About this home
What if your home office, art studio or workout room did not have to compete with one of your bedrooms? This Capitol View craftsman pairs three bedrooms and two baths with a detached finished bonus space in the backyard, giving you something increasingly valuable: room to live, work and create without asking the main house to do everything. And while the floorplan works for life today, the character is unmistakably original. Some of the best features of this home have been here for nearly a century. Original hardwood floors, 10ft ceilings give the home an immediate sense of scale, preserved trim and baseboards, a fireplace with its lighted built in bookcase, and even a mural that has been part of the home for at least 30 years gives the home a sense of history and tells the story of a house that has been loved rather than simply renovated for resale. The living room centers around the original fireplace and opens through a wide doorway into the dining room, giving you separate spaces without closing everyone off from one another. Continue through butler's passage with it's built in window bench to the kitchen that has been thoughtfully updated without trying to turn a 1920s bungalow into something it was never meant to be. There is no shortage of cabinetry, storage and countertop space in this kitchen. Stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, handle the practical side, and the layout keeps the room feeling current. From here, step directly onto the large rear deck, creating an easy connection between the kitchen and backyard when dinner moves outside. Speaking of the backyard, it’s a sanctuary and garden that feels like it belongs somewhere much farther from the city. Built in planter boxes surround the deck, while a rain garden and turf provide you with a low maintenance space. There are multiple places to sit, gather and relax in this fully fenced in backyard. And then there is the bonus which deserves its own moment. Tucked into the backyard is a detached finished bonus room. The current owners have used it as a home office, but its next chapter is entirely up to you. Gym. Art studio. Creative workspace. Reading room. Music room. A place to take a Zoom call without hearing what is happening inside the house. Having a finished, separate space just steps from the back door gives you flexibility without sacrificing one of the three bedrooms. A gas tankless water heater and approximately 9 yr old roof add practical updates without giving you a long to-do list. And then there is Capitol View. Perkerson Park is just a block away with its playground, splash pad, tennis courts, trails and acres of green space, while the Atlanta BeltLine is a short distance from the house. This is also a neighborhood where community is more than a marketing word. Neighbors know one another, look out for each other and gather for resident driven First Fridays each month. There is plenty happening close to home, too. The Guild at 918 Dill Avenue is bringing a neighborhood grocer focused on fresh, affordable food along with three spaces for local food businesses. Nearby, Koncept House has added a food hall, Pilates, boutiques, creative studios and experiences to the neighborhood. And Southwest Atlanta's next chapter is taking shape around it. Murphy Crossing is moving forward with plans for a major mixed use BeltLine development, while the broader area continues to see investment connected to West End Mall, Atrium Health's acquisition of The MET and Oakland City Exchange. For a buyer thinking about both lifestyle today and the long term trajectory of the neighborhood, there is a lot to pay attention to here. But the best part of this home may be that it does not feel like someone erased its history to make it marketable. The old and new coexist. The quirks remain. The useful updates have been made. And after roughly a century of families adding their own chapters, this Capitol View bungalow is ready for whoever gets to write the next one....
