About 1485 N Morningside Drive Ne
Quarter-Acre Craftsman Bungalow with Character, Space & Endless Possibility
Nestled on one of Morningside’s most beloved tree-lined streets, this classic 1928 red-brick Craftsman bungalow sits on a rare quarter-acre lot with a deep backyard and gentle slope—offering charm, flexibility, and future potential for both end-users and builders.
From the welcoming front stoop and original architectural details to the spacious footprint and mature landscaping, this home is filled with timeless character. Inside, you'll find a formal living room with a beautifully mantled fireplace as the centerpiece of the room, a bright sunroom perfect for a home office or reading nook, and a versatile sitting room that can function as a third bedroom or secondary workspace. A formal dining room connects to a functional kitchen with stainless steel gas range and microwave, and a dedicated laundry room.
At the rear of the home, a large family room with oversized windows overlooks the backyard, bringing in tons of natural light. A spiral staircase leads up to a finished loft and attic storage space, adding even more versatility. The primary suite, tucked at the back of the home, features multiple closets and a private bath with dual vanities, an original claw-foot soaking tub, and a separate shower. Off the family room is a deck with stairs that lead down to the deep backyard, where you'll find a small lawn-equipment carport and a shed for additional storage.
A wide front yard and a deep, gently sloped backyard make this property perfect for those looking to enjoy it as-is, renovate, or build new. The lot size and layout offer incredible flexibility—making it an ideal candidate for thoughtful expansion or a ground-up custom build in one of Atlanta’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
Just steps from the dining at Morningside Village, Alon’s Bakery, Orme Park, and minutes from Virginia Highland and the BeltLine, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of intown Atlanta with both historic charm and development upside.
