All the boxes are checked on this perfectly located 1940's Lavista Park charmer. Priced at a quickly disappearing price point, ensuring a wise purchase. Just inside the Brookhaven city limits, it is literally a few minutes walk to restaurants, Indy Tara theatre, Publix and so much more. Imagine the rarity, convenience and desirability of stepping outside your home and having these amenities right there! Freshly painted inside and out. Featuring original hardwood floors, updated tile baths and a large .36 acre lot with private back yard. Enjoy the sun room featuring floor-to-ceiling windows for relaxing, a home office, workout or meditation space. Other pluses, unheard of in this price range, are a professionally enclosed encapsulation system, garage and permanent stairs to an expandabe attic, a tankless hot water heater and turn-around driveway. And to top that off, there is close proximity to the Peachtree Creek Greenway, Armand Park, Cheshire Farm Trail and Meadow Loop Trail. Convenience? You bet - to I85 * 400 * Virginia Highlands * Midtown * Emory * Shopping, restaurants and sooo much more. Perhaps one of the best intown locations. Come see for yourself!
