Welcome to one of the rarest properties in vibrant West Midtown Atlanta! This eclectic and beautiful home features gorgeous wood beam ceilings, exotic stone countertops, shiplap backsplash, and custom terracotta flooring in the large kitchen, heart of pine flooring throughout, custom lighting, gated driveway, 8 year-old architectural roof, high efficient water heater, and double pain windows. You will adore the charming spiral staircase that leads you up to more than 650 square feet of multi-use loft with a private walk-out covered porch. You can pamper yourself in the oversized master bathroom with a restored cast iron clawfoot tub, and separate shower with dual-shower heads. This open floor plan offers 3 sizeable bedrooms, 2 full baths, separate mudroom with laundry, covered rocking chair front porch, and a large back deck shaded by a nearly 100 year-old water oak is perfect for coffee in the mornings and evening BBQs with family and friends as you will have a priceless view of the professionally manicured and lush backyard. NOW… FOR THE HUGE BONUS: 1756 Defoor Avenue features a vibrant history where a real-life 1930 model train (matching the year of the main house) caboose was brought onto the property in the mid 1970’s by way of laying rails through the backyard of multiple properties. She still sits on them today! Since then, it has served as a charming guest house sitting on the back of the property framing out the picturesque backdrop of the spectacularly landscaped and well thought out yard. The caboose guest house features 1 Bedroom, 1 Full Bathroom, full laundry, and kitchen. This is great for the in-laws, or proven high rental income ($2,200 a monthly income) house hacking to offset your mortgage!
