Welcome to Historic Atkins Park!
The neighborhood was originally planned by developer Edwin Wiley Grove who developed the famous Grove Park Inn. Rarely found in any of Atlanta?s intown neighborhoods are the tree shaded streets of Atkins Park and the informally landscaped front yards which are a direct influence of the nearby Frederick Law Olmsted?s linear parks. This stately 1920?s Tudor Revival is only 1 of 12 homes in the neighborhood which include the original grapevine mortar stone columns and curbing which line the perimeter of the community. Wide sidewalks, mature azaleas, and other well-maintained landscaping make this home one of a kind.
The property has been carefully renovated and modernized over the years while keeping the historical integrity of the structure. All the original features you dream about are still intact - high ceilings, crown and picture molding, newly refinished hardwoods throughout ? it truly meets your historical charm expectations. The primary suite boasts separate custom walk-in closets along with an ensuite bathroom with serene touches- tasteful paint colors, dual shower, jetted tub, separate vanity and sinks along with plenty of cabinet storage. Upstairs the laundry room is positioned off the primary with California closets cabinets. Other interior features include - plantation shutters, gas fireplace in the living room, custom library for books and record collection, separate office for 2 with California closets cabinetry. Windows galore - lots of natural light! Exterior features include - 2+ car driveway, Pennsylvania blue stone walkways and patios, outdoor lighting and sprinkler system, woodworking shed, and additional storage shed, fenced-in dog yard/run and a fire-pit area in backyard. The current owner loved collecting unique plants for her garden ? there is a stunning Japanese Magnolia outside the kitchen windows, 2 Fernbank Rose Garden Rose bushes, and in the backyard is home to a sapling from the world?s largest rose bush -Tombstone?s Original Shady Lady. Come see for yourself the walkability of this residence, minutes from restaurants, bars, the Beltline, Ponce City Market, many area parks and Springdale Elementary.
