1511 Mclendon Ave Ne · Apartment for Rent

Property Status: Active Set directly across from Candler Park, this is not your typical rental. Fully taken down to the studs and expanded with a second story, this owner-designed dream home was built as a personal residence, offering a level of finish, layout, and intention rarely found. Everything is new except the original brick exterior, fireplace, and butler's pantry, preserving its charm while delivering a truly exceptional experience. A welcoming full front porch opens to light-filled interiors. The living room features direct views of the park, while a front flex space with built-ins and a bay window offers the perfect office or sitting room. A large dining room, original butler's pantry and dining nook, and nearby powder room create ideal spaces for everyday living and entertaining. The brand-new kitchen is a standout, featuring beautiful custom cabinetry, a full suite of Thermador appliances including a Freedom induction cooktop, wall ovens, column refrigerator and freezer, workstation sink, and dishwasher. A pantry/mudroom provides easy access from the back porch and carport and is plumbed for a secondary refrigerator. The laundry area is equally well-appointed with a Miele washer and dryer included and a utility sink. Flexible living continues with a main-level suite offering a walk-in closet with additional storage and a spacious bath. Upstairs, the primary suite includes an ensuite bath, dual closets, hidden storage, and peaceful garden views. Additional bedrooms feature bay windows, abundant light, and generous closet space, while the upstairs landing offers room for a play area, office, or library. An additional front flex room overlooks the park and can function as a fourth bedroom, office, or recreation space. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with a back deck, fenced yard (front & back to be completed late May), and ample space for gardening, play, or entertaining. The property includes a carport wired for an electric vehicle charger with secured bicycle storage, as well as a garden shed with tools and additional storage. Established plantings, including a productive blueberry bush, fruit trees, and space for herbs and flowers, create a natural setting ideal for gardening, play, and birdwatching. The location is exceptional, directly across the street from Candler Park, steps to neighborhood favorite restaurants, just three blocks to Candler Park Market and MARTA, with easy access to the BeltLine. Convenient to Mary Lin Elementary, Paideia, and Atlanta International Montessori, and just minutes to Emory, CDC, Agnes Scott, and Midtown/downtown. A rare opportunity to enjoy a thoughtfully designed, high end renovated home in one of Atlanta's most beloved neighborhoods.
