Property details

About 1157 Alta Ave NE

Apparently, this grand home was built in the Atkins Park neighborhood in 1918, but wanted to be an Inman Park dame so badly, she was moved here in the 1950s. Doesn't everyone want to live in Inman Park, with its proximity to the Beltline, gorgeous historic homes and the best festival in Atlanta?! Well, now you can too, and this much square footage for this price is rare. Start your mornings off right from the large, covered front porch, sipping coffee and listening to birds that live in the mature landscaping sing their morning meditations. Enjoy burgers and brews from the back deck while overseeing a competitive game of cornhole on the perfectly pristine turf in the backyard. Guests are easily accommodated between the four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, not to mention the spacious rooms are perfect for dinner parties. There is also a flex room upstairs that would make a great office or playroom, plus a spacious pantry, laundry room and a full unfinished basement. The garage could be used as a gym, converted to an in-law suite/ADU or as secure parking for one car. Speaking of ADUs, the current owner had plans to return the primary house to a duplex before life intervened, as well as adding a guest suite above the garage. So, if house hacking and density are your jam, those plans are partially approved and you could pick up where he's leaving off. Whether you're looking for a historic canvas upon which to create your dream home or a property primed for investment potential, this gal and her abundance of natural light and charm are ready for you and your dreams. Either way, the location can't be beat with easy access to the Beltline, Edgewood retail shopping district, Little 5 Points, Marta, and Dekalb Ave.
