NEW ROOF, TIMELESS FOUR-SIDED BRICK, GRAND SPACES, AND A HOME DESIGNED TO BE LIVED IN BEAUTIFULLY. Offering over 3,200 square feet, five bedrooms, and four full bathrooms, this impressive residence pairs classic architectural presence with thoughtful updates and beautifully designed spaces, all within the sought-after Ola school district. From the moment you step inside, the home unfolds with a dramatic two-story foyer, beautiful hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and an abundance of natural light. The formal dining room sets the stage for memorable gatherings, while the impressive two-story family room, anchored by a warm fireplace, creates a space that feels both grand and inviting. At the heart of the home, the spacious kitchen blends style and function with a large center island, generous pantry, and newer appliances, flowing effortlessly into the surrounding living spaces. French doors open to an additional sitting or keeping room, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee, quiet conversation, or simply unwinding at home. Thoughtfully positioned on the main level, a bedroom with access to a full bathroom provides the flexibility today’s lifestyle calls for—ideal for overnight guests, a private office, or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite offers a retreat of its own, complete with tray ceilings, a generous walk-in closet, dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower. Spacious secondary bedrooms provide plenty of room to spread out, complemented by a convenient Jack-and-Jill bath. Step outside to a private fenced backyard framed by mature landscaping, where a custom patio and gazebo create an inviting setting for alfresco dining, weekend gatherings, or peaceful evenings under the Georgia sky. With a new roof, newer appliances, updated electrical, two-car garage, and more than 3,200 square feet of versatile living space, this home beautifully balances timeless character with meaningful updates. Elegant enough to impress. Spacious enough to grow. Warm enough to feel like home.
