Exceptional Avondale Estates Tudor showpiece, fully revived to be truly one of a kind. This Alan Clark Architects designed home is built to custom specifications using the highest quality materials and finishes exceeding typical “spec builds.” Bursting with character, it includes four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a large one bedroom one bath accessory dwelling, multiple exterior patios, a sunroom, and a fully conditioned garage/workshop. The home is loaded with modern amenities while showcasing heaps of unique touches absent from most new construction homes. Perched on corner lot, you enter the home by the flagstone front patio, through a stone arched portico and custom hand carved front door (specially ordered from California), one side delivers the formal living room and powder room, the other side the dining room seamlessly connected to the idyllic sunroom. Through the hallway the island anchored kitchen opens to the family room. The laundry room and main floor guest suite are located at the rear of the home. The owner's suite is upstairs, along with two additional bedrooms and a jack-and-jill bathroom. The owner's bathroom features double vanities, heated floors, a private water closet, beautiful custom tile, and a large shower with rainfall shower head and separate handheld faucet, along with frameless glass. The owner's suite also includes a separate makeup/changing room and a massive walk-in closet with custom wood shelving and metal hanging rods. There is also a handy laundry chute. The kitchen incorporates professional grade Zline appliances in matte black, including 36”, 6 burner dual fuel range, vent hood, counter depth French door refrigerator, quiet dishwasher, and microwave drawer. The kitchen also boasts custom, to the ceiling, cabinets with under cabinet lighting, upgraded quartzite countertops, granite undermount sink, large center island with bar seating, a pot filler at the stove, and a deep pantry with built-in shelving. The vintage Dutch back door connects to a second flagstone patio and grilling area with steps to the driveway and the oversized two-car garage. Above the garage is a perfectly appointed dwelling unit with separately metered utilities, a full kitchen, gas range, tankless water heater, adorable eating nook and a private deck. The garage is fully air conditioned and plumbed for a woodworking shop along with extra washer and dryer hookups. The build quality is illustrated by the use of lifetime slate style shingles, custom trim and molding, solid and solid core interior doors, #1 Grade 3 1/2" red oak flooring, Ply Gem windows, custom tile selections, Sherwin Williams SuperPaint®, Rheem tankless water heaters, high efficiency HVAC systems, spray foam insulation, encapsulated crawl space, LED lighting, round gutter downspouts, and the extensive landscaping package. Optimally located, moments from Avondale Tudor Village and Town Green, Avondale Lake, Avondale Swim & Tennis Club, dining, pubs, coffee shops, festivals and concerts. Within the award-winning Museum Charter School district. Close to Emory Dekalb Medical, Agnes Scott, CDC/Emory Campus, Dekalb Farmers Market, Decatur Square, and more.
