About This Home
As of May 2024Nestled on a picturesque tree-lined street just a stone’s throw from Dracena Park is this updated 3+ bedroom Traditional with a Mediterranean flair. Newly refinished hardwood floors, abundant natural light, period casework and grand living spaces are just a prelude to the exquisite and expansive rear grounds seamlessly accessed from both levels of the property. Leave the car at home as the excellent public schools and Piedmont services as well as the chic cafes and shopping on Piedmont Avenue are close by. The sun-drenched living room has a high ceiling and a stately fireplace, flanked by custom cabinetry. The dining room awaits for large memorable gatherings with friends and family. Adjacent you’ll find a chef’s eat-in kitchen and sunny breakfast room, featuring glass front cabinetry and stainless appliances including a four-burner gas range with custom copper hood. Open the double French doors to a large rear deck, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. Head out from the spacious family room and escape to your private oasis in the backyard, where flagstone patios intertwine with lush gardens and a custom water feature create a tranquil retreat. Explore raised planting beds, a fenced blueberry patch, and ample space for outdoor activities and urban farming.
