About This Home
Qualified buyers can purchase this home with NO MONEY DOWN when using Preferred Lender! Turnkey, income-ready, and just the right amount of fun—this Lenox Place gem is perfectly suited for full-time living, a weekend in-town escape, or a ready-to-go investment. Set in a prime Decatur location with easy access to Adair Park, MARTA, and the energy of Decatur Square, Oakhurst, Kirkwood, and Candler Park, you’re never far from great dining, local favorites, and everyday conveniences. Inside, the vibe is equal parts modern and warm. The open living space flows into a fully renovated kitchen and dining area featuring quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, custom shelving, and eye-catching brick and wood accents that give the home real personality. The primary suite delivers with a newly added ensuite bath, complete with subway tile and a stylish barn door. Updates? Already done. Refinished hardwoods, fresh paint inside and out, updated lighting, plus plumbing improvements including new drain lines and cleanout—so you can focus on enjoying, not updating. Outdoor spaces keep the momentum going. A brand-new rear deck is ready for hosting or unwinding, while the screened front porch offers a cozy, year-round hangout. There’s also a covered storage area that flexes easily as a workshop, bike storage, or bonus utility space. Parking is simple and convenient right out front. And here’s where it gets even more interesting—this home is already a guest-favorite short-term rental with a track record of 5-star stays. Whether you’re looking for income, a personal getaway, or a bit of both, the flexibility is built in. Financials available upon request, and it can be sold fully furnished for a true plug-and-play experience. No HOA. Low maintenance. High versatility. A home that works just as well as it plays. If you want, I can dial this slightly more playful or slightly more luxury-polished depending on your target buyer.
