Classic Candler Park Craftsman on a Sunlit Corner lot. Perched on a sunny corner lot along a wide street in the vibrant community of Candler Park, this timeless 4-bedroom, 3-bath Candler Park Craftsman offers the ideal blend of historic character, thoughtful updates, and a prime location. Set back from the street and surrounded by lush landscaping—lovingly designed so there’s always something in bloom. The expansive front porch welcomes you into a home filled with warmth and natural light, thanks to its corner exposure and generous windows throughout. Inside, you’ll find high ceilings, original hardwood floors, and a wood-burning fireplace flanked by custom built-ins in the inviting living room. The dining room is truly grand, with a full wall of windows and the scale to host everything from casual meals to formal gatherings. The kitchen offers crisp white cabinetry, casual dining area, and easy flow into the incredible screened-in porch that spans the full width of the home. With vaulted ceilings and western-facing views over the beautifully landscaped backyard, this is the perfect place to unwind with a front-row seat to spectacular sunsets. The main-level primary suite opens directly to the back porch and includes a private ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms on the main share a renovated classically styled hall bath, and a front bonus room with its own French doors is ideal as an office, den, or creative retreat. Thoughtful architectural details, generously scaled rooms, and large closets elevate the comfort and functionality of the home. The finished daylight basement adds valuable flexibility with a large rec room, guest bedroom, full bath, oversized laundry room with sink, and a second screened porch that also enjoys beautiful backyard views—making this level perfect for an in-law or teen suite, studio, or rental opportunity. The level, fully fenced backyard includes a parking pad with access off Marlbrook Drive, plus plenty of room to garden, play, and enjoy outdoor living. Marlbrook leads directly to the back entrance of Candler Park, giving you easy access to trails, green space, playground, pool, and public golf course. Located just blocks from Candler Park’s shops and restaurants, Beloved Mary Lin Elementary, and multiple parks, this home offers the best of in-town living—with room to grow, gather, and enjoy the beauty of every day.
