Hill Top Craftsman Home - Best Lot in East Atlanta (East Atlanta / Near Grant/Candler Parks) $399000 3bd





Location, Location, Location . . . add to that Position, Position, Position!

You'll regret not snaring this lofty acreage . . . Not likely to come on the market again for a very long time.

Have the confidence of a new house, cozy feel of historic architecture, grandeur of hill top setting, security of a secluded location, convenience of in-town living, and pleasure of a park land setting. Those are some of the joys I've experienced in my 5+ years as the original owner of this residence.



The house is super, but the property is one of a kind, like having premium box seats at the theater, except this is yours for 24/7. Sitting higher than everything around, the house gets the maximum amount of sunlight available. The hill top location is indeed on the top of the hill . . . not on a hill side. The hill top is gentle, thus the lot is almost entirely flat, making lawn care of a bermuda lawn a breeze. The lot is entirely fenced without division ( a gate at the driveway ), giving pets and kids a full half acre of lawn and woods. Can you envision having your North Georgia Mountain home only a few miles from midtown Atlanta and with a view of the downtown skyline (a nice evening treat during the winter months)? The street ends at your property, giving added privacy and security.

The main level has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with the 3rd bedroom, at the front of the house, often acting as a library/study or parlor. The middle bedroom has its own entrance to the hall bath. The upper level has only partially been subdivided and finished. Having 75% as much floor space as the main level, it is plum with possibilities. Thus far, only one wall has been added leaving 1/3 of the space as raw storage. The rest has been insulated and wall boarded, creating a 20' by 40' room for any purpose desired.



Since this house and another were built on this hill top in East Atlanta 6 years back, over 60 other new homes have been constructed on the hill sides and valleys below. Parkside Walk was developed down hill on the southern side of this rise, with 50 houses; only one or two left unsold. The area has fast been changing and there are other exciting developments on the horizon. In 10-20 years this area will be out of the reach of middle income folks who aren't already settled here.



Click on the Google map link below, it will put you at the closest intersection. Select 'Street View' and then turn due west. Move up the hill to see the property/house at the end of the street.
