Renovated Solid Brick Ranch with easy access HUGE Basement and Peaceful Deck on a Corner Lot on Wide Quiet Street 15-20 Minutes from Downtown, Midtown, Airport, the Battery/Cumberland, Chatahoochee River, Smyrna! This Bolton Hills HOME has an open living/kitchen/dining area is larger than you would expect and pulls you right into the large rear deck with privacy wall. Great for Grilling, Entertaining, and Morning Coffee! Given the proximity to Chattahoochee River and Proctor Creek, there is more bird activity than you would expect - including frequent Hawks and even an occasional Blue Heron in Proctor Creek. Inside you will find fresh paint on a well loved and maintained (renovated in 2019) move-in ready home with tasteful touches such as original hardwood floors, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, clean retro bathroom, new windows, and a Walk-in Pantry. Additionally, Electric has been upgraded and has new water Heater. 1,000 sqft Basement has good natural light from 3 full size windows and has been fully waterproof painted so with the help of the dehumidifier/portable A/C unit, it stays dry and doesn’t smell like an icky basement! Its a blank canvas for your workshop or renovation ideas including expansion or a completely separate ADU living space. You will need to confirm that with the city of course though! Access through upstairs, back yard, or driveway- which would be great location for some French doors. Previous owners used it as kids play area and office. Fenced in back yard offers additional privacy, security, and easy smart phone (or key) controlled gate access from driveway. This is a proper HOME not a shabby flip you will wish you never came to. Easy to show!
