Designed in 1959, this authentic Mid-Century Modern residence sits just blocks from the Emory/CDC campus and offers a striking blend of architectural character and modern efficiency. The exterior is a thoughtful composition of shingle, cedar, and stone, seamlessly integrated into its wooded surroundings. A lighted boardwalk leads from the driveway to a private side-entry courtyard with a fire pit and under the watchful eye of one of three hand-carved Moai totems — a dramatic and memorable arrival experience. Inside, the original flagstone foyer opens to a vaulted, open-concept living space anchored by a floor-to-ceiling wall of glass overlooking the manicured front lawn. Natural light pours in, reinforcing the home’s connection to the outdoors. The renovated kitchen balances clean modern updates with the home’s original design integrity. Hardwood floors run throughout the main level, where fully renovated bathrooms reflect a sophisticated, contemporary aesthetic. Energy efficiency is a defining feature of this property. Fed by a state-of-the-art 42-panel SOLAR system, this home features a premium 360 Amp-hour (Ah) lithium battery which provides massive energy independence. It serves as a 17+ kWh fuel tank so you can run critical appliances, lights, refrigerators for over a day (recharges daily with sunshine). New windows and updated mechanical systems further enhance performance and comfort. The terrace level offers additional living space with a gas fireplace, full bathroom, and generous laundry room with utility sink — ideal for guests, office, or flex space. Located minutes from Emory, the CDC, the VA Hospital, Toco Hill shopping and dining, and major interstates, this home combines architectural pedigree with exceptional convenience. Priced below recent appraisal. Extensive recent improvements include: new electrical panel and breakers, entire electrical system inspected and brought to code, plumbing system scoped and verified, roof inspected and verified, new vapor barrier and air quality improvement made, HVAC serviced, termite inspection completed.
