Description
A once-in-a-generation opportunity in the heart of Morningside. Lovingly cherished by the same family for an extraordinary 66 years, this timeless residence is rich with character, architectural charm, and endless possibilities. Beautifully situated on one of Morningside’s most coveted streets, the home captivates from the moment you arrive with its distinctive Mediterranean-inspired architecture, handsome tile roof, and exceptional curb appeal. A rare detached two-car garage provides rare convenience seldom found in the neighborhood. Step inside the gracious foyer and discover a home filled with warmth, natural light, and craftsmanship. Bleached hardwood floors flow throughout the main living spaces, while the elegant fireside Living Room features an exquisite bay window and a beautifully detailed fireplace surround. A charming Sunroom offers the perfect setting for a home office, library, or quiet retreat, and the banquet-sized Dining Room is ideal for holiday gatherings and entertaining. At the rear of the home, an expansive Family Room is bathed in sunlight and offers heated floors, abundant custom storage, and generous space for everyday living. The Kitchen is full of personality, showcasing reclaimed wood walls imported from a historic barn that add warmth, texture, and timeless character. A spacious Butler’s Pantry with a second refrigerator provides exceptional storage and entertaining convenience. A full bathroom completes the main level. Upstairs, the Owner’s Suite offers a large walk-in closet (formerly a fourth bedroom) and an ensuite bath with heated floors. Two additional bedrooms and a hall bath provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Thoughtfully maintained over the decades, the home has been updated with a newer HVAC system, newer water heater, and a whole-house generator, providing peace of mind while preserving its remarkable architectural integrity. This is a rare opportunity to become the next steward of a truly special Morningside home. Whether your vision is to thoughtfully refresh its interiors or create a spectacular custom renovation, the possibilities are endless. A beautiful setting on a sidewalk-lined street, the location is just moments from Morningside Village, Virginia-Highland, Piedmont Park, top-rated schools, neighborhood parks, and some of Atlanta’s finest dining and shopping. This is truly a legacy property ready to begin its next chapter.
