Property Description

Welcome to this rare East Lake gem-a beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated 1938 cottage just steps from the world-renowned East Lake Golf Club, home of the PGA Tour Championship, with proximity to Hole 6. Ideally located near Oakhurst Village, 2nd & Hosea, Downtown Decatur, and Avondale Estates, this home offers easy access to local restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and playgrounds-all in one of Atlanta's most sought-after communities. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home blends timeless character with modern enhancements and sits on a spacious, professionally landscaped corner lot, offering room for future expansion such as a pool, ADU, or play space on its flat, deep backyard. Inside, the functional layout is filled with natural light, featuring original hardwood floors, fresh paint, updated lighting and fans, newer windows, and all-new cordless blinds. The fireside living room flows into a bright garden room with French doors and an adjoining enclosed sunroom-ideal for year-round relaxation, reading, or creative space. The kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a new range, generous cabinetry, and ample prep space. A separate dining room and a cozy breakfast nook provide multiple options for everyday living and entertaining. Bedrooms are well-sized, with spacious closets suitable for guests, office setups, or creative uses. The private primary suite, tucked away at the rear of the home, includes a walk-in closet and an en suite bathroom featuring elevated ceilings, a double vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower. Additional highlights include updated plumbing and electrical systems, a French drain, a walk-up attic with shelving for extra storage, a partially finished basement perfect for a workshop or flex space, and a thoughtfully designed powder room on the main level. The flat, deep backyard features a stone patio-ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, lounging, or simply enjoying the lush surroundings. A horseshoe driveway provides ample parking. Convenient to both East Lake and Decatur MARTA stations, I-20, I-285, Emory University, the CDC, and Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Located near the highly sought-after Drew Charter School and in a sought-out public school system. A rare opportunity to own a character-rich home in a premier intown location.
