Price: $209,500

Bedrooms: 1
Bathrooms: 1
Neighborhood: Decatur
Nearest MARTA rail station: Decatur
Summary: Penthouse views loom large in this Decatur condo.
Within walking distance of downtown Decatur, this condo is, indeed, on the top floor, but calling it the “penthouse” could be a misnomer. The views from the living room and bedroom are spectacular, but the remainder of the space is not extraordinary. Building facilities include a swimming pool, patio, and fitness center.

Price: $229,900
Built: Circa-1920s
Square footage: 1,794
Bedrooms: 2
Bathrooms: 2
Neighborhood: West End
Nearest MARTA rail station: West End
Summary: Victorian charm inside offsets rather routine exterior.
Recent renovations bring a modern touch to the original details found throughout this West End residence. Highlights include original hardwood flooring, three fireplaces, and a wide front porch. However, there is definite room for more improvements, both inside and out. The good news: An asking price like this could allow for it.

...
Price: $249,900
Built: 1930
Square footage: 2,049
Bedrooms: 3
Bathrooms: 2
Neighborhood: College Park
Nearest MARTA rail station: College Park
Summary: Quaint bungalow conceals a split personality.
From a review of the photos, the main floor seems rather traditional with its cottage-size rooms, fireplace, and stained-glass windows. The finished daylight basement, though, appears as if it were hastily converted into an apartment for a college kid. However, the covered front porch and back deck are pleasant outdoor spaces.
