Property Description

Welcome to this incredible fully renovated home in sought-after Chastain Park! This nearly 8,000 square foot home with a Four Car Garage and Primary on Main has it all: the main level was completely gutted and renovated PLUS tons of gorgeous landscaping has been added - the kitchen, bathrooms, 2 laundry rooms, hardwoods, and built-in cabinets are new, along with new roof, water heater, and HVACs!! Enter into the grand two story entrance, welcomed by brand new solid white oak hardwood floors that lead you throughout the home. A private office and separate dining room flank the handsome entryway. An oversized family room is cozy and warm, with a beautiful fireplace and built-in bookshelves. The fully renovated Kitchen is complete with custom oak cabinetry, Wolf and Subzero appliances, and so much storage space!! From the main level, enjoy a covered patio off of the kitchen and a spacious deck off of the family room that is freshly painted that overlooks the large backyard. A stunning Primary Suite is located on the Main Level, featuring huge His and Hers closets with custom built-in shelving, and a massive bathroom with an oversized double shower, soaking tub, and tons of storage. Upstairs features 4 additional bedrooms, one that can be used as a Media Room or Playroom for kids and teens. This home offers TWO laundry rooms: one on the main level, and another is located upstairs. The basement provides tons of additional living space: a second cozy media room with a functioning fireplace, plus a fabulous billiards room with a glass window to view your sports car as you enjoy playing pool! The basement features an additional bedroom and full bath, along with two more finished rooms, perfect for a gym and a wine cellar, plus tons of storage space! This home is perfectly located just north of Chastain Park and a short drive to all that Buckhead has to offer.
