Description
This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from January 05, 2024
Amazing opportunity in sought-after LaVista Park offers spacious 5 bedrooms, 5.5 baths with rare 2 car garage with Primary Suite on Main. Even more rare is the Nanny or In-Law Suite apartment (5th bedroom and bath) over garage. This full scale renovation included taking the top off existing home and adding a second story along with additional sq ft (tax record does not reflect renovation). This impressive home sits on a corner lot of two of the most desired streets in LaVista Park - Citadel and Brook Forest. A natural stone walkway punctuates the beautiful landscape and leads to an entry porch with tongue and groove ceiling. The entry foyer welcomes your guests and opens into a spacious living room with fireplace that is separated by a cased opening to the formal dining room beyond. The dining room features floor to ceiling custom display shelving and cabinetry. The bright and sunny family room features a fireplace and is completely open to the kitchen. The kitchen/family room opens out into the perfectly sized, private back yard. The kitchen features a quartzite topped island with seating, gas cooking, wine fridge, and lots of custom cabinetry for plenty of storage. Just off the kitchen, the mudroom connects the back yard and the garage and secondary side entrance. The main level features the PRIMARY suite which has a generous walk-in closet and luxurious bath. The bath features a separate tub and shower and a large double vanity. Upstairs there is a loft space/den perfect for tweens and teens as well as plenty of room for home office and two ensuite bedrooms that are generously sized. In the girl's bathroom, the built-in bookcase opens to reveal surprising attic storage. Above the large two car garage is a wonderful apartment that features a living space with built-in cabinets, granite countertop and mini-fridge. French doors open to a Juliet Balcony overlooking the yard. A large sliding barn door separates the bedroom and bath from the living space. Outside, the perfectly sized, flat, grassy backyard features a pavestone patio, gas firepit, play area and shed. The lush landscaping and fencing make this yard so private and terrific. Quality hallmarks throughout include 9' ceilings, solid hardwood floors. The renovation successfully left character and charm of an older house combined with a floor plan for today's lifestyle. LaVista Park is considered "Atlanta's most conveniently located neighborhood" with easy access to Buckhead, Morningside, Midtown, Emory, Virginia-Highland, Brookhaven, CHOA, Executive Park, MARTA, I-85, GA-400 and I-75.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI recently graduated from DHHS. I saw a lot of teachers leave and new ones come through who were just okay. A lot of things go unseen at this school. There are kids doing drugs in the restroom making it hard for those of us who actually had to use it, causing long lines and other bathrooms to close making the lines even longer. This resulted in tardiness. In my time the class change time was switched from 10min to 5 min. I don’t know what they were trying to do but considering the hallways were small and lots of students. It was hard to be on time. I cannot recall a single thing about what I learned there. I found the teachers to be uncaring in regards of mental health. I do recall a few teachers who went above and beyond for all students. But they were not the majority. There were always fights. Sometimes multiple per day. A car once caught on fire in the parking lot. Speaking of parking, they need to expand where kids can park. I had to pay $12 a day to be able to drive to school. I had after school activities and my parents couldn’t pick me up so I had no choice than to drive. I payed almost $600 in parking tickets and towing fees because I parked at the school. On campus parking was reserved for dual enrollment students and teachers kids. Overall. This school isn’t great, please if you want your child to succeed but they need a little help from teachers to do so, this is not the place.Other Review5mo ago - Briar Vista Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI've been very pleased with Briar Vista Montessori Program; this is our third full year at the school. The use of Montessori materials, the differentiated and tailored teaching to each child, as well as the 3-year mixed age classrooms have been great academically. Our experience at BVE has been better than what we found at some of the local private Montessori schools in the area. BVE teachers seem to genuinely love what they do, including the music, art, and PE programs. Like others have mentioned, BVE is small enough where the principal knows your child's name when they walk into school each morning, which is pretty rare in most of the overcrowded DeKalb County elementary schools.Parent Review3mo ago - Druid Hills Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe had high hopes for DHMS based on other people’s experiences we had heard, but the focus at the school is all wrong. The teachers spend more time dress coding girls than teaching. And none of the teachers are on the same page as to what is acceptable. My child has been removed from class many times due to leggings that one teacher thought were unacceptable yet later told by another teacher that they are acceptable. There is little to no respect given to the students by most teachers. Middle school is tough and an awkward time and we must remember the students are children. They deserve to be treated with respect. There are teachers that really should be fired, but due to their tenure, I’m sure they are untouchable. Screaming at children and making them feel less than is unacceptable in my opinion! Bullying is full force. Teachers do not treat all children equally. Counselors were very little help to me when I reached out. Shocking how many fights my child sees in the halls. The vibe feels more like a juvenile detention center rather than a nurturing educational facility. I think the school could make a big difference if only their teachers weren’t treating students like criminals.Parent Review11mo ago - Check out schools near 1385 Brook Forest Dr NE.
