879 Arbor Hill Dr., Stone Mountain, GA 30088

The Mainstreet Community of Stone Mountain hits a lot of sweet spots. The homes that dot the winding lanes enjoy the benefits of tranquility, collectively creating one of those organic "kids riding bicycles" neighborhood vibes. It's only a few miles from Downtown and Perimeter by laid-back surface streets, but convenient shopping options are much closer. Peppering the landscape, loads of walkable public parks, a community lake, and clubhouse. Trees, well, everywhere. And in the middle, there's 879 Arbor Hill Drive, a two-story three bedroom two bath that, in addition to a few architectural nuances, just so happens to have received a recent cosmetic overhaul. And, by the way, it's priced to sell, so if you're a ready-to-act buyer, call your agent today and submit your best offer because homes of this caliber at this price remain rare in this evolving market. Beyond the curb appeal — a well-maintained, late-century-inspired mixture of brick and gables — is the downstairs common area. Think of it as a circuit, where the entryway leads into the recently remodeled, U-shaped kitchen. Stainless appliance package, painted cabinetry, and counter space to spare. The bright whites and natural light shine into every corner, due in part to the high ceilings. Anchoring everything, the fireplace, replete with tile surround and mantle. While we're still downstairs, you can also enter the kitchen from the finished two-car garage. The backyard is just the right size and already fenced in, just in case you're a dog owner looking for something turnkey. Upstairs, a central hall leads to three bedrooms (one ready to be transformed into a dedicated home office). Bonus points, particularly, go to the primary suite: in addition to being positively oversized and featuring a 9-foot walk-in closet, the bathroom is a gem, with a large garden tub and separate shower, tilework, and big window. Again, natural light is a big deal in this house. Starter home is a word that gets tossed around a lot, especially for homes that fall under the $250K mark. But with quality of location, move-in ready convenience, and room to grow into (not to mention the investment potential, especially in this popular neighborhood), 879 Arbor Hill may end up being a place the new owners will hold onto for a while. You could not get a better design and location for your long-term use. Priced to bring immediate attention at $249,900; serious inquiries only.
