Making the grade: Boutique student housing offered near UTC

Some of the new housing around the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, where an array of apartments has gone up in recent years, could change hands.

The Edge Chattanooga at 422 Vine St. is a 33-unit, five-story structure that's on the market for $6.5 million, according to commercial real estate broker Four Point Investment Sales Partners.

The company cites the property's location on a corner just off of UTC's campus, and "best-in-market interior finishes and community amenities."

The Edge is termed a boutique student housing property located in an Opportunity Zone, which allows future investors and developers to take advantage of a federal program to improve surrounding communities.
