Spacious, bright, and utterly charming, this soulful 1930s Craftsman bungalow is perfectly situated in the heart of Winnona Park. Past the idyllic fenced front yard - perfect for neighborhood play - rests a lovely home full of original period details with a floorplan suitable for a variety of uses sure to satisfy the lifestyle needs of today’s buyer. Just inside the cheery front door, the ample family room features a handsome fireplace focal point flanked by built-in bookcases and a triple window adorned with wooden plantation shutters. Another built-in bookcase punctuates the adjacent sunroom which currently functions as the quintessential playroom but would also make a superb home office, library or separate den. A beautiful arched opening links the family room to the sizable dining room which showcases gorgeous millwork and wallpaper and leads to the spunky kitchen beyond, where vintage touches blend seamlessly with modern functionality. The attached mudroom provides additional storage, space for laundry and an airy transition to the outdoor living areas. Three main floor bedrooms afford numerous options for optimal use and are centered around a charming bath with a porcelain tub and timeless tile. Upstairs, the owner’s retreat features a wall of custom built-ins and a refreshed bathroom with wainscoting and a separate tub and shower, while the attached flex space provides ideal room for a nursery, den, hobbies, or an additional office. Outside, a spacious deck leads to a lower-level patio and private backyard, complete with a detached garage with expanded storage, area for a fire pit, and new play house. Not to be overlooked is the huge cellar with both interior and exterior access, providing loads of added storage and even the possibility for additional finished space. Just moments from the neighborhood schools, Decatur Square, Oakhurst Square, Agnes Scott College, and the proposed Legacy Park. Winnona Park is a thriving, vibrant and social neighborhood not to be missed!
