Let’s break down your 48-unit townhome development on 3.9 acres at 944 Emly Lane, Chattanooga, TN, under R-3 or proposed URM-3 (Urban Residential Multi-Unit 3) zoning.
📍 Site Summary
Address: 944 Emly Lane, Chattanooga, TN
Site area: 3.9 acres = ≈ 169,884 sq ft
Planned units: 48 townhomes
Proposed zoning: URM-3 (Urban Residential Multi-Unit 3) — or existing R-3
🧭 1. Zoning Overview
🔹 Current Zoning (likely R-3 Residential)
Purpose: Medium-density residential (duplexes, small multi-family)
Max Density: About 8 du/acre
Lot size (min): ~5,000 sq ft per unit (for single-family)
Height limit: 3 stories or 40 ft
Front setback: 25 ft
Side setback: 5 ft minimum
Rear setback: 25 ft
At R-3, 3.9 acres × 8 du/acre = ≈ 31 units max → your 48 units would exceed this.
✅ You’ll need a rezoning or a PUD/overlay.
🏙️ 2. Urban Overlay / URM-3 Zoning Option
🔹 URM-3 (Urban Residential Multi-Unit)
Purpose: Encourages compact, walkable townhouse and multi-family housing in urban corridors.
Density: Up to 20 du/acre (depending on design + access)
Height limit: 3 stories / 45 ft
Setbacks:
Front: 10–20 ft
Side: 0–5 ft (attached units)
Rear: 10 ft (min)
Lot coverage: 70–80%
Open space: 10–15%
Parking: ~1.5 spaces per unit (can reduce with shared drives or street access)
📊 3.9 ac × 20 du/ac = 78 units possible,
so 48 townhomes comfortably fit under URM-3.
🧩 3. Rezoning / Overlay Process (City of Chattanooga)
Step 1 — Pre-Application Meeting
Meet with Chattanooga Development Services (Land Development Office).
They’ll confirm feasibility of URM-3 or a PUD (Planned Unit Development).
➡ Website: chattanooga.gov
Step 2 — Submit Rezoning Application
To: Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Agency (RPA)
Include:
Site plan (lot layout, access roads, drainage)
Existing zoning map
Project narrative (design intent, housing type)
Fee (≈ $700–$1,200)
🗓 Deadline: ~6 weeks before the Planning Commission hearing.
Step 3 — Public Notice & Hearing
RPA Planning Commission meeting (monthly)
City Council second reading & vote
⏱ Total timeframe: ~60–90 days from submission to approval.
📐 4. Density Check for Your Plan

This fits URM-3 zoning and is ideal for a walkable townhouse neighborhood with shared green spaces and internal drives.
🏗️ 5. Development Concept (typical for 48 townhomes)
12 clusters of 4 units each
Each unit: 20×40 ft footprint → 800 sf per floor × 2 floors = 1,600 sf
Parking: 2 per unit (1 garage + 1 driveway)
Common areas: 15–20% of site
Internal private driveways + stormwater retention pond
In the heart of one of Chattanooga’s fastest-growing residential corridors, this is a rare opportunity to acquire 12 contiguous parcels on Emily Lane — a perfect canvas for a new residential or multifamily development. The surrounding area is in the midst of a major housing boom, with high-end homes selling at record prices and land availability becoming increasingly limited.
Currently zoned R-1 Residential, this assemblage provides an excellent foundation for rezoning to multifamily or higher-density residential use, giving developers flexibility to meet the city’s rising demand for new housing.

🎯 Implications for Your Development (48-Unit Townhomes)
Given your plan for 48 townhomes at 944 Emly Lane, here are how the marketing insights map to your unit-mix and positioning:
Target Demographic: With median age ~40 and household size ~2, many residents may be couples or small families. Your mix (20 units of 3-bed/2.5 bath; 10 units of 2-bed/2 bath; 18 units of 4-bed/3.5 bath) aligns well:
2-bed units: attractive for young professionals or downsizers
3-bed units: well-suited for small families using the neighborhood’s family-oriented vibe
4-bed units: appeal to larger families or multigenerational households, offering a premium tier
Pricing Strategy: With median listing prices in the $300k–$400k range in the immediate neighborhood (Weichert: ~$362k median listing) and higher value pockets (~$662k in adjacent Stuart Heights-Rivermont), you have room to position your product with premium finishes, modern design, and amenities, especially for 4-bed units.
Expect 2-bed units to market at or slightly above the $300k baseline.
3-bed units might target mid-$300s to low-$400s depending on finish level.
4-bed units might enter the $400s+ range given position and comparable high-end homes nearby.
Amenity & Lifestyle Positioning: Emphasize the family-friendly yet mature neighborhood: mature trees, winding streets, proximity to amenities, good commute to downtown Chattanooga, established neighborhood feel (Trulia referenced “great neighborhood for young families” in Stuart Heights). Trulia Real Estate Search
Turnover & Stability: With ~17% annual turnover, there is consistent movement in the housing stock — allowing for new product to attract buyers looking for modern and turnkey options.
Rental vs Ownership: While your development appears ownership-oriented (townhomes), rental demand may also exist given the area’s desirability and relatively modest household size. If units are offered with option to rent or flip, this flexibility may broaden the buyer pool.
