About This Home

Originally built as a Girl Scout gathering hut and thoughtfully transformed into a one-of-a-kind cottage, this enchanting home offers a serene retreat just steps from nature. Follow the flagstone walkway to your own private oasis, surrounded by lush greenery, a babbling brook, and tranquil views of Rutledge Park—you’ll feel worlds away while still being just minutes from Emory University, shopping, dining, and more. Inside, a vaulted ceiling in the family/dining room creates an open, airy ambiance perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The renovated kitchen (updated within the last 15 years) features ample cabinetry, granite countertops, and a convenient breakfast bar. The bathroom offers a separate tub and shower for added comfort. Hardwood floors run throughout the entire home, including the spacious primary bedroom, which also boasts a walk-in closet. A large deck extends your living space outdoors, overlooking the peaceful, wooded backyard.
Truly unlike any other home in the neighborhood, this cottage blends character, charm, and natural beauty—an ideal escape in a stunning setting.
