Nestled in the heart of Medlock Park and within the prestigious Fernbank Elementary school district, this charming farmhouse ranch offers an inviting retreat with its blend of classic elegance and modern comforts. The home boasts 3 spacious bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, ensuring ample space for everyone. The front yard greets you with mature landscaping and a welcoming covered tin roof front porch adorned with slate tiles. Inside, you'll find hardwood flooring throughout, leading you from the entry foyer into a large open living room, dining room, and kitchen area. The living room, with its gas fireplace and vaulted ceilings, is flanked by French doors that open to the front porch, creating a bright and airy space. The kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring a leathered granite eat-in island with built-in bookshelves, a wine fridge, built-in microwave, along with high-quality custom shaker cabinets and stainless steel appliances. Adjacent to the 2-car garage, you'll discover a practical mudroom, laundry room with side-by-side washer and dryer, and a convenient third full bathroom. Each bedroom is generously sized with plenty of storage, and the expansive primary suite can easily accommodate a king-size bed and a large sitting area. The suite also includes a custom double vanity, a private water closet, a linen closet, and a luxurious shower with a built-in bench, along with a walk-in closet featuring custom shelving. A unique addition off the kitchen functions as a versatile family den with its own dedicated HVAC system, vaulted beamed ceilings, and ample natural light, offering a stunning view of the professionally created backyard. The backyard is an outdoor paradise, featuring two deck areas perfect for al fresco dining or morning coffee, high-end turf, a hedge garden, and a modern fence. The backyard also includes an ADU currently used as a home office, complete with dedicated HVAC and power. The backyard is pool-ready for future enhancements! The home features a convenient 2-car garage and an encapsulated crawlspace for added durability and protection. Upgraded Ethernet wiring ensures high-speed connectivity throughout the house. Enjoy the outdoors with a short walk to the 29-acre Clyde Shepherd Nature Preserve, Medlock Park Pool, and various local parks, while downtown Decatur (less than 2 miles away), Emory, Toco Hills, and Interstate access are all easily accessible. Meticulously maintained, this home is a true gem—come see for yourself!
