Property Description
Situated in the prestigious Morningside neighborhood, this rare, nearly one-third-acre property presents an exceptional opportunity for both homeowners and investors seeking to create a standout residence in one of Atlanta's most desirable intown communities. The expansive post-war Rambler currently offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a kitchen with breakfast room, living and dining rooms, a separate office, and both front porch and rear screened porch—providing a solid foundation for renovation or expansion.
The property's full, stand-up terrace-level basement offers tremendous potential to be finished into additional living space, a guest suite, or an income-producing apartment. The flat, level backyard slopes down from the main level—an ideal setting for a future pool, outdoor kitchen, or detached accessory dwelling unit (ADU). With the home's generous footprint, adding a second story could transform it into a modern two-level home with increased square footage and value.
The lot's gently sloping topography provides flexibility for both renovation and new construction. Positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street surrounded by recently built luxury homes, this property stands as one of the last remaining opportunities to reimagine a classic home or build new in Morningside.
Residents enjoy sidewalk-lined streets, a strong sense of community, and quick access to Atlanta's most popular destinations—including Morningside Village, Virginia-Highland, the BeltLine, Piedmont Park, and the scenic trails of Morningside Nature Preserve and Herbert Taylor Park. Zoned for highly regarded Morningside Elementary, the location combines neighborhood charm with unbeatable convenience.
Whether you envision a full renovation, a two-story addition, or a brand-new custom build, this property offers unmatched potential and location value. Don't miss your chance to invest in the heart of Morningside—schedule your private viewing today.
