Home Details for 475 Grant SE Street

This Victorian home was built in 1901 and sits proudly on Grant Street, right in the heart of Grant Park. The records preserved by the Atlanta History Center confirm its early provenance, and the details throughout the home confirm its place as one of the neighborhood's architectural treasures. Wide front porches, high ceilings, hardwood floors, and four fireplaces with ornate majolica tile surrounds set the stage. Even more rare are the original coved ceilings, sometimes called Pullman ceilings, thought to be inspired by the home's first owner, who worked for the Atlanta Rail Car Company. To this day, it is the only known home in the neighborhood with this extraordinary architectural feature. The home has even been showcased on the Grant Park Candlelight Tour of Homes and the Grant Park Candlelight Christmas Tour of Homes, a fitting recognition of its historic character and architectural significance. Inside, the floorplan balances history with livability. A gracious central hallway anchors the home, while the kitchen brings a thoughtful blend of modern design and classic sensibilities. The rooms feel substantial, airy, and timeless, with details that remind you of a different era while still welcoming everyday living. The backyard is a sanctuary that has also been celebrated on the neighborhood's annual Garden Tour. Mature landscaping creates a private retreat, complete with koi ponds, waterfalls, and a series of outdoor sitting areas, including one with a firepit that invites lingering conversations. At the rear of the property, the Carriage House currently serves as motorcycle storage, though it could easily be adapted into a workshop, studio, or yoga space. Behind it, you will find off-street parking accessed from the alley. The property has even accommodated an Airstream here in the past, with the setup lending itself naturally to Airbnb rental possibilities. Life in Grant Park is about more than just the home. From here you can walk to the BeltLine, Zoo Atlanta, neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops, and the weekly farmer's market. Grant Park itself, with its shaded paths and historic landmarks, is only steps away. There is a strong sense of community here, one that is woven together by porches, gardens, and neighbors who look out for each other. This home is a rare chance to own not just a piece of real estate, but a piece of Grant Park history. It has been cared for, showcased, and celebrated, and now it is ready for its next chapter.
