Atlanta | $750,000

A Victorian house built around 1887, with four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, on a 0.3-acre lot

This home is in West End, a neighborhood on the National Register of Historic Places, within a mile of Spelman College, Morehouse College, Morehouse School of Medicine and Clark Atlanta University, a group of H.B.C.U.s that form the Atlanta University Center Consortium. It is a few blocks from the Hammonds House Museum, an organization dedicated to African-American fine art that is housed in one of the neighborhood’s oldest Victorian houses. Also within walking distance are a handful of vegan and vegetarian cafes, a Big Bear Foods supermarket and a shopping mall. Downtown Atlanta is about 10 minutes away by car or 20 minutes by public transportation.

Size: 3,040 square feet

Price per square foot: $247

Indoors: An iron fence with brick posts separates the yard from the sidewalk; the front door is set in the middle of a covered porch.

The foyer has original heart-pine floors and 12-foot ceilings. To the right is a bright living room with a fireplace that has an original wood mantel. This room connects to a sunroom and to a formal dining room with midnight-blue walls and a fireplace with a marble surround.

Arched doors lead from the dining room to the kitchen, which is dominated by an ornate arched window salvaged from a church. The floor has an eye-catching pattern of cherry inlay and the counters, including those on the center island, are quartz.
