What's around 980 Rawlins St SE

About this property

This classic 1928 Grant Park bungalow sits on a rare dead-end street, just moments from the Southside BeltLine, four blocks from Grant Park, and on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood, a combination that is incredibly hard to find intown. Standout features include a wraparound front porch, original tongue-and-groove ceilings, hardwood floors, abundant natural light, an expansive updated kitchen with vaulted ceilings, and an oversized primary suite with a double-vanity bath. Both the kitchen and primary suite open onto a large rear deck and spacious backyard. Rawlins Street is something special. The road comes to a gentle stop above a wide green easement, giving the block a level of stillness that most intown addresses simply cannot match. No cut-through traffic, no noise from passing cars, just the kind of calm that makes mornings on the porch feel unhurried and evenings in the backyard feel like a world apart. Neighbors know each other, pets roam, and there is a true sense of community. And yet, this quiet comes with exceptional walkability. The Southside BeltLine Corridor, set to open this spring, is just moments away, offering direct trail access to the rest of Atlanta. The Grant Park Farmers Market, Zoo Atlanta, restaurants, shops, and neighborhood favorites are all close by, making it easy to leave the car at home. From the sidewalk, the home presents exactly what people hope for when they imagine a Grant Park bungalow. Mature trees frame the property, and the wide front porch welcomes you in. Inside, the home lives larger than expected, with a flowing layout from living room to dining room to kitchen that creates both openness and connection. The living room is filled with natural light and anchored by a classic fireplace. The dining room features wainscoting and original built-ins, while the tongue-and-groove ceilings throughout the front rooms add warmth and character that cannot be replicated. The entire interior was freshly repainted in 2026, giving every space a clean, refreshed feel. Toward the rear, the home opens into a spacious kitchen with vaulted ceilings, wood-stained cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and a peninsula with breakfast bar. There is also room for an island and a casual dining area. The oversized primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, a tiled shower, and a double vanity. Both the kitchen and primary suite open directly onto a large rear deck, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. At nearly double the Grant Park average, the backyard is truly exceptional. Fully fenced and level, it offers space for entertaining, gardening, pets, or play, along with a storage shed for added functionality. Zoning allows for future expansion by right, including the potential for a garage, guest house, or accessory dwelling unit. A 2015 renovation included full HVAC replacement, crawl space encapsulation, and a new water main with freeze-resistant piping, and the roof was replaced in 2018. Homes like this rarely offer the full package: a quiet dead-end street, historic character, thoughtful updates, an oversized lot, and car-free access to everything that makes Grant Park one of Atlanta's most beloved neighborhoods. Here on Rawlins Street, it all comes together.
