An adaptive-reuse project where Oakhurst meets Kirkwood is approaching sellout status nearly two years after its debut, with final new condos priced at less than $200,000, according to sellers.  

Called Park 108, the condo venture by national developer Toll Brothers aimed to fill a void of for-sale multifamily product on the southwest side of Decatur by transforming a building that’s stood for nearly a century. 

Renovation work on the 33-unit building took about two years. Eric White, Toll Brothers division president in Georgia, says the two remaining Park 108 homes are both priced at $199,900. 

The Forsyth plan (one bedroom, one bathroom) counts 632 square feet on the first floor, while the Claire studio plan has 504 square feet on the second floor. The latter was discounted by nearly $15,000 last month.

Floorplans for remaining condos can be viewed here (see floors one and two), while a peek inside the one-bedroom unit is over here. 

According to listing services, the two remaining Park 108 condos qualify for the Decatur Land Trust Model, which means specific qualifications must be met. 

DLT’s model goes that homes will be sold to new owners, but the land beneath them will be kept in a trust. Should new homeowners sell in the future, the DLT’s ground-lease program is meant to ensure the properties retain their affordability permanently by capping the price at which owners can sell, DLT officials previously told Urbanize Atlanta. DLT also typically retains a long-term option to buy the homes back if owners choose to sell and move. 

Following its completion in summer 2023, the revised three-story Park 108 structure offered a range of floorplans (18 total) from 500-square-foot studios to airy two-bedroom units with ceilings climbing up to 14 feet. Some included a second story, with prices topping out around $600,000. 

In-home features include wide-plank hardwood flooring, oversized windows, and custom cabinetry. Like transit access, the condos’ character is intended to make up for the building’s lack of amenities, such as a swimming pool and balconies.

Perks of the location include MARTA’s East Lake station, situated across the street. Oakhurst Village is a few blocks in the other direction, and College Avenue’s charming strips of retail and restaurant offerings are also nearby.

The 1930s building once functioned as a Southern Bell telephone company switchboard facility; more recently, it was an AT&T training center.
