“A treehouse where childhood nostalgia meets valley views and firelit evenings”
This treehouse draws on memories of barn lofts and blanket forts, built with rough sawn barnwood oak, reclaimed tin ceilings, and quilt curtains that soften the light. The main level holds two rocking chairs facing a wall of reclaimed windows, with a leather sofa that converts to a queen memory foam bed. A kitchenette features a hammered copper sink set into black walnut countertop, stocked with pour-over coffee supplies, a water boiler, and locally made granola bars. A mini fridge keeps filtered and sparkling water cold, and a microwave handles simple meals. The loft bedroom feels like a grown-up blanket fort, with a carved oak queen bed, large skylights overhead, and a working 1900s phonograph for setting the mood. An antique quilt hangs as a privacy curtain, enclosing the space when drawn. The bathroom carries the same handcrafted sensibility: a moss-covered birdbath sink, exposed copper plumbing feeding a rain shower, and locally made rosemary mint toiletries. Outside, a soaking tub tucks into a nook of the wraparound deck, with a patio table seating four. Below the treehouse, a smokeless fire pit comes stocked with wood, charcoal, and s'more supplies.
Two massive oak trees support the front of the structure, while flowering redbud branches press close against the deck railing. The view opens to a misty valley, a wide bend in the Tennessee River, and distant mountains beyond. The property sits at the foothills of Lookout Mountain, fifteen minutes from downtown Chattanooga but feeling much further removed. Sunsets from this vantage point in the trees have a way of stopping whatever else you thought you might do.
Evenings here tend to follow a natural arc: open the complimentary bottle of wine, drop a record on the phonograph, and let the fire pit below come to life as the sky shifts colors over the valley. Mornings might find you in the soaking tub watching mist lift from the river, or rocking slowly by the windows with pour-over coffee. The proximity to Lookout Mountain means hiking and climbing are close at hand, and downtown Chattanooga offers restaurants and the aquarium when you want them. But most guests find themselves drawn back to the deck, watching the view change with the light.
