Description

Perched on an ELEVATED LOT ABOVE STREET LEVEL on Memorial Drive for added privacy and featuring DOUBLE-PANED WINDOWS that contribute to a SURPRISINGLY QUIET INTERIOR, this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath 1910 Craftsman bungalow in Edgewood includes a fully fenced front yard and an oversized, covered front porch overlooking the 8-acre Walker Park directly across the street. Seamlessly blending historic charm with modern updates, the home offers original heart pine hardwood floors, high ceilings, four decorative fireplaces, insulated windows, HardiPlank-style siding, and a dedicated laundry closet. The spacious and social floor plan is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining, with rich architectural details and abundant natural light throughout. The professionally landscaped backyard serves as a private retreat with a mountain cabin-style aesthetic, a fire pit area, a CrossFit-style outdoor gym, and generous off-street parking for at least five vehicles. A producing blueberry garden yields gallons each summer, and the rear deck offers peaceful treetop views in warmer months and sweeping winter skyline viewsincluding the Bank of America building. Located steps from local favorites such as Pure Quill Superette, El Tesoro, and the Eastside Trolley Trail, which connects to the BeltLine and Pratt Pullman Yards, the property is also minutes from the Edgewood Retail District, Candler Park, Little 5 Points, and Inman Park, with convenient access to Grant Park, EAV, Downtown, and Decatur. With a new neighborhood restaurant set to open and the Memorial Drive beautification project scheduled for 2026, this already exceptional location is poised to become even more desirable.
