If you are looking to restore and renovate a 1924 home in a sought after location, this is your opportunity. Situated in the heart of Grant Park, 788 Rosedale is one block from the Atlanta Zoo and is filled with old world charm. The original hardwood pine floors, solid wood pocket doors, picture rail, and four decorative fireplaces with mantels will send you back in time. The custom made stained-glass prismed doorway panels cast afternoon sunlight across the living room and library. 12-foot ceilings greet you upon entry and a soaring cathedral hallway with skylights is not far behind. The main level features separate Living, Dining and Library rooms, a large Kitchen with a breakfast nook aside French doors that open on to a deck, two bedrooms and two bathrooms – one of which is ensuite. An expanded second floor with a full bathroom, walk in closet and sunroom is begging to be renovated into an owner’s suite. A level flat backyard opens up a myriad of possibilities. The newly announced paving of the Beltline is .5 mile walk. Head to the Farmer’s market on Sunday or stroll to the Zoo and pick up a sandwich at Bennet’s Market and Deli. Wake up early and catch the newest edition of the Porch Press at a cafe reminiscent of a 60s coffeehouse.
