Nestled on a deep lot in East Lake, this beautifully renovated home blends modern updates with classic charm. A cozy front porch leads you into a bright and inviting living room, seamlessly connected to a central dining area and the chef’s kitchen at the rear. Off the living room, a hall foyer leads to the guest bathroom and two generously sized bedrooms, each filled with original character. A newly added screened porch offers a tranquil retreat, easily accessible from both the kitchen and the primary suite. Speaking of the primary suite, it’s a true sanctuary, thoughtfully positioned at the back of the house for maximum privacy and comfort. The en-suite bathroom is bathed in natural light and boasts a spacious layout with a separate shower, soaking tub, double vanities, and a private water closet. Step outside, and you’ll be captivated by the yard’s potential for entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing. At the front, a charming picket fence envelops the manicured yard, complete with mature landscaping and river rock-lined planters, while the deep front porch adds timeless curb appeal. The screened porch leads to the backyard, which features a grilling deck, a level yard with a full privacy fence, ample sunny spots for gardening, and plenty of room for a pool. Recent updates include an electric vehicle charging station, new windows, additional insulation, and extended yard depth. The home’s location offers incredible convenience, with easy access to popular dining at 2nd & Hosea, shopping and eateries in downtown Decatur and Kirkwood, and more. East Lake is a vibrant neighborhood, home to the East Lake Golf Club, local festivals, a tour of homes, and a tight-knit community. This is your opportunity to put down roots in one of Atlanta’s most sought-after areas.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
