if desired. Parking spaces have also been approved for the side of the building and with the success of the new Stable 41 Farmer's Market that takes place in the pavilion just behind the warehouse, there's a nice flow of potential customers. The location is fantastic and there's a hospital, post office, grocery store, restaurants, shopping and even a National Military Park all about a mile or less from the property. Downtown Chattanooga is only about 15 minutes or 8 miles down the road. On the main level, apartment 1 is approximately 1200 square feet and has 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, kitchen, laundry room, and a separate living & dining room. Apartment 2 is a one bedroom/1 bath with the original kitchen sink and cabinets. Lastly, studio apartment 3 has a separate porch entrance facing second street. There's also a large attic that goes across all three apartments as well as a full basement with the original Boiler and coal room, as well as a 1/2 bath. Apartments 2 & 3 are currently occupied, but there are pictures of both spaces. Schedule your showing today and check out apartment 1, the warehouse, and the basement. It's said the concrete floors are 3-4 ft thick to prevent inmates from escaping. Gorgeous floors and with solid construction and materials, this home could use a little TLC to make it your own...but the quality and pride that went into constructing this building is apparent.
