About this home

What could be better than getting "a deal" on your new home? Getting an interest rate buydown, that's what! With acceptable offer, seller will fund a 2-1 buydown that equates to hundreds of dollars off your payment every month! This is even more powerful than a price reduction. The Classic Kirkwood Bungalow -- reimagined! You'll be amazed to see how this original craftsman style bungalow has been reconfigured and updated for modern living. It is spacious and open, combining thoughtful functionality, easy comfort and elegant design. Matching chef's quality KitchenAid appliances, sparkling crystal chandeliers and jewel-cut hardware. Original (and gorgeously refinished!) solid hardwood floors throughout this home. No "luxury" vinyl in sight. Cozy stone fireplace with gas starter and logs, sealed to protect the stone from woodsmoke because, yes, you can burn wood in there if you prefer the real deal! Open concept dining extends into a large screened porch with vaulted ceiling and fan. Bring the indoors out -- or the outdoors in. However you look at it, the view is delightful. Three full bedrooms on the main level, including a primary suite with double shower and dreamy soaking tub en suite. The walk-in closet for this primary suite is 100% cedar! and installed with a configurable complete closet system. But there's more: this home has TWO primary suites! The one on the upper level is HUGE and has another lovely soaking tub so you can look out over trees and greenery, and cute goats -- a view that will take you away more than Calgon ever could. Swing open your french doors, step onto your Juliet balcony and enjoy the sunrise while sipping your morning brew. This space is so large, in addition to the primary suite you could also create a family room, media room, play room, office, exercise space, etc. A deep front porch, beautifully landscaped front yard, back patio, back deck, and a large back yard that is ready for you to create your own little bit of country right in the heart of Atlanta. New electric, new plumbing, new water heater, new roof, new driveway, dual zoned systems controlled by Nest, alarm system with doorbell that is yours to keep! -- and no detail overlooked. Short walk to downtown Historic Kirkwood, close to Oakhurst, Edgewood, Decatur, East Atlanta, I-20 and more.
