825 Highland Lane NE 1111 Tucked into a surprisingly quiet pocket just off Freedom Parkway, this immaculate move-in-ready 2BR/1BA places the best of Intown Atlanta within blocks-while making it remarkably easy to get anywhere in the city. Nestled above the streets, The Carlton offers the rare balance of vibrant city energy and peaceful retreat with a resort-style pool, private dog parks, secured covered parking, and a serene feel in the middle of it all. Walk blocks to the Atlanta BeltLine, Ponce City Market, Virginia-Highland shops and restaurants, and the iconic Clermont Hotel with its rooftop bar and dining. Directly across Ponce, the BeltLine, Freedom Park, and PATH trails create endless opportunities for biking, running, and exploring the city. Inside, a larger-than-most single-level floor plan lives easy and accessible, beginning with a rare true foyer that creates a warm and welcoming arrival. An open-concept layout and oversized transom windows fill the home with natural light while framing verdant treetop views accented by the glow of iconic Intown architecture and city lights. Exposed brick, a cast-stone fireplace, rich hardwoods, crown molding, and designer lighting add warmth and character throughout. The cook's kitchen sits at the center of the home between the fireside living and dining spaces, featuring crisp white cabinetry, granite counters, tumbled-stone backsplash, stainless appliances, and a gas-cooktop island primed for gathering. Both bedrooms open to a shared private balcony. The spacious primary includes a walk-in closet, while the second bedroom easily flexes as a guest room or office. An oversized bath offers double vanity, separate glass shower, and a large soaking tub, plus a separate dedicated laundry room (a real room, not a closet). Residents enjoy a secured, gated, controlled-access building with elevator access to all floors, deeded covered parking, abundant guest parking, an electric car charging station, resort-style pool, and two fenced dog parks Minutes to Midtown and I-85, this is Intown living at its best-immersed in the energy of the city, yet quietly tucked away for rest, or a night swim!
