Calling all savvy investors and visionary homeowners - this is your opportunity to transform a solid brick home with great bones into something truly special. With an ARV of $425,000+ and surrounded by appreciating properties, this is a smart move in Meadowbrook Acres-Belvedere Park, one of Decatur's fastest-rising neighborhoods. Sitting on a spacious 0.7-acre lot, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers plenty of room to expand. Enclose the carport and reconfigure the layout to easily create a 4-bedroom, 3-bath modern home. The unusually tall crawlspace - up to 6 feet high in most areas - makes renovations easier and more flexible. Picture opening the kitchen to the living room to create the airy, open-concept flow today's buyers crave. Whether you're planning a fix-and-flip or using a 203(k) or similar renovation loan, the potential here is undeniable. Prefer to renovate and hold? A simple update - new kitchen and bath - positions this home as a rental gem with estimated rents around $1,700/month. Location? You're minutes from vibrant Avondale Estates, named one of the best small-town brewery cities in the country. 10 minutes to Downtown Decatur, Kirkwood, 2nd & Hosea, and with easy access to Emory, CDC, I-285, I-20, and Downtown/Midtown Atlanta, this is the convenient lifestyle today's buyers and renters want. Bring your contractor and your imagination and don't miss your chance to bring your design ideas to life in one of Decatur's most desirable up-and-coming neighborhoods! Agent/owner
