About 1242 Star Drive, Brookhaven, Georgia, 30319
Prime Brookhaven location - Largest lot in the neighborhood - Could be rezoned multi family (townhomes next door). It's like purchasing 2.5 lots. Flat, all utilities connected. Rezone and build 3 townhomes. Introducing “Three Columns”, a Southern classic built circa 1910 and one of the original home sites in Brookhaven. Gracefully poised behind three iconic Greek revival style columns and a dramatic front porch balcony, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath two-story home sits on a sprawling, level half-acre — one of the largest lots in the neighborhood (it's like getting 2.5 lots)! The main level boasts original hardwoods, a spacious living room with dual curved bay windows, and plantation shutters. While the kitchen has been tastefully renovated in 2023 with white cabinetry, leathered granite countertops, and high-end stainless-steel appliances, the rest of the home invites your vision and updates. Located just two blocks from the new Brookhaven City Center and MARTA station, this is a prime opportunity for buyers, renovators, or builders. Restore this beloved Southern gem to its original glory, or start fresh and build your dream estate — or even explore the potential for multiple town homes. With approximately 2,400 square feet, an unfinished basement, and a large two-car garage, this home is brimming with potential. First time on the market since 1978 — don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Brookhaven’s legacy.
