Fixer Upper - This one calls for a buyer who can see past the current condition and recognize what is already working in their favor. This 1920s Capitol View Craftsman is a true renovation opportunity, not a cosmetic weekend project, but the bones, character and location give an investor plenty to work with. 10ft ceilings, original hardwood floors, classic Craftsman proportions and a deep front porch provide the kind of architectural foundation that is increasingly hard to recreate. Inside, the three bedroom, two bath floorplan offers more space and flexibility than you might expect from a bungalow. The kitchen and bathrooms are ready to be reimagined, while the existing floorplan gives a renovator options to improve connectivity without stripping away what makes the house interesting. Outside, a driveway provides off street parking and the backyard offers room to create the outdoor space buyers increasingly expect. The upside extends well beyond the property lines. Perkerson Park is just a block away, putting its playground, splash pad, tennis courts and nature trails practically in the neighborhood's backyard. The Atlanta BeltLine is also a short distance away, while Capitol View continues to add places that make everyday life more convenient. The newly opened Koncept House brings a food hall, Pilates, retail and creative spaces to the neighborhood, and The Guild is expected to add a neighborhood grocer and new restaurant spaces nearby. There is also something here that development cannot manufacture: community. Capitol View is a tight knit neighborhood where neighbors know one another, look out for each other and gather for resident driven events like First Fridays. For an investor thinking beyond the next renovation, the larger Southwest Atlanta story matters too. Major projects including the revitalization of West End Mall, Murphy Crossing, Oakland City Exchange and Atrium Health's purchase of The MET continue to bring investment and attention to the surrounding area. That combination of historic housing stock, BeltLine access, neighborhood amenities and continued development is exactly what makes opportunities like this worth a closer look. Bring the contractor, bring the vision and bring this 1920s bungalow into its next chapter.
