With just a little TLC, this 117-year-old two-bedroom, two-bath Victorian in Inman Park could be truly stunning. Situated on a tree-lined street of original craftsman-style homes just a quick stroll from the Beltline, Krog Street Market and associated amenities, the 2,108-square-foot home has a roomy fenced-in yard, off-street parking and a rocking chair porch. Decorative stained-glass windows add color and light to several rooms, and the house also has heart pine floors, three brick fireplaces and a bonus room/office. The listing indicates that the kitchen and bathrooms have been renovated (you'll really want to watch your head in that upstairs bathroom), though they could probably use just a touch more work to truly impress the pickiest buyer. It last sold for $120,000 in 1994, but that was a different world. Today, it asks $449,900 and it's fairly safe to say that a home this size for less than $500,000 in this area will be snatched up in a jiffy, flaws and all.
