Property Description

Step into one of Southside's most iconic income-producing condos at 1617 Rossville Ave—where historic charm, modern comfort, and unbeatable location come together in a proven short-term rental performer. Originally built in 1910 and meticulously restored by a local developer in 2012, this former Masonic lodge now houses Fountainhead Tap Room on the main level and just five residential condos above, including this dramatic 2 bedroom, 2 bath residence. Soaring 25' ceilings, exposed beams, and oversized windows flood the space with natural light, while reclaimed heart pine floors, antique heart pine cabinetry, and countertops crafted from the building's original trusses tell the story of the building's past. The open kitchen and living area is perfect for hosting, complete with stainless steel appliances and vibrant, eclectic finishes that guests love. The primary suite offers a true retreat with a spacious bedroom, double vanity bath, and large walk-in shower. A second bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests, roommates, or a work-from-home setup. An elevator serves the residential floors, and just a few steps away you'll find a shared rooftop deck with panoramic views of Lookout Mountain and Chattanooga's Southside—a huge hit with visitors and an easy marketing win for your listing photos. With a proven record as a very successful short-term vacation rental, this condo is being offered fully furnished (with only a few sentimental items excluded), making it as turnkey as it gets for investors or buyers who want an instant, stylish city crash pad that pays for itself. The HOA dues cover WiFi, insurance, common area utilities, building maintenance, and standard HOA services, simplifying ownership and maximizing your time and returns. All of this is located within walking distance to Main Street's restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and entertainment, plus easy access to free public transportation. Whether you're looking to expand your STR portfolio or lock in a one-of-a-kind urban retreat with serious income potential, 1617 Rossville Ave is a rare opportunityschedule your showing and start planning your next booking.
