    What's special

    High ceilingsLarge fully fenced backyardInviting interiorsExposed beamsOversized islandRenovated kitchenStainless steel appliances
    Welcome to the historic Oliver House, a beautifully renovated Adair Park residence where original character and craftsmanship are thoughtfully paired with modern design. Built for a craftsman of the historic Woodward Lumber Company, the home retains a meaningful connection to Atlanta’s architectural past, with a renovation that honors its heritage while creating a warm, stylish and highly functional place to live. A generous front porch overlooks the greenery of Adair Park and sets the tone for the home’s inviting interiors. Inside, high ceilings, exposed beams, original architectural details and beautiful hardwood floors are complemented by carefully selected designer lighting, fixtures and finishes. The renovated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring an oversized island, quartz countertops, custom tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a Cosmo range, and a wine refrigerator. The oversized primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a spacious walk-in closet and custom organization system, along with a beautifully renovated bathroom that incorporates Craftsman-inspired details and contemporary finishes. Throughout the home, historic character has been preserved and celebrated rather than erased, creating spaces that feel authentic, collected and distinctly Atlanta. Outside, the home enjoys an exceptional location within one of Atlanta’s most charming historic neighborhoods. The home opens directly to a large, fully fenced backyard, providing plenty of room for entertaining, pets, gardening and play, with the convenience of seamless walk-out access from the home. An abundance of off-street parking adds another significant advantage rarely found in a historic neighborhood setting. Just blocks from the Atlanta Beltline, Lee + White, The MET Atlanta and an ever-growing collection of restaurants, breweries, shops and neighborhood destinations, the Oliver House offers the rare combination of architectural character, thoughtful renovation and exceptional connectivity. With Adair Park just beyond the front porch and some of the city’s most exciting destinations close at hand, this is intown Atlanta living at its most compelling.
