924 2nd Ave, Albany, GA 31701
What's special
Welcome to 924 Second Avenue, a beautifully restored cottage nestled beneath the canopy of live oaks in the storybook Palmyra Heights subdivision. Built in 1940, this charming 1,547 sq ft, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home has been completely renovated, blending modern comfort with delightful touches of nostalgia. The historic character is immediately evident—from the refinished original hardwood floors to the lovingly preserved telephone shelf in the hallway, framed by detailed molding—a gentle reminder of the home's vintage roots. The thoughtfully updated gourmet kitchen features new custom wood cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom tile flooring, all designed for both beauty and function. The electrical system has been fully rewired, and high-efficiency double-pane windows provide year-round comfort. Both bathrooms are fully renovated with decorative tile showers, subway tile tub surround, custom vanities, and updated plumbing fixtures. Enjoy relaxing in the cozy family room, complete with a fireplace, stately mantle, built-ins, and elegant crown molding, which continues into the spacious bedrooms. A large laundry room adds everyday convenience. Step outside to a secluded patio overlooking the fenced backyard, surrounded by stately mature trees that offer unmatched privacy, shade, and tranquility. This Palmyra Heights gem offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern updates, tucked away on one of the area's most picturesque, tree-lined streets. A rare opportunity to own a piece of the past—beautifully updated for today.
