About This Home
Perched majestically on its hill, this stunning custom-designed two-story Craftsman showcases exceptional attention to detail from top to bottom. Every element has been thoughtfully curated-from the extensive custom cabinetry and built-ins to the lush, professionally landscaped gardens. The heart of the home is the breathtaking open-concept kitchen and living area, featuring an oversized island with granite countertops, farmhouse sink, and wraparound custom cabinetry. High-end Thermador gas cooktop and stainless-steel appliances make this a true chef's kitchen. A butler's pantry connects to the dining room, and a spacious walk-in pantry with floor-to-ceiling shelving offers exceptional storage. The living room features built-in bookcases, a cozy dining nook, and a beautiful custom fireplace-perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Step outside to the screened-in back porch, where high ceilings, painted wood floors, and a grand stacked-stone fireplace create a year-round retreat. The luxurious main-level primary suite includes space for a sitting area and a wall of windows overlooking a private patio. The spa-inspired bathroom offers dual vanities, custom cabinetry, and an all-glass luxury shower. A massive his-and-hers walk-in closet includes built-in storage and a "secret" door to the laundry room. A full guest bath and separate laundry area complete the main floor. Upstairs, discover a second primary suite with en suite bath, plus two additional bedrooms sharing a Jack-and-Jill bath with double vanities. A delightful bonus room features a built-in bed with drawers-perfect for a playroom or guest space. Don't miss the floored attic for extra storage. Out back, the detached two-car garage includes a workbench, shelving, three Tesla electric car chargers and a back up power source. Above it, a fully equipped apartment offers a kitchenette with microwave and fridge, full bath, and open living/sleeping area-ideal for guests, in-laws, college students, or rental income. Enjoy the private fenced backyard with patio, swing set, and 8-ft privacy fence with wrought-iron gate. Additional highlights include hardwood floors, plantation shutters, and ceiling fans throughout. Located close to Kensington MARTA, I-285, Decatur, CDC, and Emory, this exceptional home combines luxury, comfort, and convenience in one perfect package.
