Situated on a rare oversized intown lot with frontage on both Holman Avenue and Best Drive, this updated midcentury brick ranch offers unique possibilities. The front door is located off sidewalk-lined Holman Avenue and the back of the property provides easy access from Best Drive, ideal for a future detached garage with a guest apartment above, a pool house, or additional parking. The large, flat yard is perfect for entertaining, gardening, or even adding a pool. Located in the highly desirable Normaltown neighborhood, you’ll be within walking distance of the new University of Georgia Medical College, Piedmont College, Piedmont Hospital, St. Mary’s Hospital, and the popular farmers market in Bishop Park. You can grab a pizza at Automatic, enjoy a coffee at Sips, or explore the many local shops and restaurants just minutes from your front door.
Great curb appeal greets you with a large grassy front yard, a stone path, and an inviting yellow front door. Inside, the living room features hardwood floors, abundant natural light from triple front windows, and a brick wood-burning fireplace that can be converted to gas logs. The open-concept layout flows into the dining room and renovated kitchen with white cabinets, an oversized island, leathered black granite countertops, white subway tile backsplash, wood vent hood, and gas range; a perfect setup for any home chef who loves to cook and entertain. The spacious screened-in side porch is located off the dining area, perfect for enjoying fall afternoons, and connects directly to the backyard for seamless indoor-outdoor living.
The oversized primary suite offers both a sleeping area and sitting area, hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and a ceiling fan. The renovated primary bath feels like a private spa with a double vanity topped in granite, an expansive tiled walk-in shower with frameless glass door, and abundant storage space; ideal for keeping everything neatly tucked away. Two secondary bedrooms share an updated hall bath with a white vanity, granite countertop, shower/tub combo with tile surround, and charming period tile floors. Hardwood floors extend throughout the home with no carpet anywhere. A large laundry room provides extra storage space, and the backyard’s size and flat layout make it ideal for gatherings, recreation, or future expansion.
