Property Description
You know how some homes don't just get updated... they get reborn? That's exactly what happened to this quaint Toco Hills house at 1291 Carolyn Drive. This isn't a patch-and-pray renovation. Back in 2016, this home was taken ALL the way down to the studs and built back with intention, quality, and so much love. Every wall, built in system, every finish... all thoughtfully chosen. Nothing old lurking beneath the surface and the owners added extra square feet and storage. It's truly a modern home wrapped in the charm of an established Atlanta neighborhood close to tons of quaint shopping, established restaurants, Emory University, the new CHOA Hospital, and CDC. Step inside and you'll feel it immediately. The light pours in. The layout just makes sense. The owner's suite is extra spacious like a retreat plus you will enjoy another ensuite bedroom and office as well as a third bathroom. And wait until you see the gorgeous flat and fenced backyard and TimberTech deck. There's a calm here... a peace you can feel in your shoulders the second you exhale. A home that doesn't ask for anything from you because the hard work was already done right. If you're looking for a place that feels new, feels solid, and feels like it was rebuilt for the next chapter of your life, be in touch.
