Welcome to 1740 Fairbanks Street—your serene sanctuary in Sylvan Hills! Tucked into lush landscaping with mature trees, flowering plants, and vibrant blueberry bushes (yes, they overflow in June & July!), this nature-lover’s dream home offers a rare blend of privacy, charm, and convenience just moments from the Atlanta Beltline Southside Trail. Step inside to find restored original hardwoods, large windows and sun-filled room, a cozy stacked-stone decorative fireplace anchoring the spacious living room. The side porch-turned-sunroom offers flexible space for an office, playroom, or creative studio. The open-concept dining and kitchen area is perfect for entertaining, featuring newer appliances and a brand new Bosch dishwasher (2024). The primary suite includes ample closet space and an ensuite bathroom with original vintage tile that is still in great shape. Two additional bedrooms offer versatility, each with incredible light and views of the natural surroundings. A second full bath, hallway laundry nook, and tons of character round out the interior. Outside, the true magic begins: a sprawling backyard oasis with thoughtful landscaping and a wooded upper terrace that’s part of the property. Imagine evenings under the trees, dogs running free, and native birds singing above. The garage has been enclosed and expanded -- it is currently used as a home gym— but also ideal for a workshop, studio, or party space. Located just minutes from the Southside Beltline Trail, Lee + White food hall, a championship caliber disc golf course at Perkerson Park, breweries, shops, and a MARTA station only a mile away. Easy access to the airport and vibrant surrounding neighborhoods like East Point, Hapeville, and College Park. Nature, history, and convenience—all wrapped into one beautiful home. Come experience 1740 Fairbanks Street today!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
