Don't miss you chance to own this quintessential, Druid Hills, solid brick bungalow in an amazing location, directly behind Emory University campus. The large inviting front porch/patio is so welcoming and provides an extension for entertaining or just relaxing to soak in the beauty of spring in Atlanta. Upon entering the home, one is greeted by an expansive living room anchored by a masonry fireplace. The office/library is adjacent to the living room and is bathed in natural light as is the large dining room. The enormous kitchen has ample counters and cabinets and so much potential. Leading from the common spaces is the classic central hall where one finds the three bedrooms and 1.5 baths. Permanent stairs to the enormous attic makes this home ideal for future expansion. Behind the property, a lovely shaded patio is surrounded by azaleas and hydrangeas. A single car garage has a potting shed off the back
