    Heritage Restoration in Hixson

    Heritage work in Hixson usually means an older farmhouse, not a protected district.

    Heritage Restoration in Hixson

    This is not St. Elmo, and we are not going to pretend it is. Hixson's older stock is scattered rather than concentrated: farmhouses and early homes that predate the suburb growing up around them, most with no protection and a long history of pragmatic updates.

    Those are genuinely rewarding houses when someone takes them seriously. The approach is the same as anywhere else we work: establish what is original, keep it, repair it properly, and be honest about the rest.

    We work the roads toward Chickamauga Lake, Middle Valley and across the rest of 37415. More on Hixson and the neighborhoods we build in.
