NORTHWOODS Mid-Century Modest Home - $299k

OPEN HOUSE Saturday, June 22 2 – 4 pm

3429 Raymond Drive, Atlanta, GA 30340 | $299,000

One Saturday afternoon, a lively young couple set off on their weekend adventure to explore the diverse multi-cultural restaurants on Buford Highway. They had a tradition of trying out new cuisines every week. That day, they stopped by a Vietnamese café, eagerly diving into steaming bowls of pho and crispy banh mi.

With their bellies full and hearts happy, they started scrolling through their Zillow feed, when what should pop up but an Open House just a short drive away! “Oh Darling!” the husband exclaimed with excitement. “Let’s go take a quick look at this precious mid-century modest brick bungalow! I’ve always wanted to live in Northwoods, and look at this price!? He pulled up the mortgage calculator, crunched some numbers and exclaimed: “We would be paying less in rent and actually building equity if we lived at 3426 Raymond Dr, instead of our sad cramped apartment!?”

They thanked their server, hopped into their car, and headed towards Northwoods. When they arrived at the open house, they saw a line out the door. Apparently, all of Atlanta had been scrolling through Zillow that afternoon. Nevertheless, they made their way to the front porch and pushed past the red front door. And then it happened – time stood still. Everything felt as if it were in slow motion and the people disappeared. It was just the two of them, standing motionless as they took in every detail.

The polished floors, the crisp white walls, everything felt fresh, even the sea foam original bathroom was pure magic. The house wasn’t big, it wasn’t boastful. It was elegant and harmonious. It was just right. They looked at each other and smiled. This was what it felt like to be home. The rest is history.

Years have passed, and the couple has grown older. They moved into the home, and their lives kept getting better as the days went by. They still go for long walks in the evening. They are a little slower now but they still holds hands as they walk slowly through the neighborhood, smiling and talking about what a wonderful life they have lived. Gratitude fills their hearts, and beauty surrounds them. Younger couples sitting on their front porch think to themselves, “I hope we’re that happy when we’re their age.”

Every Saturday, you can still see them sipping their Boba at Sweet Hut Bakery & Cafe while they savor their Mango Mouse Cake, reminiscing about their lifetime of adventures. Their neighbors know them as the sweet, older couple who live on Raymond Cir. in the cute, brick bungalow. Could this be your love story? Could this be your happily ever after? I think so…
