Description

Terrific bargain! Great 5,000 square foot home for only $168 per square foot (best deal ever inside the Beltline). House needs some additional work, but has fabulously renovated kitchen with beautiful granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Back yard needs landscaping, but house sits on slightly more than one-half acre lot (again, very large for ITB),with newly landscaped front yard. With just a few updates, this house becomes a beautiful showplace in a much sought-after school district.Terrific bargain!
