Description

Nestled at the intersection of highly desirable Druid Hills, Morningside and Virginia Highland with tons of potential and great views on the quiet, private end of N Decatur Rd is a rare opportunity for an empty lot to build a new home or duplex. It would be challenging to find another opportunity at this price in such a prestigious desirable location, convenient to all Intown amenities and neighborhoods; lot prices in the area start at $500,000 and go up to $2,000,000. Due to special zoning MR-2...Nestled at the intersection of highly desirable Druid Hills, Morningside and Virginia Highland with tons of potential and great views on the quiet, private end of N Decatur Rd is a rare opportunity for an empty lot to build a new home or duplex. It would be challenging to find another opportunity at this price in such a prestigious desirable location, convenient to all Intown amenities and neighborhoods; lot prices in the area start at $500,000 and go up to $2,000,000. Due to special zoning MR-2 (which is multi-family), you could build a new single family home, transitional, modern, craftsman, etc, or multi-family. The side setback for MR-2 is 3 feet from property line and 10 feet from neighboring structures, so there is good flexibility in what you could build. Some preliminary ideas for floor plans and styles are included in listing documents, along with the survey and legal description. The topography of the lot provides for street level main floor and basement for walk-out back yard. The city skyline view from the main and upper levels is fantastic. Don't miss this opportunity to build something special at an affordable price in a walkable neighborhood convenient to all the fun in Intown Atlanta!
