Homes zoned for both residential and commercial use, also known as mixed-use properties, are gaining popularity for their unique blend of living and business opportunities. These mixed-use properties allow homeowners to live and work in the same space, offering both convenience and potential cost savings. As urban areas become more densely populated and the demand for flexible living arrangements grows, mixed-use properties are increasingly attractive for many buyers. They provide the opportunity to run a business from home, reducing commuting times and allowing for a better work-life balance. This dual zoning can be especially beneficial for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and small business owners who want the convenience of having their workspace just steps away from their living area.
Located in the Historic Midtown Garden District, this meticulously cared-for Craftsman home, owned by a renowned photographer since 1976, exemplifies the benefits of mixed-use living with historic charm and modern amenities. The main floor is ideal for office space, conference rooms or studios. It is zoned commercial and features period details like stunning dining room built-ins and six-panel pocket doors, with the option to easily revert to residential use.
The upper level of the home features a spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout. Originally a four-bedroom, three-bath home, with the ability to restore to its original floorplan and offers modern amenities and premium features. The kitchen features modern updates, including a Viking stove, Bosch dishwasher, and NEST thermostat, combining residential comfort with the practicality of a mixed-use residence. The terrace level, designed with historic brick archways, offers extra space for a cellar, gym, workshop, or more offices. This area’s versatility makes it ideal for entrepreneurs looking to expand their workspace or for a growing family needing more room.
With its dual zoning, flexible spaces, modern updates, and sought-after location, this mixed-use home is perfect for both entrepreneurs and families alike. Enhanced by the Piedmont Corridor renovation, it offers increased accessibility and appeal, making it a valuable and attractive option in today’s real estate market, meeting a wide range of needs in our ever-evolving city.
