Property Description
Opportunity knocks in the heart of Grant Park's Historic District, at a price point that's nearly unheard of for this location. Whether you're a savvy investor, a forward-thinking builder, or a homeowner dreaming of custom possibilities, this property delivers a canvas for serious upside. This three-bedroom, one-bath home sits on a generous lot and is being sold as-is, but that's exactly where the opportunity lies. With a rear deck already in place and a full-height crawlspace for easy access to systems and storage, the groundwork is there for a thoughtful renovation or a transformative rebuild. Because the existing structure is non-contributing to the historic district, the door is open to a range of development possibilities: Build a brand-new single-family home with a permitted ADU or guest house (buyer to verify); or pursue a zero-lot-line replat and build two semi-attached homes under the property's R5 zoning, perfect for resale or long-term income (buyer to verify). Whether you're envisioning a custom home with long-term equity, a lucrative flip, or a rental investment in one of Atlanta's most desirable neighborhoods, this lot is a rare launchpad for your next great move. And the location? It doesn't get better: walkable to the BeltLine, Grant Park, Zoo Atlanta, and neighborhood hotspots like Grant Park Market, Six Feet Under, Ziba's Bistro and more. This is one of those rare, under-the-radar finds that savvy buyers jump on fast.
