Property Description

In the ever-expanding Metro, finding a home that delivers genuine value without compromising on quality or location is increasingly rare. Yet here's 5035 Fairforest Drive, a freshly updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath split-level in Stone Mountain that proves you don't need to stretch your budget to secure a solid investment in a desirable neighborhood. This is the kind of home that makes sense for buyers who've done their homework. The numbers work. The location delivers. And the recent cosmetic refresh means you can move in without immediately facing a renovation project, while the friendly price leaves room for your own upgrades down the line. Tucked on a quiet, tree-lined street where neighbors still wave and kids ride bikes, 5035 sits on a generously wooded lot that feels more private than you'd expect at this price point. The crisp white siding, accented by burgundy trim and natural stone foundation, presents well from the curb. Step through the front door and the split-level layout reveals its charm immediately. To your left, stairs lead up to the bedroom wing. To your right, they descend to the family room and garage. Straight ahead, the main level unfolds into a generous living room with soaring vaulted ceilings and that dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that anchors the entire space. Fresh neutral carpeting throughout provides a clean slate. The flow here is what sets this home apart. The living room opens naturally into the dining area, which connects seamlessly to the kitchen, creating that coveted open concept feel without sacrificing distinct spaces. The kitchen holds its own with freshly painted white cabinetry, clean laminate countertops, and black appliances including a gas range. Glass-front upper cabinets add character, while the practical layout makes meal prep straightforward. From the dining area, French doors open to a private deck, extending your entertaining space outdoors when the weather cooperates. Upstairs, the bedroom level feels deliberately separated from the main living areas, ideal for maintaining quiet when someone's still up or working from home. The primary bedroom claims the back corner, offering space and privacy along with an ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms share a central hall bath, with one perfectly positioned to serve as a home office. Ample closet space throughout keeps things organized. Down a half flight from the entry, the lower level offers genuine flexibility. The family room sits adjacent to a utility area and opens directly to the backyard through French doors, making it easy to supervise kids playing outside. This space works however you need it: casual living area, home gym, teen retreat, craft room. The oversized one-car garage provides covered parking and bonus storage. Now, the outside, and this is where 5035 truly distinguishes itself. The wooded lot creates privacy and character that newer developments simply can't replicate. Mature trees provide natural screening, the gently sloping backyard feels secluded, and the established landscaping means you're not starting from scratch. For dog owners or those who value outdoor space, this setup delivers well above its price point. The location merits attention. Less than five miles to the I-285 Perimeter means commutes stay manageable. Redan Road's shopping and services sit minutes away, while Stone Mountain Park's trails and recreational amenities are practically around the corner. You're positioned in an established neighborhood where property values have shown steady appreciation. We see 5035 Fairforest Drive ending up with a buyer who's solidly thinking about the future. A flexible space that's easy to grow into, priced to leave room for adding your own finishing touches, and with the increasing popularity of properties in this region of the OTP, not a bad investment either. This is the kind of opportunity that rewards buyers who move decisively. Priced strategically at $219,900 to attract immediate attention.
