1149 austin ave ne Atlanta, GA 30307

Description:

Incredible opportunity to own a piece of Atlanta history with income-producing possibilities! This quintessential Victorian was designed by Willis F. Denny II, the architect of a number of renowned Atlanta landmarks including Rhodes Hall and the Kriegshaber House, now Wrecking Bar Brewpub. The house was built in 1896 for J. Moreland Speer, Treasurer of the State of Georgia, whose initials can still be found etched into the glass of the enduring front entry door. 1149 Austin Avenue stands as a testament to the vision cast by the developers of Inman Park, Atlanta's first planned residential suburb; a rural oasis replete with curved streets, generous residential lots and verdant parks with enviable homes that took advantage of the neighborhood's perch above the city providing "the purest breezes and the brightest sunshine... where nature had lavished her best gifts" (Atlanta Constitution, 1896).
