3968 Back Trail, Clarkston, GA 30021

Just a hair outside the Perimeter, nestled on a corner lot in quiet, quintessential Clarkston, is 3968 Back Trail. A common-sense floor plan lends this 3-bed/2-bath ranch a healthy dose of utility, and a footprint of nearly 1,800 square feet leaves plenty of room to imagine and grow — all backed up by a recent remodel and enough “behind the scenes” capital improvements to keep it surprise-free for years to come.? You’re only about two blocks south of Ponce with this place (and not much farther from the Stone Mountain Fairway), so getting into the city is a cinch. Still, this is a peaceful little spot that feels worlds away, with an “it’s cool if the neighborhood kids play in the street” vibe.? Inside, a central corridor unites the common areas, the centerpiece of which is a skylit, vaulted, fireplace-punctuated living room (don’t the bookshelves just pull it all together?). The renovation really treated the kitchen kindly, too, with charming resurfaced cabinetry, a breakfast bar/island and loads of granite countertop. Three beds, technically, though one of the suites is already geared with a home office in mind, should remote work be a long-term lifestyle. A two-car garage, epic storage space, and a bonus sitting nook round everything out enough for 3968 to fall solidly into the “elevated starter home” bracket. (And, at a price point that makes it, in our opinion, a darned good choice as an investment.) Speaking of playing outside… The backyard is privacy fenced, and is positively huge; if your family has fur, they’ll be thrilled while staying safe.
