To the left, a bold dining room sparkles with statement lighting, setting the stage for unforgettable gatherings. The living room is a warm yet refined retreat with its stunning modern stone fireplace ideal for cozy evenings or sophisticated entertaining. The heart of the home? A showstopping entertainer's kitchen featuring two oversized islands, Fulgor Milano double ovens, a six-burner cooktop with griddle, generous cabinetry, and a one-of-a-kind butler's pantry. Just beyond, the inviting family room overlooks the newly resurfaced Pebble Tec pool, blending indoor comfort with outdoor beauty. Upstairs, your peaceful primary suite awaits with soaring ceilings, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-like bath complete with a soaking tub, glass shower, and double vanity. Three additional bedrooms including one with its own en suite provide space and flexibility for family, guests, or creative pursuits. The sweet surprise-A completely renovated in-law suite at the rear of the home offers privacy and style, complete with its own kitchen, den, dining area, and a second-story suite with charming arched windows, lounge space, and generous closets. Need room to grow? An unfinished bonus space above the oversized garage is perfect for a home gym, art studio, or second office. The backyard is a dream for both relaxation and play with lush green areas for games and gatherings, and of course, the sparkling pool at the center of it all. Nestled in the top-rated City Schools of Decatur and just minutes from the vibrant Decatur Square/EMORY/CHOA/CDC, this home offers the ultimate mix of comfort, creativity, and community.
