Flipping a house next to a major hwy Atlanta, GA

Has anyone had experience flipping a house like the one pictured here that backs up to a highway? If you are familiar with this are of Atlanta and 285 this is a busy road. The house itself may work out. I'm concerned on the affect this will have on the ARV. Right outside the house it is LOUD, inside I don't think will be an issue once some windows get replaced.

    @Robert E Bogino I flipped a house that had train tracks in the back. In my case, the area was in demand so I received about $25K less for the house than the ones across the street (10%). I factored that in before I bought it so it was not the end of the world. In my experience, people do not like noisy areas.
