s fter a lifetime of great memories, we are parting with our family’s 75-year-old, 6-bedroom, 3-bath home. And we’re selling it ourselves. Someone is going to seize this opportunity to Remodel or Rebuild and transform this solid brick-home and spacious-property into their own private-haven! Why not you?
Imagine...
“A good life is a collection of happy moments.” - Denis Waitley
If
you lived here, you could enjoy Outdoor Family-Events and host long-summer-evening Lawn-Parties in this Spacious Backyard. Enjoy winning a game of badminton, volleyball, basketball, croquet, or shuffleboard. What if you added your own pool and sauna (or put in your own, private Pickleball Court?)
7 Decades, this spacious, F orwell-played-in backyard has generated tons of laughter ( and, yes, maybe a few squabbles )
among Kids, Grandkids, and Great-Grandkids – not to mention the neighborhood kids – all doing what kids do best... Having FUN ! And, in all those years, we probably went through less than a single box of Band-Aids.®
This backyard is like having a fenced-in neighborhood-park right outside your backdoor.
“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” - George Bernard Shaw little winded from all that winning A (It’s exhausting, isn’t it?) Take a break. Grab a cool-glass of lemonade and catch-your-breath as you watch the activities from a seat on the Stone-Patio, just outside the backdoor. While you’re relaxing, you could launch your drone to capture some exciting, overhead action-shots out on the playing fields or shuffleboard court. Sit and enjoy your role as the ‘Virtual Umpire’ who settles disputes.
The sunny backyard is ideal for putting in a garden.
the entire backyard is Fenced-In with a Chain-Link Fence B –ecause with two gates – you can relax, knowing the kids are safe. Plus, the neighbor’s Wooden-Fence on one-side and the Wooded-Area on the other provide plenty of PRIVACY. And, when it’s just too miserably cold or rainy outside to take the dogs for their walk around the Circle, you can turn them loose in the fenced-backyard to chase squirrels.

ecause the garage is at the back of the house, within the fenced-in backyard, your coming-and-going is more secure. And, since it’s not visible from the street, it’s less apparent whether anyone is home which provides additional privacy, security, and peace of mind.
The Turn-Around Area helps you manage the traffic-flow.

here’s a fourth garage in the basement which is warm in the winter. And, there’s plenty of outdoor-parking for family and guests – at least three vehicles can park on the Paved Shuffleboard-Court. And, for visitors, there’s a Gravel Parking Area at the front of the house.
For Over a Century, Our Family Has Been a Part of Buckhead.
In 1921
our grandfather, George Murray, opened Buckhead Hardware – one of the first businesses in the area. He was later immortalized as “Mr. Hamby” in the poem ‘Looking for the Buckhead Boys’ by Poet Laureate of the United States, James Dickey. In 1945, our father Tom Murray – one of the Buckhead Boys – designed and built this house. It was the first house in Atlanta to be built with power hand-tools. Later, he took over ownership of Buckhead Hardware. Because hardware stores are at the center of a community, we got to know – and become friends with – many of the people who built Buckhead.
During Severe-Weather Warnings and Blackouts... “Shelter in Place” in Comfort and Style ! hen the weather turns bad, ignore Atlanta’s frequent W Power-Outages. (You may not even notice them.) Your Whole-House Electrical-Generator is powered by natural gas. Often, you won’t even know there’s WEATHER WARNING been a blackout. You do nothing at all. The automatic transfer-switch instantly provides back-up power to the house. Then, when electricity is restored, it shuts-off. It’s very-comforting just knowing it ’s there – especially with Atlanta’s winter ice-storms, violent thunderstorms, and power-outages. SEVERE

his 2,898-square-foot brick-home sits on a partially-wooded lot that is approximately 34,672 square-feet.
NOTE: If you can obtain approval from The Zoning Commission, there may be the possibility of buying and annexing a small portion of one or two adjoining-properties to increase the lot-size to 36,000 square-feet to make it large-enough to build two houses. But, of course, just one thoughtfully-designed house placed on a comfortable and sizeable property might be the more luxurious option.
Annexing property from the backs of adjoining lots may open-up the property to more possibilities.
