Welcome to expansive luxury living wrapped up in storybook cottage style! Set on a manicured lot on a sought-after cul-de-sac in Sandy Springs, this five-bedroom, four-bathroom home with two half bathrooms and four garage spaces was recently updated and built for enjoying the outdoors with guests. Evoking images of poolside leisure, al fresco dining, s’mores at the fire pit or dinner parties that spill out onto the deck, the picturesque exterior features stacked stone and stucco with a gabled roof and windows. Proceed through the front door to the soaring two-story entrance foyer with limestone floors and a formal staircase to the right that leads to the upper level. To the left, enter the banquet-sized dining room with a chandelier and wainscoting that comfortably seats 12. French doors lead to the completely remodeled chef’s kitchen offering new floors/lights/electrical/plumbing, updated wood shelves and cabinets, new quartz countertops and new professional-grade appliances (including a Sub-Zero 48″ refrigerator, a 60″ six-burner Wolf double range with a double griddle and custom 60″ vent hood, a new Cove dishwasher and a new microwave). Surrounded on three sides by peaceful backyard views, the breakfast area features French doors that open to multiple outdoor-deck entertaining spaces. Proceed to the family room with remote Silhouette blinds, a stacked stone fireplace, vaulted ceilings and exposed beams that also offers a rear staircase and a side-door entry to the deck. The cozy fireside living room features built-ins and a coffered ceiling. Hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, which has been updated with a new AC. The main-level primary suite includes a generous spa-inspired bathroom featuring beautiful ceiling detail, a gigantic soaking tub, Carrara marble vanities and floors and a heated marble shower. Upper-level bedroom suites provide generous walk-in closets. The home offers a generous 7,071+/- square feet of space on three levels, plantation shutters throughout and a fully finished terrace level that includes a quartz kitchen, tile and wood floors, a fireplace, a full bathroom, a game area, a fireplace and a media area. Outside, updates include new electrical/plumbing, a new filter unit, a new simmer, new LED pool and spa lights and new Jandy automation. The tile work around the pool has also been upgraded and no-maintenance turf has been added to the backyard. Several pool photos have been virtually staged.
