3239 ROCKVIEW Drive Lithonia GA 30038 MLS #6963145

The previous buyer got cold feet. Their loss is your gain because tracking down a move-in ready single-family home in the Atlanta metro for less than $250K these days is a little like tracking down a good bottle of wine for less than $12: it hardly ever happens, but when it does, it’s special, and you tend to stick with it for a while. Over in Stonecrest, 3239 Rockview Drive boasts a number of perks that make it worth a close look for a growing household that’s ready to elevate out of the long-term rental lifestyle: an easygoing, traditional neighborhood that’s still only about a mile’s drive from the I-20 East Expressway; flexible, split-level construction that (at about 1,800-square-feet) doesn’t skimp on the all-important “room to spread out” factor; and long-term fixtures like roof, HVAC, and low-maintenance modern vinyl that still have plenty of life left in them. In short, totally turnkey.

Multiply the common area by two: there’s a traditional living room just off the quintessentially cozy front porch, while deeper inside, a fireplace-equipped family area is destined to be the locale for movie night. Same goes for the twin dining areas that flank an open-plan, two-cook kitchen with stainless appliances, and loads of cabinet space. (And speaking of multiples of two? Two-car garage!) Upstairs, a trio of bedrooms are accompanied by two full baths and a sum of closet space that rounds out as certainly more than enough. Out back meanwhile, the ample, old-growth yard is a blank slate, ready for whatever inspiration the new owner has to impart: just add a privacy fence for dog-owners; or, throw up a trellis’d patio for sunset cookouts over the Big Green Egg. (Just make sure to bring a bottle or two of that vino). Hurry, will not last.
