About This Home:
This is a newer (1999) 3-level, 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath brick townhome for sale in Atlanta's popular Midtown neighborhood. Fee simple townhomes like this are very rare in Midtown and don't often come on the market. This is an end unit and has 2 large decks plus a drive-under 2-car garage. It has a wonderful, open floorplan ideal for entertaining. The main level features a large living room with fireplace and patio doors out to the back deck; a large formal dining room; a granite and stainless steel kitchen with breakfast bar; and a guest powder room. Upstairs, there are 2 big bedroom suites, including the owners retreat with a large master bedroom, huge walk-in closet, and luxurious private bath with jetted tub, separate shower, and double vanity. The 2nd bedroom suite has a private door into the full hall bathroom. On the ground level, there's a 3rd suite that also makes a great family room, home office, or media room if not needed as a bedroom. It features a large bedroom with adjoining full bath (with walk-in shower) and a private door out to a fully fenced patio area. There's also a large, private, wrap-around deck on the side of the townhome.

Midtown is a lively and energetic community. It is a historic neighborhood located just north of Downtown Atlanta's central business district. The area features fine turn of the century homes in a variety of styles as well as a large number of smaller bungalows from the 1920s. Midtown residents benefit from the wide array of restaurants, clubs, and arts venues in the area. The neighborhood is politically active and boasts strong and effective neighborhood and business associations. The Midtown Alliance spends millions of dollars to provide additional community services and to improve infrastructure. Two of the organization's initiatives are Midtown Blue (a full-time, private police force staffed by off-duty police officers) and Midtown Green (an environmental maintenance crew that scours the area to eliminate debris and visual clutter).
