817 Elbert Street Southwest St SW, Atlanta, GA 30310
About this home
Looking for space, soul, and serious potential? This classic brick bungalow with a front porch sits on a rare wide and deep lot on Adair Park's best street, just steps from the Atlanta BeltLine, the buzz of Lee + White, and all the dining, drinking, and doing your weekends can handle. The house has been stripped down so that you can build it back up. With your creativity and cash investment (this one won't go conventional lending given condition), it will become the Southern Belle of this already great-looking block. Keep the charm, raise the roof (literally), add an ADU or build brand-new — this oversized lot gives you room to dream big. What's around you? Renovated beauties and fresh modern builds pushing $725K+. You’re not just buying a home, you’re buying into the next big thing. The property's R-5 zoning status allows Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in the City of Atlanta, subject to specific regulations. Consult the city for details. Covered front porch, brick arches, bungalow charm and sizable lot. This is a rare opportunity so don't wait. Belly up at nearby breweries, distilleries. Bike the BeltLine after stops at Bearings Bike Works and the BRAND NEW BeltLine Market. Get your game on at nearby Adair Park + Perkerson Park. Throw pottery at Molly Sanyour Ceramics Studio nearby in your backyard. Shoot the breeze at Sammy's Sandwiches & Coffee. Come up with your next big idea in the collaborative workspaces of Switchyards and Create ATL on an adjacent block. Adair Park is home to all the sunshine and joy that is happening on Atlanta's Westside so join the party. Whether you’re a visionary builder, a savvy investor, or a buyer who wants to be ahead of the curve, this is your shot to make a mark in one of ATL’s fastest-rising neighborhoods. Bring your plans, your people, and your imagination. Note that this is a total renovation / new construction project, not a livable house. There are no existing plumbing connections, fixtures, mechanicals or appliances. Owner has never occupied the property and makes no disclosures other than lead-based paint disclosure form required by law. Property sold as is where is.
