They say the joy is in the journey, but lately the journey hasn't been so fun. Your rent is about to go up and your landlord still hasn't fixed the dishwasher. Chin up buttercup, don't hit the panic button yet. You might have just be looking at the sweetest turn-key-dream-of-a-home that could potentially be the solution to all of your problems. Welcome home to this west side treat that will make you want to bake fresh sourdough bread every morning in a kitchen that embodies the slow-living movement. Not into slow-living? no worries! Hop on your bike and go speeding down the Beltline that's less than 3 minutes away. Or maybe you need a dose of nature, well guess what?! You're only 4 blocks to Lionel Hampton Park. Have you ever heard of it? It's 3x as big as Piedmont Park with wild life and nature trails galore. The park fosters a sense of community, making it a place where neighbors become friends. 1771 Shirley St. isn't just it's good looking location. Imagine waking up in a spacious, sunlit primary suite that easily fits a king-sized bed. Every morning, greet the day by sliding open the doors to view your sunny, fenced backyard, and you'll wonder, "How did I get so lucky?" Slip into your robe, wander into the bathroom, and brush your teeth at the double vanity. Then, prepare for a luxurious, eucalyptus-scented steam shower in the enormous walk-in. Yes, life here is more than good. But the best part of this 1960's bungalow is the oversized laundry/mud room with its stacked washer dryer and plenty of space to store your bikes and new electric scooter. Who needs a Tesla when you have an electric scooter? Look at you, saving the environment one day at a time. Buying a home can feel overwhelming, sometimes it's as if the perfect moment slipped through our fingers years ago. However, they're not making any more land, and it's unlikely rent prices will drop anytime soon and your landlord doesn't deserve to take all your money and pay off his mortgage. So, why not seize the opportunity and take that leap of faith. A home isn't merely a financial asset it's where you plant your roots, build your dreams and make the best damn bread, spread with delicious, grass-fed butter.
