This move-in-ready Cape Cod cottage brings all the character, location, and long-term potential you could want, whether you're looking for your own next spot or a smart investment project in West Buckhead. Inside, you'll find 3 bedrooms, beautiful hardwood floors, and a bright, open floor plan that connects the kitchen, dining, and living spaces perfectly for everyday hanging out or entertaining. Start your mornings with a coffee on the super inviting screened porch, and unwind later in the private, fully fenced backyard that has plenty of room for pets, gardening, or hosting friends on the 1/2 acre lot. As a huge bonus, there's a walk-up attic that provides tons of storage right now, but also offers major potential if you want to expand and add value down the road. Beyond the house itself, you are sitting in one of the absolute best pockets of the Upper West Side, ahem, of Atlanta that is, which means you can pretty much leave your car keys on the counter. The neighborhood is incredibly walkable-you can easily stroll over to grab your morning brew at Spiller Coffee, pick up treats at Henri's Bakery, hit up Yumbii Tacos for dinner, or run quick grocery errands at the brand new Publix. You're also minutes from the bustling hangout spot at The Chattahoochee Works, with quick access to the Silver Comet Trail. Plus, there is a park virtually in your backyard with a brand-new mini soccer pitch and playground. With top rental appeal, timeless charm, and an unbeatable location, don't sleep on this one!
