Wow! Nearly an acre of in-town Atlanta land with room to build two homes! The old house is ready to come down, and the slab and driveway are already in place, so you can get to work faster and spend less on early site prep. The lot size gives you real room to explore splitting the property into two parcels!! You're about 6 minutes from the airport and Downtown Atlanta, minutes from the BeltLine, Pittsburgh Yards, and Browns Mill Golf Course, and just across from Lakewood Amphitheatre and Lakewood Stadium. The Lakewood Trail, now under construction, will connect to the BeltLine, and South Bend Park is close by with walking paths and a pool. Cinespace and Tyler Perry Studios are nearby, which adds steady demand from the film-industry workforce. Acreage like this is rare this close to town. Come see it before another builder does!!
Polar Rock, located between Lakewood Heights and East Point, is a residential and industrial Atlanta neighborhood with rail-side warehouses and modest mid-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Lakewood Avenue SE and Jonesboro Road SE corridor, where auto shops, small storefronts, and freight traffic set a working-city rhythm. Lakewood Amphitheatre anchors the area’s event calendar, while the Atlanta BeltLine Southside Trail and the Lakewood/Fort McPherson MARTA station shape daily movement. Streets near the rail lines read utilitarian, with long blocks and wide rights-of-way. Pocket greenspaces and the nearby Lakewood Park add breathing room. The feel is practical and grounded, with city infrastructure close at hand.
