2704 Alston Drive SE

Overlooking the 1st fairway of East Lake Golf Club, this special residence delivers a front-row view of one of Atlanta’s most iconic settings—its sweet, demure exterior gives way to surprisingly expansive interiors with large rooms, tall ceilings, and space to truly roam. Set on a rare double lot at the doorstep of East Lake Park, this home pairs historic character with thoughtful modern updates. Originally constructed in 1912 and reimagined in recent years, preserving its architectural integrity while enhancing livability for today’s lifestyle (as in ALL of the closets are walk-in. ) The modern kitchen, outfitted with new appliances, opens to the family room all adjacent to the extra large, covered deck. Designed with flexibility in mind, the main-level bedroom opens to a grand sunroom—ideal as a guest suite, office, or additional living space. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with a large sitting room overlooking the greens—an extraordinary vantage point, especially as the fairways illuminate at dusk for a view few ever get to enjoy. The expansive lot offers exceptional opportunity—plenty of space for a 3–4 car garage, an ADU, and still room to enjoy fruit trees, gardening, and outdoor activities. The unfinished basement adds even more potential, with architectural plans already in place for a full apartment—ideal for future expansion, income potential, or multigenerational living. Perfectly positioned at the crossroads of East Lake, Oakhurst, and Kirkwood, you’re just around the corner from the beloved “2nd & Hosea” district—home to Poor Hendrix, La Fonda Latina, Gene's BBQ, and Perc Coffee. Daily conveniences are minutes away with Publix, Lidl, Planet Fitness, the East Lake YMCA, and the park right at the corner—bringing together walkability, energy, and ease. A timeless property in an unbeatable setting, this is a home where history, landscape, and lifestyle come together in a way that is distinctly East Lake.
