About 2205 Desmond Dr

Gorgeous three-bedroom, two-bath, mid-century brick home with beautiful, spacious fully-privacy-fenced backyard, tankless hot water heater, new roof, all new appliances, immaculate hardwood floors, large, sunny windows that fill the rooms with natural light, a bright and cheery kitchen with vaulted ceiling and skylight, all just a 10-minute walk from Emory University's main campus, less than a 10-minute drive to Fernbank Elementary, and an enjoyable skip to the International Community School and Hess Academy. This calm and comfortable haven is a seven-minute, easy-going bike ride to Decatur’s vibrant downtown and a mere 15-minute commute to Midtown Atlanta. It is nestled in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the metro area—surrounded by landmark greenspace that will protect your peaceful homeownership for many decades to come: The stunning Mason Mill-to-Clyde Shepherd boardwalk—less crowded than the Beltline and far more friendly—is only a five-minute walk down the street, offering memory-making moments with river otters and herons. Medlock Park's ball fields, playground, and swimming pool is a short stroll away. The neighborhood is fully walkable, and the only noise is birdsong.
