There are houses that check the boxes... and then there are houses that stop you in your tracks. Welcome to one of the most thoughtfully renovated homes in Ormewood Park. Completely reimagined in 2024, this designer-owned home perfectly blends historic charm with modern comfort. Every decision was intentional, every finish carefully selected, creating a home that feels both timeless and inviting. The kitchen is the heart of the home and a space you'll have a hard time leaving. Custom inset cabinetry, furniture-style built-ins, unlacquered brass hardware, designer lighting, integrated storage, and stunning Mumtaz stone countertops come together to create something truly special. Every appliance is brand new, while brick flooring adds warmth, texture, and character that feels right at home with the property's original charm. Throughout the home, refinished hardwood floors, multiple living spaces, and thoughtful design details create a sense of comfort that's hard to put into words. The primary suite feels like a boutique hotel retreat, complete with a spa-worthy bathroom featuring three distinct varieties of marble that come together to create a truly one-of-a-kind space. Step outside to a massive screened porch overlooking the beautifully landscaped, walkout backyard complete with a custom-built treehouse, grilling patio, and oversized storage shed. Whether hosting friends or enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, this backyard was made to be enjoyed. While the beauty is obvious, it's what's behind the walls that makes this home truly special. The renovation included a new sewer line, HVAC system and ductwork, plumbing, electrical, tankless water heater, crawlspace vapor barrier, appliances, fixtures, and more. Rather than erase the home's character, the renovation was designed to celebrate it. And then there's the neighborhood. Walk to Red's Farm or hop on the BeltLine for easy access to coffee shops, wine bars, Grant Park, Zoo Atlanta. Take the Beltline further in one direction to Lee + White and the other direction to Cabbagetown, Inman Park, and beyond. Add in Ormewood Park's annual Makers Festival, legendary Halloween celebrations, and the kind of community where neighbors actually know each other, and it's easy to see why so many people fall in love with this neighborhood. Some homes are beautiful. Some homes are memorable. This one is both.
