Welcome to lakeside living in East Lake Terrace. With a 180 degree view of the lake, this tastefully renovated 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home sits directly across from Buena Vista Lake, blending serene waterfront scenery with modern, thoughtful design. A welcoming, gabled front porch provides panoramic views of the tranquil lake—perfect for morning coffee or evening sunsets. Step inside to a bright and airy open floor plan anchored by a vaulted designer kitchen and dining addition with a wall of windows. The centerpiece is a 9 foot quartz island framed by warm, light oak and sage cabinetry—an elegant, functional heart for cooking and gatherings. A dedicated pantry keeps essentials organized while the adjacent wet bar and wine cooler are perfect for entertaining. The lakeview primary suite is a private retreat, featuring vaulted ceilings, a double vanity, abundant tile, a frameless glass surround shower, elegant soaking tub, and a custom closet system. A well appointed laundry room and a flexible fourth bedroom—ideal as an office or guest room—add practical convenience alongside the other two secondary bedrooms. The shared bath is smartly designed with wet and dry zones for added comfort and efficiency. Major systems and structural work were completed with permits for peace of mind: NEW Roof, HVAC, Electrical, and Plumbing. Outside, the fenced backyard hosts a rebuilt, detached two car garage with extra storage, and an EV plug - Ready for interior finishing. The backyard is fully enclosed, making it safe for pets. The property’s unique position across from Buena Vista Lake invites relaxation and scenic views throughout the home. The future homeowners will enjoy easy access to Barker Bryant Park amenities—walking paths, pavilion and picnic tables, and boat ramp – and will enjoy proximity to Decatur city center, downtown Atlanta, the airport, and nearby shopping. No HOA; unincorporated DeKalb County taxes. Bonus: A new Publix complex opens in 2027 on Candler Road, just southeast of nearby East Lake Golf course. Move in ready and thoughtfully renovated, this lakefront home is ready to welcome you. Schedule your private showing today and imagine life on Buena Vista Lake.
