luxury real estate for sale Decatur, United States

Druid Hills is an Atlanta Historic Intown neighborhood, prestigious and sought-after with renovated historic homes from the early 1900's and a small number of new construction homes build to blend with the existing homes; prices range on average from $1 million to over $6 million. Druid Hills is bordered on the south by historic Olmsted Park and is known for its trees, parks, sidewalks, village and proximity to Druid Hills Golf Club, Emory University and Hospital and the CDC. This is an unusual opportunity to get three contiguous lots in Druid Hills which rarely has a lot available for new construction; the three lots have a total of 174 feet frontage and all are 217 feet deep; the individual lots are 56, 50 and 68 feet across the street frontage; the addresses for the three lots are 519, 523 and 527. The lots are street level, then dip down and then back up to the back of the lot, so a basement would be appropriate. There is a plat of the three lots included in this listing information. New construction in Druid Hills requires the approval of the Druid Hills Historic Committee. This sort of opportunity is an anomaly and unlikely to be available again.
