Your Guide to Moving, Living, and Thriving in Metro Atlanta

1000 Gresham Avenue; Atlanta, GA 30316

$725,000

Set beside a tranquil wooded reserve in the heart of East Atlanta, this exceptional home offers a rare combination of privacy, scale, and thoughtful design. Effectively rebuilt and expanded in 2021, the residence feels custom from top to bottom—delivering generous living spaces, high-end finishes, and a floor plan that truly works for modern life. At the center of the home, a light-filled great room anchors the main level and flows effortlessly into a chef’s kitchen designed for both daily living and entertaining. The oversized island features an electric cooktop, complemented by stainless steel appliances, double ovens, and abundant prep space. A massive walk-in pantry adds everyday practicality, while a clever under-stair nook with built-in shelving and wine storage brings in a touch of personality and function. The main level is impressively versatile, offering a private guest suite with a full bath, plus a flexible bonus room or home office with its own entrance off the garage—ideal for remote work, creative space, or multigenerational needs. Two side porches extend the living space outdoors: one covered for everyday use, and a spacious screened porch overlooking the lush backyard and peaceful wooded views. Upstairs, a bright loft provides additional flex space—perfect for a media room, play area, or second living space. Two oversized secondary bedrooms share a stylish hall bath, while the primary suite is a true retreat. The expansive bedroom opens to a private balcony with serene treetop views, while the spa-inspired bath features heated floors, a soaking tub, an oversized shower, and a custom walk-in closet that delivers both space and organization. All of this is just minutes from East Atlanta Village, the Atlanta BeltLine, Edgewood Retail District, Ponce City Market, and major employment hubs including Emory University and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A thoughtfully designed home with custom-level details, exceptional indoor-outdoor flow, and a setting that’s increasingly hard to find—this is East Atlanta living at its best.
