This is a rare opportunity to put your stamp on a home in one of Atlanta's most vibrant intown neighborhoods-Peoplestown! Nestled between Grant Park, Summerhill, and Chosewood Park, Peoplestown offers the perfect blend of a residential neighborhood feel with incredible walkability. You're just steps from the Beltline, Grant Park/Zoo Atlanta, multiple parks, and an array of dining options. This 1940s bungalow is brimming with potential, featuring incredible bones, historic charm, and key updates that will save it's new owner lots of hassle..not to mention money! Updates include a replaced sewer line to the street (5 years), HVAC (15 years), roof (9 years), water heater (5 years), and a hardwired ADT alarm system with Ring doorbell and smoke detectors. The home also boasts a rare original attached carport for sought-after off-street parking and sits on an impressive deep lot. The walk-in crawlspace feels more like a basement with high ceilings, ample storage, and interior and exterior access. It provides convenient servicing for the furnace, water heater, plumbing, and electrical-an uncommon feature in homes of this era. The lot, approximately 51 x 192 feet, is larger than most in the area, and the location on Atlanta Avenue is one of the neighborhood's most desirable. Stroll a few blocks east to enjoy Grant Park and Zoo Atlanta, head south to The Beacon and the Beltline, or wander north to explore the fantastic restaurants and shops along Summerhill's Georgia Avenue corridor. This home is priced with the needed updates in mind (bath, kitchen, etc) and is being sold As-Is. Lovingly maintained by the current homeowner for many years, it has avoided the damage often seen from careless investors or tenants. This is a special opportunity to build on the good vibes of a well-loved home and make it your own. Interior Photos coming soon. NO Assignment Contracts.
