Endless Possibilities in Prime Sandy Springs Location! Extraordinary opportunity in the heart of the prestigious Riverside neighborhood. Nestled on a private 1.00-acre corner lot, this classic Tudor-style residence offers unmatched potential in one of Sandy Springs’ most desirable locations and the pictures show what a few updates like new floors and a coat of paint can do! Zoned RE-1 Residential Estate and located in the top-tier Heards Ferry Elementary, Ridgeview Charter, and Riverwood International Charter school districts. Whether you're envisioning a custom-built dream estate or seeking a prime renovation opportunity, this property delivers. Set well back from the street, the home features traditional charm, generously scaled rooms, and unique architectural elements. The main level offers multiple living spaces, including a welcoming foyer, formal living and dining rooms, a cozy family room with wood-beamed ceilings and brick fireplace, and a kitchen with breakfast area. An additional main-level bedroom with full bath could serve as a guest suite or smaller primary bedroom.

This space opens to a large deck overlooking the expansive backyard. Upstairs, the oversized primary suite includes its own sitting area with fireplace, enormous walk-in closet, and full bath—along with potential for further attic expansion. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the upper level. The terrace level features a finished recreation room perfect for a media space or game room, plus two large unfinished areas offering endless options for storage or future expansion. Outdoor living and expansion potential is a huge plus! The newly fenced backyard is ideal for pets and outdoor recreation, with ample room to add a luxury pool, outdoor kitchen, or full-scale addition. The property line extends well beyond the current fence, offering even more usable land. A public sewer line is accessible nearby on Heards Creek Drive NW, adding value and flexibility for redevelopment. This coveted address offers quick access to I-285, top-rated schools, the Chattahoochee River, local parks and trails, premier golf courses, shopping, dining, and everything that makes Sandy Springs one of metro Atlanta’s most sought-after communities.
