Take a drive by this home and just try not to fall in love! I dare you. A Piece of Brookhaven History - Move in and enjoy or Re-imagine and renovate - your choice. Introducing "Three Columns", a Southern classic built circa 1910 and one of the original home sites in Brookhaven. Gracefully poised behind three iconic Greek revival style columns and a dramatic front porch balcony, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath two-story home sits on a sprawling, level half-acre - one of the largest lots in the neighborhood! The main level boasts original hardwoods, a spacious living room with dual curved bay windows, and plantation shutters. The kitchen has been tastefully renovated in 2023 with white cabinetry, leathered granite countertops, and high-end stainless-steel appliances. Primary bedroom & bath on main level, additional primary bedroom & bath with fireplace upstairs along with 2 more bedrooms. Located just two blocks from the new Brookhaven City Center and MARTA station, this is a prime opportunity for smart a buyer. With approximately 2,400 square feet, an unfinished basement, and a large two-car garage, this home is brimming with potential. First time on the market since 1978 - don't miss your chance to own a piece of Brookhaven's legacy. Buyer agents welcomed.
