This beautifully preserved bungalow offers vintage charm with modern amenities. Walking through the front door, you are met with a large living room with a sunroom attached. The sunroom has wood paneling, a tiled floor, and wooden blinds. Walking further into the home the dining room has vintage-inspired wallpaper. A bright kitchen leads you into the family room with a working fireplace, a wet bar, and ample storage closets. Stepping outside to the patio you have access to the driveway and the large fenced-in backyard. This terraced garden has a large slate-tiled patio under the trees, a refurbished shed, and a covered sitting area. Perfect for relaxing. Back inside the home, the primary bedroom has a custom walk-in closet, original tilework in the hall bathroom, and another spacious bedroom. In the basement, there is the laundry and an extra room with a fireplace that gets natural light and has access to the driveway. The home is 1.5 miles from the beltline, .4 miles to Perkerson Park, 2 miles from Lee and White, which offers food, drinks, and fun, and 10 minutes from the airport.

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by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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