BACK ON MARKET! NO FAULT OF SELLER. Welcome to 2859 Royal Bluff! As you open the front door you will be greeted with newly installed Luxury Vinyl Plank, which extends throughout the upper and lower levels, as well as a two story foyer allowing light to flow through the space. Continue through to the open concept, vaulted ceiling family room to find your cozy fireplace and access to the kitchen outfitted with a breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances and laundry room just off the kitchen. The primary suite on the main level has tray ceilings and a stunningly updated bathroom with dual vanities, glass enclosed, oversized shower and walk-in closet. Garage access is also kitchen level making that grocery haul a little easier. As you make your way upstairs you will find 2 additional guest bedrooms, open view to both the family room and foyer from the catwalk, a full bathroom and a large bonus room that can be used as a 4th bedroom or flex space for office, media, workout or whatever else you can come up with. Please don't miss the sweet back garden where you can enjoy lazy days on the covered patio and nights by the firepit with friends. The seller has made some smart updates including a tankless water heater, whole house surge protection, garage air filtration system and Hardie Plank siding. You really can't beat the location! We are minutes from all the shops and restaurants of Decatur Square, entrance to the Path East Decatur Greenway is right outside the neighborhood as well as Legacy Park. Emory University is approximately 15 minutes away and I-285 and I-20 are easily accessed. Come and see!
