Description

WOW! This remarkable home was taken down to the studs and thoughtfully rebuilt, preserving all the historic charm and character of the original while adding the modern comforts today's buyers desire. From the moment you arrive, it's clear that no detail was overlooked. Situated on a desirable corner lot made up of two parcels, the exterior showcases a limewash finish on both the home and detached garage, accented by a brand-new CertainTeed roof, copper chimney cap, and new gutters with leaf protection and round downspouts. A wide new front driveway and an additional back driveway with a double drive-through gate and 50-amp RV connection provide plenty of parking and convenience. The two-car detached garage includes a carport and 2 unfinished bonus rooms above for additional storage or the perfect man cave or home office! The landscaping has been beautifully designed with Zoysia sod in both the front and back yards, an irrigation system, extensive lighting, and a privacy fence with three entry gates. Step outside to your private oasis with a PebbleTec saltwater pool, complete with a tanning ledge and waterfall feature. The travertine tile pool deck surrounds the sparkling water and creates the perfect setting for entertaining. Double decks add to the outdoor appeal-the upper deck crafted from Trex composite with a tongue-and-groove ceiling, and the lower level featuring under decking with lights and a gutter system for year-round enjoyment. The inviting front porch with double entry doors completes the picture of true Southern living. Inside, the home feels brand new while still honoring its historic style. The entire space has been renovated with new windows dressed in plantation shutters, all new interior and exterior doors, crown molding throughout, upgraded lighting, brand-new staircase to unfinished walk-in attic space. Updated electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems. Spray foam insulation in the walls and roof ensures efficiency and comfort. The heart of the home is the stunning kitchen, featuring a raised ceiling, a large island illuminated by a high-end brass light fixture, and a separate counter space with elegant glass-front cabinets that are original to the home. High-quality KitchenAid appliances with double ovens, farmhouse sink, a pot filler, garbage disposal, and a spacious walk-in butler's pantry. A large kitchen window fills the space with natural light, while the adjacent dining room, finished with wainscoting and a sparkling crystal chandelier, offers the perfect setting for gatherings. The living room is designed for both comfort and style, with a raised coffered ceiling and a beautiful fireplace flanked by two French-inspired bookcases. The laundry room is equally impressive, offering a large farmhouse sink, cabinet space, and antique French sliding doors. Laundry is accessible from hallway and primary suite. The primary bedroom is a retreat of its own, featuring a raised ceiling, private access to the back deck, and a spacious walk-in closet. The primary bath has an oversized tiled shower, double vanities, water closet, and a linen closet. The guest bedroom also includes a walk-in closet with a bath accessible from both the bedroom and hallway. The finished terrace level adds flexibility to the home, offering an additional bedroom, full bath, and a living or flex space ideal for guests, or recreation/game room with access to covered patio and pool area. Every corner of this home was carefully designed to blend modern updates with timeless character, creating a one-of-a-kind residence in a charming Griffin neighborhood.
