Prime Atlanta location - this quiet cul-de-sac is nestled between the Druid Hills Golf Club, Deepdene Park and Linear Olmstead park. 886 Barton Woods is the epitome of city living, a classic ranch home nestled on over half an acre, that backs up to Fernbank Forest, one of Atlanta's last remaining old-growth forests. Inside, the open floor concept of the living room, complete with a large fireplace, sets the perfect ambiance. The jewel of this home is the primary suite featuring an attached office, direct access to the backyard, a large California closet, and a luxurious bathroom with heated floors, double vanity, soaking tub, steam room shower, and private toilet room. Think of the kitchen as a blank slate ready for your dreams, while perfectly modern and functional as-is, but ready for your updates down the road. Off the kitchen and separate dining area is the standout laundry room that offers ample counter & cabinet space, two large sinks, and direct access to the oversized double garage and utility room. Off the laundry room, a large bonus room awaits, ideal for a pool table or ping pong table and half bath. Step outside into your own private oasis with a fenced-in backyard boasting a playground, flat grassy yard, and a spacious Brazilian ipe deck, perfect for entertaining. The yard is equipped with a sprinkler system to keep it lush year-round. Inside, enjoy entertainment with a surround sound speaker system throughout the entire home. Cherished by the same owners for 44 years, this home is a rare gem in the heart of the city. Don't miss your chance to experience the best of Atlanta living, surrounded by nature yet close to everything!
