CALLING FOR HIGHEST & BEST BY 5 PM TUESDAY, JUNE 11. Calling all investors, builders or homeowners seeking a project with great potential. Do not let this fantastic opportunity in Avondale Estates pass you by. This charming bungalow will need a major renovation, but the upside and ARV in the area are great! New homes in the area are also selling for a high price, so there are multiple strategies with this property. The home has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, a living room with a fireplace, and a den open to the spacious kitchen. There is a free-standing garage with a large room behind it which currently has a fireplace but also needs major renovation. The beautifully wooded and fenced backyard backs up to a charming "pocket park" assuring total privacy. Ranked 15th in the country for family-friendly cities, Avondale Estates has walking paths, a pool for residents, tennis, pickleball, a lake, and numerous events and festivals. The downtown area features several restaurants and shops and is extremely pedestrian-friendly. The City of Avondale Estates has a small-town feel but is inside the Perimeter and convenient to all that the city has to offer! Close to Marta, DeKalb Farmers Market, City of Decatur, Emory, CDC and I-285. Home is being sold "as is" with no disclosures.
