About This Home

As of April 2020

All brick, 2-story house in the sought after Normaltown/Chase St School District. The house is within close proximity to Piedmont Hospital, UGA Health Sciences Campus, Normaltown restaurants and shopping, and Athens Downtown. The home features all brick facade, hardwoods in the main floor, ample attic storage, new roof in 2016, and more! The property needs updating and TLC, but there is lots of opportunity in this house for both owner-occupants and investors. Currently a 4BR/2 BA with a 1 BR/1BA basement apartment; you can live in the main house and have a renter offset your mortgage. You could also use the downstairs unit as a in-law suite or gameday rental/VRBO. Additionally, this property used to be a triplex and still has three meters, so it can be reverted back to a triplex consisting of a 2BR/1BA, 1BR/1BA and 1BR/1BA to give you a different floor plan layout. (24 Hour Notice to Show. Tenant occupied through 7/23/2020 @ $2,200/month. There is a "master"lease on BOTH units at this price point.) NOTE: This could be sold as a "package deal" with 159 Gran Ellen Dr. (MLS#973581) Bring your offers! SOLD AS IS.
