1920's Built Stunning Spanish Colonial of which there are very few in Atlanta. These current owners were told that this home was built by the builder for himself along with a few others around the neighborhood. Imagine a gated exterior foyer leading to a covered porch or then through the Spanish inspired oak front door with speakeasy window and grill. This leads to a grand living room with lighted pecky cypress beams, blonde tiled floors, gorgeous arched window casings and a Euro-style fireplace with the sloped chimney. One step up leads to the sunfilled dining room and then off to the modern kitchen with huge Carerra marble island, Dacor 6 burner range and all the amenities you would expect from this new kitchen and the adjoining family room. New huge sliding glassed doors overlook the garden and the lap pool and the al fresco patio with the fenced backyard. The 2 car-parking is on this level. The main level has 2 bright bedrooms (one is a great office with bookshelves) and a full bath. Go up the flighted steps with iron railings and windows at the landing leading to two additional bedrooms and an adjoining bath with original charming blue and white tile, loads of closet space and complete privacy from the lower public spaces. So, live in one of the most sought after neighborhoods in what the Economist just rated one of the most livable cities in a rare European style home that feels like a constant vacation. Pretty sweet.
