Prime location in Oakhurst with a rear garden entrance and covered parking off Madison Ave. This is a special home, with quality finishes, millwork, and generous natural light throughout. Entirely gutted, renovated, and expanded in 2016 by well-respected local builder, 4M Contracting, the original bungalow was enlarged to include a modern addition in the rear. The front of the main level includes a den to gather around the original fireplace, a bedroom with a full bathroom that also makes a terrific home office, hallway mudroom area, and a large and separate dining room encased in judges paneling. The dining room and hallway harmoniously lead to the contemporary open kitchen and living room, with views to the rear garden and screened-in porch. Kitchen is stocked with stainless steel appliances, plenty of cabinet and counter space, a flat counter bar, walk in and butler’s pantries, and a separate eating area. A fireplace and built-in shelving anchor the living room. A dramatic, 2-story stairway leads to the upstairs floor with an additional 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and laundry room. Large, private owner’s suite with walls of windows, a spacious walk-in closet, and a glorious bathroom with double-vanity, soaking tub, and double-shower. Two middle bedrooms are adjoined by a jack-and-jill bathroom, with the 4th bedroom (ensuite) tucked into the front corner of the house. Solar panels and the Tesla Power Wall provide hyper-efficiency. Short stroll to the restaurants of Oakhurst Village, elementary schools, Oakhurst Park and Dog Park, MARTA, and so much more! Front porch serves as the perfect stage for Porchfest, and you’ll be right in the action of the Madison Ave Soapbox Derby. What a house and community. Come and make this your home.
