662 Rosalia St SE

Atlanta, GA 30312

Welcome to 662 Rosalia, a beautifully re-imagined Victorian bungalow situated on one of the most beloved blocks in the heart of Atlanta's historic Grant Park district. As soon as you arrive, you'll be transported to a tropical oasis by the four towering windmill palms that welcome you to the property. Standing tall against the backdrop of the house's luxurious black exterior, these cold-hardy palms have been welcoming friends and guests for the past 18 years since they were first planted by the homeowners. As you step onto the front porch, the original diamond-patterned, 12-over-1 divided light windows, palladium transom, and tongue-and-groove porch floors catch your eye. But the real magic begins as you open the front door to a spacious living room with a grand central hallway, separating the living spaces from the downstairs bedrooms. The wide-plank solid hardwoods float beneath your feet as you explore the room. You'll also notice the original fireplaces with historic mantels and their original majolica tile in the living room and dining room. Don't miss the dining room's original stained glass buffet transom window. The primary bedroom boasts a luxurious atmosphere with recently installed wrap-around wallpaper, designer lighting, and custom drapery reminiscent of a South Beach resort. The recently renovated primary bathroom exudes sleek and sophisticated vibes and leads into a custom walk-in closet with ample storage space. On the main floor, a guest suite with similar features and a guest bathroom with convenient washer-dryer hookups await. A back door leads to the lush backyard area and a detached office space. As you ascend the stairs, you'll be greeted by a sprawling media/family area. At the end of the hallway, the accordioned French doors open up to a tranquil screened porch overlooking the lush backyard and even offering a glimpse of the downtown skyline in winter. Upstairs, you'll find two sizable secondary bedrooms, a hallway bathroom with dual vanity perfect for the kids, a convenient office space, and an oversized laundry room. The backyard is the epitome of a tropical oasis, complete with a patio kitchenette featuring a raised fire pit and stainless steel grill. The soothing sounds of waterfalls and streams flowing under boardwalk bridges add to the ambiance, while a crystal clear koi pond provides a peaceful spot for relaxation. An offset detached 1-car garage, transformed into an office space resembling a rainforest treehouse, is positioned at an angle from an open alley. The abundant variety of semi-tropical plants and palm trees contribute to the feeling of being transported to a luxurious Costa Rican retreat.
