street. With abundant curb appeal, a sprawling lawn, and thoughtful landscaping, the
front of the home is bathed in beautiful sunlight, enjoying an enviable southerly aspect.
Access to the home is via a sweeping, newly replaced staircase that leads to an
attractive entryway. Once inside, you’re greeted by a soaring two-story void. Light
streams into the home via a fanlight, transom, and myriad double-glazed, double-hung
windows. Overhead are stylish contemporary light fittings. T o your right is a space
suitable for a dedicated dining room or additional living area featuring handsome
wainscoting. T o your left is a spacious, carpeted office sectioned off by elegant French
doors.
Stretching further into the heart of this substantial home, you’ll discover the roomy
lounge room whose focal point is a cozy wood-burning, marble-framed fireplace.
Convenient block-out curtains adorn the windows, complemented by a bright neutral
palette and ontrend cornice-free ceilings that extend throughout almost the entire home.
Flowing from the living and dining area is a doorway to a huge wraparound deck (freshly
painted and partially covered), perfect for entertaining and alfresco dining.
Adjoining the living room is an additional dining space and a large, functional kitchen
where you’ll easily envision yourself cooking up a storm next Thanksgiving. Featuring
timeless timber cabinetry, rustic splashback, spacious granite countertops, stainless
steel appliances, and ample storage, it’ll impress even the fussiest of gourmands.
Adjoining the kitchen is a cleverly concealed washer and dryer with additional storage
options.
Downstairs offers versatile living. It’s the perfect space for a gym, home theater, games
room, or teenage retreat. This level also features plenty of storage and access to the
split tuck-under garages. For your convenience, there’s also a fit-out for a future
bathroom.
Head back upstairs to the third level, and you’re in for a real treat! Here you’ll discover
the luxurious bedrooms, with the primary being the home’s pièce de résistance. It
boasts a cathedral ceiling, fanlight, spacious sitting room, and second fireplace. French
doors flow to the outdoors where a spacious balcony awaits, offering breathtaking views
over the treetops to Sweat Mountain in the northeast. Then, as the leaves cascade, the
magnificent spectacle of Mount Kennesaw unfolds to the northwest. It’s the perfect
place to greet the day with a steaming cup of coffee. The opulent ensuite features a
soaking tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in shower. The walk-in-robe has new built-in
shelving.
From the bedroom’s balcony, you can gaze down on your newly acquired kingdom with
its endless space perfect for tireless teens and tots, pampered pooches, and
mollycoddled moggies. The generous yard is truly a blank canvas whose use is limited
only by your imagination.
