A captivating trend emerging in Atlanta’s hot housing market is the blending of vintage character with contemporary design. Homebuyers, especially millennials, find themselves drawn to residences marrying old and new – homes preserving their historical charm while integrating modern amenities and design found in today’s luxury homes. With Millennials currently making up the second largest group of homebuyers, these older homes have been in hot demand.
This impeccably renovated, five-bed, four-bath home in East Atlanta Village is a perfect example of the charm of the 1940s and contemporary design coming together.
