842 Dry Branch Court

842 Dry Branch Court is the kind of home Chattanooga rarely sees. A custom Dexter White build, designed and finished with a level of craft that sets it apart from anything else on the market. Coming through the entrance to Black Creek, the pace settles. This is a community built around a rare balance, private and unhurried, yet genuinely connected, and set among thousands of acres of protected land and trails. Resting on the 13th hole, the home draws the eye across the fairway to Mount Aetna in the distance. With seven thousand square feet of custom detail across seven bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and two water closets, the home carries that intention in every line. European in feeling, with stone, stucco, cedar, gas lanterns, and steeply pitched gables, it has a presence that is confident. Inside, the scale and the light do the work. Soaring ceilings, warm white oak floors, and handcrafted detail run throughout. The living spaces were designed to gather, cook, and host--with room to come together and room to retreat.The primary suite reads as a private wing, the lower level opens into a true entertainment floor, and the covered outdoor living space and fireplace tie the home to the natural setting around it. What makes the location so easy to love is how close everything stays. Set close to downtown Chattanooga, twice named Outside Magazine's Best Town Ever, the home is seven minutes from Interstate 24, your direct connection to every major route, and fifteen minutes from the city's finest dining, nightlife, and culture, including the riverfront and the Tivoli Theatre. For families relocating from out of state, the home is within easy reach of three of the region's most respected private schools: Chattanooga Christian School, Baylor, and McCallie. These are names that carry weight well beyond Chattanooga. Then there's the Club at Black Creek, the private heart of the community.
