If you’ve been waiting for the Old Fourth Ward home—the one with walk-everywhere access, unforgettable outdoor spaces, and smart income potential—this is it. Set on coveted East Ave, the residence sits steps from the Eastside BeltLine, Historic Fourth Ward Park and Skatepark, the new neighborhood social/fitness club, award-winning dining, Ponce City Market, and Krog Street Market; a short scooter or bike ride reaches Centennial Olympic Park, Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and State Farm Arena. A gated, south-facing flagstone garden greets you with koi gliding beneath Japanese maples and the sound of water softening the city. The broad front porch is a neighborhood magnet—porch-side conversations, friendships that take root, and O4W’s legendary Halloween street party right out front. Inside, a carved front door with dogwood-emblemed stained glass (in the Old Fourth Ward style) opens to 10’ ceilings, rich wainscoting and crown, red and white oak floors, and arched transitions that set a refined tone. A fireside sitting room welcomes conversation; a formal dining room hosts milestone dinners. The butler’s pantry leads to a chef’s kitchen with Sub-Zero, double Thermador ovens plus warming drawer, Thermador range, leathered quartzite, and Rev-A-Shelf storage. The breakfast bar and banquette open to a gracious living room with gas fireplace and an all-season screened porch with natural-gas hookup—ideal for al-fresco meals or crisp morning air. Upstairs, the fireside primary suite offers generous closets and a spa-caliber bath with travertine, a jetted soaking tub, dual vanities, a separate glass-enclosed shower, and a private water closet. Two additional bedrooms enjoy en-suite baths; a fourth large bedroom connects via Jack-and-Jill to a smaller bedroom/office. All five bedrooms feature large walk-in closets and direct bathroom access. A top-floor bonus with half bath flexes as studio, play space, or office. On the terrace level, a custom wine cellar—vintage French riddling racks and EuroCave—sets the stage for tastings before movie nights in the theater. A serene bath, a multi-purpose transition room, and clever storage (including a hidden room) make the level as practical as it is indulgent. The attached three-car garage (epoxy floor, Flow-Wall storage) opens directly into the home for true lock-and-leave convenience. Out back, the property lives like a private club: TimberTech/Azek composite decks, an under-deck kitchenette and lounge, low-maintenance turf, landscape lighting, and an oversized Swim Spa with powerful swim jets and spa seating. Backyard BBQs, game-day gatherings, twilight dinners—this is where memories multiply. A major advantage is the private-entry, updated one-bedroom apartment—ideal for offsetting costs, guest independence, or a quiet studio. It includes a full kitchen, laundry, fireplace, a large balcony over the backyard, and a dedicated garage space off the gated drive. Documented rental history (most recently ~$1,800/month; records available); recently renovated for a long-term family stay. Quality and care are evident throughout in meticulous maintenance and major updates: two new HVAC systems (2021), two new water heaters (2021), a 2016 architectural roof, and a 2022 multi-level composite deck system. Life here is about enjoyment and venturing out, not punch lists. Beloved by its neighbors, this premier spot on East Ave is the place to be—where front-porch hellos become long conversations, where holidays spill from the dining room to the outdoor living rooms, and where daily life feels special. With income generation, true walkability, resort-style outdoor living, and a traditional plan refined for modern comfort, 574 East Ave NE is a home to thrive in, feel alive in, and be genuinely at home.
