This is the home you have been waiting for! A pearl of a home with lime washed brick sitting on a sweeping lot in adorable Medlock Park. The backyard is idyllic and private for children and a fun place to host a real BBQ. Inside, this immaculate home embodies the beautiful work of its interior designer owner. It has vaulted ceilings in the living room, a statement fireplace, and a renovated kitchen with marble countertops, handmade tile, and is flooded with natural light. The open floor plan with built-in floor to ceiling storage makes this space as functional as it is stunning. A newly renovated hall bath with marble hexagon flooring is situated between two light and bright bedrooms. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a marble vanity and a closet with organizers to make it exceptionally efficient. Located a short stroll or roll from Medlock pool, park and access to the tree canopied PATH trail system. Medlock Park is a neighborhood that you won’t want to leave with Ira B. Melton Park and the Clyde Sheppard Nature Preserve just up the street. Zoned for Fernbank Elementary, Druid Hills Middle and Druid Hills High.
