Property Description

 

Welcome to 540 Parker Avenue, a classic 1940s bungalow offering an increasingly hard-to-find opportunity for affordable intown living in East Lake Terrace. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bath and approximately 1,080 square feet, this charming home combines original character with plenty of potential to make it your own. Inside, hardwood floors, a fireplace, built-in bookcases and a separate dining area reflect the home's original character, while the sunroom provides additional flexible space for a home office, reading room or casual retreat. The single-level floor plan is comfortable and functional, and the approximately .20-acre lot offers room to enjoy the outdoors, garden or explore future possibilities. Move in and enjoy the home as it is, renovate over time, or bring your vision and take advantage of the continued investment and new construction occurring throughout the surrounding area. The location may be the real standout. East Lake Terrace puts you just minutes from East Lake Golf Club and within easy reach of Kirkwood, Oakhurst, Downtown Decatur, East Atlanta Village and the shops and restaurants along Glenwood Avenue. Convenient access to I-20 makes getting to Downtown Atlanta and other intown destinations easy. Whether you're searching for your first home, an intown alternative to higher-priced neighboring communities, or a property with room for future improvements, 540 Parker Avenue offers character, location and opportunity in one of Decatur's most convenient intown settings.
