This 4-bedroom, bonus room, 3.5-bath haven is more than just a home—it's a work of art, blending timeless design with modern flair.
As you step inside, you're immediately greeted by a thoughtful layout that offers both spaciousness and intimacy. The grand staircase welcomes you, leading to an expansive upstairs landing — the perfect place for a quiet reading nook, home office, or perhaps a cozy play area. The heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen, is every chef's dream: premium appliances, generous counter space, and an adjoining scullery for those who love to entertain in style. Need a bit more convenience? The dedicated mudroom and spacious laundry room add practicality without compromising on elegance.
It's the custom touches that truly make this home special. Take a moment to admire the reclaimed cherry wood paneling that adds a rich, timeless feel to the dining room. The hand-forged wrought iron railings on the dramatic staircase are not only a bold design statement but a glimpse into the level of craftsmanship that defines this home. You'll also find a quiet, private home office tucked below the stairs—perfect for a productive workday or peaceful retreat.
The spacious primary bedroom, located on the first floor, is a serene escape, with an ensuite bath that feels like your very own spa retreat. Upstairs, you'll find three large bedrooms, each with expansive walk-in closets, plus a bonus room that could easily double as a fifth bedroom. And let's not forget the convenient walk-in attic storage, making sure there's a place for everything.
Step outside to your very own private oasis—where the charm of the indoors seamlessly flows into the outdoors. The back terrace, featuring a cozy wood-burning fireplace, gas grill connected to a gas line, and the luxurious Ipe wood flooring, is perfect for gatherings and quiet evenings alike. This backyard space is a year-round retreat that will have you lingering long after the sun sets.
A detached two-car garage adds an extra layer of convenience and storage, while the perfectly manicured lawn, complete with an irrigation system, adds the finishing touch to this pristine property.
Homes of this caliber in such a prime Inside-the-Beltline location don't come around often. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of luxury at 523 Vick Avenue, where custom design and exceptional craftsmanship await.
