As featured on "Flip or Flop Atlanta," this residence not only boasts reality TV fame but also showcases the remarkable enhancements made by its current owners, surpassing the show's original design. From the moment you arrive, the custom lime-wash exterior sets this home apart as truly one-of-a-kind.

Gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout the home, leading to the renovated primary bathroom that combines modern comfort with historical charm.

Lee + White, the Beltline's latest attraction, is just a stone's throw away, offering an array of dining and entertainment options. Proximity to Tyler Perry Studios and a quick 10-minute drive to the airport make this location ideal for work and play. The large, private backyard is a sanctuary with a charming pergola, perfect for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. Freshly updated paint inside and out adds a contemporary touch to this timeless classic. Seize the rare opportunity to own a slice of Sylvan Hills history with all the modern comforts you desire.
