Property Description

Welcome to Historic Avondale Estates, Perched gracefully on a hill overlooking Kensington Road, this classic Tudor Cottage balances historic charm with thoughtful updates. This premier location in Avondale Estates makes it walkable to all the best spots ... pool, park, lake, and the incredible Town Green. Upon entering this sweet home, you're greeted by a spacious light-filled living room w/built in bookcases & a fireplace. The sunny office or playroom, tucked just behind the formal living room, makes working or playing from home easy. Entertain with ease in the formal dining and open-concept kitchen and great room-complete with an renovated kitchen designed for modern living. A guest bedroom & new half bath round out the first floor. Head on upstairs to a spacious en suite primary bedroom with an attached laundry room, and a renovated primary bath. Two guest bedrooms w/ original eaves and a hallway bathroom makes it convenient to share. The one-car garage and dry basement with Trotter guarantee provide ample storage. Outdoors, the magic continues with a huge fenced-in flat backyard that backs up to one of Avondale's secret "pocket" parks-peaceful, private, and perfect for play. Gather friends on the professionally installed patio and back deck, where cozy fall evenings and summer cookouts await. This home offers the rare mix of historic character, modern updates, and community spirit that makes Avondale Estates so beloved. "A touch of Mayberry nestled quietly inside of Metro Atlanta"
