About This Home

Perfect setup for young professionals and/or students! Looking for a home where everyone has room to breathe? Nestled on two private wooded acres, this beautifully designed four-bedroom ranch home offers an ideal balance of shared living and personal space. At the heart of the home is an expansive open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area where oversized windows bring in beautiful natural light throughout the day. Whether you're cooking dinner together, hosting a study group, or simply relaxing after class or work, the central living space is warm, inviting, and designed to bring people together. What truly sets this home apart is its thoughtful layout. One end of the house features an exceptionally large “mini-apartment” (21’x26’) complete with bedroom suite, office/living area, electric fireplace, full bathroom and private entrance. On the opposite end of the home, a separate bedroom wing includes three generously sized bedrooms with large closets and a second full bathroom, making it a great option for a separate office or guest bedroom set up. The split-bedroom floor plan offers privacy for everyone, making it especially well suited for those who value both community and quiet. Outside, the setting is equally special. Surrounded by mature trees on two peaceful acres, you'll enjoy the feeling of living in a private woodland retreat while remaining only minutes from Emory, the CDC, Decatur, and Tucker. You can hop on the PATH trail and bike out to Stone Mountain or the Your Dekalb Farmer’s Market.
