There is perhaps no other neighborhood buzzing with popularity right now like Atlanta’s historic Old Fourth Ward or “O4W,” as it is often referred to. Located just east of downtown and minutes from the Eastside BeltLine, this vibrant part of the city is rich in history and culture, offering residents a wide variety of things to do. From some of the best shopping, restaurants and bars to lush urban parks and greenspaces, it delivers all the conveniences of Intown living wrapped in a hip, urban vibe.
581 Rankin Street is a completely renovated bungalow situated in the heart of O4W. Perched on a slight rise, its freshly painted exterior and white picket fence add to the home’s curb appeal. The charming covered front porch offers the perfect vantage point to greet neighbors passing by or take in views of the city skyline rising up in the distance. Complete with a porch swing, this property captivates from the moment you arrive.
Enter inside to discover an oversized foyer that reveals a harmonious blend of natural design elements and neutral finishes. Boasting high ceilings and original hardwood floors throughout, this residence has been meticulously updated from top-to-bottom, resulting in an interior that feels light, bright and beachy yet timeless and sophisticated. In addition to providing an inviting entrance to the home, the foyer also serves as the central connection point between the main living areas, creating an easy flow between the spaces.
To the left of the foyer is the formal living room. Featuring three large windows and an original decorative fireplace, this comfortable space is loaded with character and makes the ideal spot to entertain guests or relax and unwind while watching your favorite TV show. Doorways flanking the fireplace lead to the formal dining room, creating an open, spacious feel. Also boasting a decorative fireplace, the dining room provides the perfect backdrop for everything from casual meals and formal dinners to dinner parties and holiday get-togethers.
The brand-new kitchen sits on the other side of the dining room, making it easy to go from cooktop to tabletop. An opening between the spaces creates direct sightlines and makes entertaining a breeze. White shiplap walls and white cabinetry contrast beautifully with the wood floors, open shelving, granite countertops and new stainless steel appliances – including a state-of-the-art Wolf range. And with plenty of storage and prep space, it offers everything you need to prepare and serve your favorite dishes in style.
Also on the main level are two bedrooms and two fully renovated bathrooms. The gorgeous owner’s retreat sits behind double doors off the foyer and features a spa-like en suite bath with a large soaking tub and an oversized stand-alone glass shower. The second bedroom is situated at the back of the house. With access to a second fully renovated bathroom, it makes for an excellent guest room, home office or workout room. There is also laundry space conveniently located just around the corner from both bedrooms.
Under the home you will find a separate large storage room and a partial basement that leads to the home’s crawl space. This is perfect for storing holiday decorations, lawn furniture, yard tools and more. And speaking of yards, the back porch leads to a fantastic newly landscaped backyard with a privacy fence, low-maintenance artificial turf and a large fire pit with plenty of seating – ideal for entertaining outside under the stars.
