Property Description
In the heart of Morningside, this storybook brick home is a quiet retreat tucked into the city. Originally designed as a duplex and now enjoyed as a single-family residence, the nearly 100-year-old home spans 2,660 square feet. The 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath layout, with an updated kitchen and an upstairs bonus room with kitchenette, offers rare flexibility-with a separate side entrance on Zimmer Drive for easy reconversion should you desire income potential. Framed by nature, the stone pathway leads to an arched entry-an invitation to slow down the moment you arrive. The home's steep gables and painted brick exterior offer timeless charm and character, while inside, the atmosphere shifts to calm, light-filled living. Rich hardwood floors, substantial original moulding, 9-foot ceilings, and soft architectural arches reflect the home's heritage, while freshly painted interiors and abundant natural light create an atmosphere of luxury that feels calm, grounded, and peaceful. The main level features a living room, dining room, sunroom and two bedrooms (one ensuite) and one-and-a-half baths, creating ease for everyday living. The kitchen features custom white cabinets, a pantry, newer appliances, stunning Brazilian granite, and an Italian glass backsplash, with a cozy breakfast room attached, as well as access to the deck. Upstairs, a welcoming den with a kitchenette provides a wonderful secondary living space, accompanied by two additional bedrooms and a full bath-complete with a stacked washer and dryer for convenience. The upstairs primary bedroom features a tidy office, with a doorway to a private deck facing east for sunrise views. Use the upstairs as a guest retreat, rental income potential, or create the primary suite of your dreams. The space, the structure, and the character are there. Exceptional outdoor living spaces extend the peaceful ambiance of this home. A generous-sized deck provides over 730 sq ft of outdoor living area, set up for dining and entertaining, just a step outside the kitchen. Below lies an expansive, fenced, grassy back yard with a play structure-ideal for recreation and gatherings beneath the trees. The full unfinished basement includes a drive-under garage, a laundry closet with full-sized washer and dryer, generous storage closets, and abundant space for future customization. A brand-new roof adds lasting peace of mind. Just beyond your front door: tree-lined sidewalks, the eclectic shops and restaurants of Morningside Village, the beloved Alon's Bakery, and the warmth of one of Atlanta's most treasured communities. The neighborhood is zoned for sought-after Morningside Elementary School and is in close proximity to Emory, Midtown and Downtown Atlanta, Piedmont Park, the Atlanta Botanical Garden, the Woodruff Arts Center, and more. This is a home that feels worlds away, yet exactly where you want to be.
