589 Johnston Road, McDonald, TN 37353 - Chattanooga Property Shop

$1,000,000

Set on 3.12 private acres in McDonald, Tennessee, this fully turn-key residence invites you down a long, secluded drive into nearly 5,000 sq. ft. of intentional, thoughtfully updated living. The setting feels like a quiet escape. Open land and soft woods surrounding a home that manages to be both grounded… Read More and grand at the same time. Inside, the main level is designed for how people truly live. The calming primary suite, freshly updated with new flooring. Sits tucked away for privacy, while two additional bedrooms offer comfort for family or guests. A warm and inviting family room becomes the natural place to unwind, while the dining room sets the stage for holidays, long conversations, and the simple joy of gathering. A secondary living room functions beautifully as an executive office, reading lounge, or creative studio. Flexibility without compromise. The lower level opens an entirely new chapter of possibility. Two bedrooms, a full bath, a large living area, and a bonus room create the perfect foundation for a guest suite, an entertainment hub, or perhaps most fittingly, a collector's floor. With garage capacity for up to five vehicles downstairs and two more on the main level, the home offers rare, secure, climate-controlled storage for car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone who appreciates space that works as hard as they do. Upstairs, the loft bonus room adds yet another layer of opportunity: a quiet homeschool space, a light-filled studio, or a tucked-away headquarters for a home-based business. Outside, the land becomes part of the lifestyle. A fenced backyard and separate fenced dog run keep daily living effortless, while the open acreage invites play, gardening, and the freedom to breathe. From the back deck, golden Tennessee sunsets stretch across the tree line. Quiet moments that become part of the home's rhythm. This property has undergone a comprehensive series of upgrades to support modern comfort, security, and ease of ownership: New HVAC systems: basement & loft (2025), main level (2022) New flooring: basement & primary bedroom (2025) Full interior repaint (2025) New Samsung Smart Appliances: microwave (2025), dishwasher (2024), double oven/stove (2024) New asphalt driveway (2023) 260 ft. of 8' wood privacy fencing + separate dog run (2024) Plumbing & electrical installed for basement laundry (2024) Multiple new 220V circuits (2024) Refreshed landscaping (2025) Exterior lighting upgraded with modern motion-detection fixtures, hidden GFCI outlets, warm GE candle bulbs, and Eufy security floodlights (2025) High-speed fiber-optic line professionally installed into the home (2023) Prewired for WiFi access points on all floors A full Eufy AI-powered smart-home ecosystem enhances everyday living, including: Eufy Smart Lock C220, dual-lens E340 video doorbell, four E340 floodlight PTZ cameras, and new Kwikset SmartKey door hardware on all exterior doors (excluding the keypad front door). A wired security system is also installed and ready for use. Built in 2007 with a floor plan that simply makes sense, the home balances privacy with connection, utility with beauty, and space with intention. It's the kind of place where holidays stretch late into the night, where friends drift between rooms, where kids grow up under wide Tennessee skies, and where every season brings its own chapter.
