Embrace the spirit of community in Atlanta's Olmsted neighborhood! Named after the renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted — yes, that Olmsted, whose genius extended far beyond NYC's Central Park — this vibrant intown neighborhood masterfully weaves urban living with natural beauty. Walk streets that echo his vision of harmonious design right in the heart of the city. This Craftsman-style home delivers meticulous attention to detail, innovative design, and contemporary living at every turn. Positioned directly across from East Lake Country Club and just blocks from some of Atlanta's best restaurants, the location alone is worth the conversation. And for families, the address puts you in the attendance zone for the highly regarded Drew Charter School — one of Atlanta's most sought-after educational options. The Olmsted Neighborhood wraps around more than 5 acres of curated greenspace — walking trails, a dog park, and a stunning 1-acre central green anchored by a community gazebo that was designed for neighbors to actually use. Inside, a thoughtfully designed floor plan offers three bedrooms and three full baths, plus a main-level half bath for added convenience. A main-floor fireplace anchors the living space with warmth and character, while numerous oversized, oblong windows flood every room with generous natural light. All three spacious bedrooms live on the top floor, each with well-appointed bathrooms to match. The lower level's multipurpose room adapts effortlessly — private guest suite with separate entrance, home gym, or the ultimate entertainment cave. Your call. But the real showstopper? The outdoor living. A large deck, a charming gazebo, and greenspace that was practically made for a crowd. Add a private 2-car garage and beautifully landscaped common space adjacent to the rear entrance, and this home checks every box on the intown living wish list.
