Situated on the original builder's namesake avenue, one will find this cottage gem. Built in 1936, local architects remodeled and restored the original construction, while still paying homage to its original charm. As you approach the home, you are greeted by mature live oak trees that provide a natural canopy over the property. The exterior of the home blends with the surrounding landscape and the front porch offers a welcoming entrance. Upon entering, the entry living space allows for a moment of settlement before moving into the expanded and modernized kitchen, including a mini bar and wine fridge. Just off the kitchen are the two original bedrooms (one currently used as a den) that share a full bathroom. The dining room is a true standout feature of the home featuring floor to ceiling glass windows, blurring the line between indoors and out. The integration of the interior and exterior awakens one’s senses; you can’t be in the home without knowing what kind of day it is. Large double sliders connect to the outdoor living where guests can enjoy the cathedral of trees from wood and concrete terraces that float above the pea-graveled garden. The deeper one ventures into the home, the more surprising and better it becomes. The primary suite is tucked away in the back offering exceptional privacy. Both the primary bedroom and bathroom feature unfinished shiplap walls that add warmth and character to the modern design. Natural light floods the primary bathroom, with a large walk-in shower and enormous soaking tub for relaxing after a long day. Just off the primary bedroom, a screened porch offers a peaceful retreat to enjoy and take in the surrounding landscape alongside century-old trees. Whether you’re looking for a cozy retreat or a space to entertain family and friends, this home has everything you need. Walking distance to the vibrant and bustling SoCo, it’s turnkey ready for move-in, so you can begin enjoying all that it has to offer right away.
