About This Home
As of August 2025A Storybook Cottage in the Heart of Historic Druid Hills
Nestled on one of Druid Hills' most beloved and secluded streets, this charming cottage feels like a hidden gem.
This home welcomes you with a spacious, sunlit living room featuring a cozy gas fireplace and built-in bookcases. Throughout the house, original hardwood floors add warmth and character, offering a timeless and comfortable atmosphere.
The formal dining room sets the stage for countless dinner parties and family gatherings, flowing effortlessly into a kitchen with Corian countertops, cherry cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a gas-powered range with a microwave. The ground floor of the home even includes two cozy bedrooms that share a full bath, creating the perfect space for guests, an extra bedroom, or a home office.
Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom contains an ensuite bath and an expansive walk-in closet. This floor features two additional bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and a laundry room, offering a balance between private and shared living spaces.
This cottage features a garage and an unfinished basement, providing ample storage space. Additional home features include a recently upgraded, zoned HVAC system and Nest thermostat for each floor, a tankless water heater, and an ADT security system, ensuring comfort and peace of mind.
Through the dining room doors, there is an elevated balcony that serves as a private treehouse and the perfect outdoor haven whether you're curled up on the swing bed with a book, dining under the stars, or hosting friends for cocktails. This balcony overlooks the backyard, featuring an award-winning camellia grove that blooms beside stone walking paths and a canopy of old-growth trees, providing shade and privacy. Below the balcony lies a patio space and a fenced backyard that includes a charming swing set and a seating area perfect for chairs and a fire pit.
The home's location is within walking distance of Princeton Way Park, which offers a playground, additional walking trails, and a picnic area for barbequing. Emory University, Emory Village, the CDC, Druid Hills High School, and the trails of Lullwater Park are only a few blocks away. Near Downtown Decatur, Virginia-Highland, and the Atlanta Beltline, this home offers the city's community, charm, and convenience.
