About this property

Historic Craftsman Walking Distance Best of ATL

Experience the best of in-town living in our recently renovated and expertly designed duplex located in the highly desirable Grant Park neighborhood. Highlights of our home include 10 foot ceilings throughout the home, an oversized kitchen/dining space with ultra-high-end appliances, and a private porch balcony accessed from the master bedroom. Our home is centrally located and minutes away from Grant Park, the Atlanta Beltline, Downtown, Midtown, and a 5 minute walk to MARTA.

No expense was spared when renovating and designing our 1850 sqft turn-of-the- century home. During the renovation, we were able to save and restore the 100+ year old oak floors on both levels of the home. Both bathrooms upstairs feature two sinks and the master bathroom features an incredibly spacious shower with skylight. The large and spacious windows throughout the home provide incredible natural lighting during the day. Our home also features the latest technology including a nest thermostat located on each floor, smart speakers in each room, hi-speed internet, smart tv with Netflix and HBO, 100s of classic Nintendo video games, and a gas fireplace controlled by remote. When designing the interior of the home, we consciously selected art and decor from local artists and small businesses to create a truly unique space that allows our guest to experience Atlanta through our eyes..

Guests will have private access to one-half of this historical duplex. I live in the other half of the duplex (Apartment B) with my family. This home is 100 percent private and the latest sound proofing technology was utilized when we completed our renovation.

I live in the other half of the duplex and my co-host (Michael and Kate) also live nearby and are available 24/7 if there is any issue during your stay. Michael and Kate have created an incredibly detailed neighborhood guide that features some of our favorite bars, restaurants, and entertainment that they will provide after reservation has been confirmed.

Grant Park is one of those neighborhoods that just feels like home. Located close to Downtown Atlanta, just south of Oakland Cemetery and east of Georgia State Stadium, Grant Park is characterized by Victorian-style architecture, little villages of local shops and restaurants, and the fourth-largest park in the city.

Guest who stay with us enjoy relaxing in the park, bringing their family to Zoo Atlanta (home of America’s only twin Giant Panda cubs!), and exploring the 48 acres of historic Oakland Cemetery. Along Boulevard and Cherokee avenues, you’ll discover many ways to experience the neighborhood’s local character.

Trees are a signature feature of Grant Park, and whether you’re enjoying a cup of coffee at one of our many local independent coffee shops or taking a bike ride down the street, a canopy of trees keeps your experience cool in the summer. Be sure to visit during the Grant Park Summer Shade Festival for even more quirky Atlanta fun.

As you walk, bike or drive through the neighborhood, you’ll notice that many of the homes display Grant Park signs. Residents are very proud to be part of this neighborhood and go out of their way to be friendly to guests.

Our home’s location is truly one of best qualities of our space. We are 3 blocks away from historic Oakland Cemetery. If you have never experienced a Victorian cemetery we would highly recommend a guided walking tour. Our home is also walking distance to all of the amazing bars and restaurants on Memorial Drive. Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Downtown, Midtown, and the Hartsfield-Jackson Airport are also a short and cheap Uber ride away. Grant Park, the Atlanta Zoo, the Atlanta Beltline, and may other amazing in-town neighborhoods are a short bike/scooter/Uber ride away.

Because of our home’s central location, there is no private parking but there is plenty of free parking located on the street in front of our home. No car? No problem. Our home is located walking distance from Marta and a short uber/bike/scooter ride from everything else.

This listing is for one half of a historic duplex. We live on the other side.

CLOSE PROXIMITY TO ATLANTA MARKET

Close proximity to Atlanta market which is why we were in town. Quiet neighborhood, spacious and bright accommodations. Kitchen had all the amenities for an option to cook in. Comfortable beds with bathroom on suite. Washer and dryer. Be prepared to walk steep stairwell to bedroom. Completely doable but could see where older person might find it difficult. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

My husband and I were excited to finally after 24 years get the opportunity to see Craig David perform in concert. His concert was amazing and your home was perfectly located less than 10 minutes away from so many iconic Atlanta venues.

Hands down one of the best VRBO experiences ever!! The house is perfect - beautifully decorated, tons of space, immaculately cared for + cleaned, and the easiest parking I’ve ever found in Atlanta. And the mattresses… so comfy that I messaged the property manager to find out what kind they are!!! =)! The location is ideal and the property manager is so incredibly helpful + responsive. I could not recommend this home enough and will most definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Harvey

Host profile image
I attended the University for Georgia (Go Dawgs!!!) and the University of Virginia to study Finance and Accounting. After graduating from UVA in 2011, I moved to Atlanta to work for Ernst and Young (EY) as an external auditor. After 4 years at EY, I joined the Internal Audit team at SunTrust (Truist). Shortly after moving to Atlanta, I met my wife Kate after a GA/FL game in St. Simons. Kate and I have been hosts since 2015 when we started renting out our spare bedroom. That led to us remodeling and designing basement to be rented full time. Eventually we started designing homes and vacation properties for friends and family. In 2018, we started Host this Home to pursue our passion for creating and managing amazing and unique spaces full-time. In 2021, I joined the newly formed Atlanta Metro Area Short Term Rental Association as Treasurer to help preserve Atlanta’s vibrant short term rental community through advocacy and education.
