A classic mid-century ranch with the kind of space and layout that’s hard to find. Set on a large lot near Emory University and Fernbank Elementary School, this four-sides brick home offers solid construction, generous rooms, and an easy one-level flow designed for everyday living. Inside, the home unfolds with bright, spacious living areas and large windows that frame expansive views of the backyard. The main level includes a welcoming living room, a separate dining room, and a large family room that creates plenty of space to gather, relax, and spread out. A sunroom/solarium brings in even more natural light and offers the perfect spot to enjoy the backyard year-round. With four true bedrooms, the layout provides flexibility for guests, offices, or growing households. The home’s mid-century design emphasizes comfortable, open flow between rooms while keeping each space distinct and functional. Downstairs, a drive-under garage and expansive basement offer incredible bonus space, including a finished room with its own fireplace that can easily serve as a rec room, office, or media space. The basement also features a huge concrete floor area with abundant storage potential. Outside, the large fenced backyard is ready for entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the space and privacy of a generous lot. Rock solid construction, spacious interiors, and a location close to Emory, Fernbank, and intown conveniences make this a home with both character and opportunity.
