7709 Diamondhead Drive

Price improved. The yard hasn't gotten any smaller. In a market where ''yard'' means 40 feet of grass between you and your neighbor's fence, 7709 Diamondhead Drive is a genuine outlier -- and now, at $525,000, it's priced to move. It is rare to find a home for for sale in the area with more than 1.5 acres, and there's nothing else like it on the board. Set on one of the largest and most usable lots in North Heron Bay, the property delivers 1.61 level, tree-lined acres -- room for dogs to run, a garden to grow, a pool, a fire pit, or simply the kind of quiet that can't be manufactured in a newer subdivision. Two decks off the main level extend the living space directly into that backyard, making the indoor-outdoor transition feel intentional rather than incidental. Inside, soaring ceilings and a brick fireplace anchor the living room; a separate dining room and breakfast nook handle the rhythms of daily life without crowding each other. Upstairs, the primary suite includes an ensuite with double vanities and a flexible bonus space -- home office, nursery, reading room, your call -- alongside two additional bedrooms and a full guest bath. For those who need their home to work as hard as it looks: the garage features a tall door built for full-size trucks and high-clearance vehicles, and a full basement with its own drive-in garage door access handles boats, trailers, workshop equipment, or storage. North Heron Bay adds a community playground and picnic area. Harrison Bay State Park and multiple boat ramps sit under five minutes away. Ooltewah's retail corridor and I-75 access put downtown Chattanooga within 20 minutes -- and it's all zoned for Ooltewah schools. 1.61 acres. Now $525,000. The yard is real.
