Storybook Charm Meets Thoughtful Renovation in the Heart of Garden Hills
Perfectly perched along the edge of Alexander Park, this completely restored and recently renovated cottage offers an unbeatable combination of location, style, and privacy. Renovated in 2022 by Stuart Grubb, every inch of the home has been carefully updated while preserving its timeless appeal.
The stunning kitchen features custom maple cabinetry, sleek black leathered granite counters, and refinished white oak floors that flow seamlessly throughout the home. Tongue-and-groove ceilings and shiplap accents add texture and warmth, while charming window bench seating invites quiet moments in the sun. Expansive new windows—including several Palladian-style—flood the interiors with natural light.
The spacious rear family room is a true showstopper—anchored by a black marble wood-burning fireplace with a custom wood mantle, and surrounded by two full walls of oversized windows overlooking Alexander Park.
Outside, the storybook curb appeal includes a white picket fence, a restored wooden front door, and a welcoming herringbone brick entryway. Lush, manicured landscaping flows naturally into the park behind, creating a serene, private oasis. Enjoy outdoor living at its finest with a covered stone patio off the primary suite, complete with underdecking for year-round enjoyment. The rear tiered deck includes a private gazebo with ambient string lighting, planter boxes, a ceiling fan, firepit, and its own electrical connection—extending the outdoor season with comfort and warmth, whether you're entertaining or simply unwinding in peace.
The primary suite boasts a luxurious marble bathroom with dual vanities, a basketweave tile floor, heated flooring, shower sprayer, heated towel rack, and a large custom walk-in closet. Additional highlights include arched niches, all-new rocker switches and recessed lighting, bronze gutters, solid wood interior doors, and quiet, tucked-away bedrooms.
A rare two-car garage includes a 240-volt EV charger, auto gate, and whole-house surge protector. A full irrigation system and thoughtful upgrades throughout add ease and efficiency to everyday living.
All of this is just a short stroll to the Garden Hills pool, duck pond, Christ the King School, Peachtree Road Farmers Market, and all the charm this beloved Buckhead neighborhood has to offer. Don't miss your chance to make this home your own!
