This inviting Craftsman features high ceilings, abundant natural light, solid oak hardwood floors, fresh neutral paint, and updated lighting throughout. The open living and dining areas include a fireplace and dry bar, while the kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a pantry, and a flexible breakfast room or office. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and two full baths, including a generous primary suite with a large walk-in closet. The kitchen opens to an expansive deck overlooking the backyard and level driveway, an ideal spot for a basketball hoop. Added in 2012, the loft above the garage provides an additional bedroom and full bath, perfect for guests, a private office, or recreation space. A separate shed offers additional storage. Two covered front porches overlook a quiet dead-end street known for its friendly neighborhood spirit, annual block party, and Oakhurst's Porchfest festivities. Two nearby pedestrian paths provide easy access to Mead Road, Oakhurst Village, and Oakhurst Elementary. A new roof over the main residence and a new water heater add peace of mind. Convenient to MARTA, Emory/CDC, downtown Atlanta, and the airport. Staging and professional photos coming soon!
