HOLY WOW! Truly the epitome of intown living, this modern bungalow is an absolute showstopper and has been lovingly restored & fully-renovated by the two designers that call this masterpiece their home.

The front of this idyllic home faces one of Morningside’s favorite tree-lined streets and you are welcomed home by a flagstone pathway to a new oversized front porch lined w/new French doors, gas lanterns, and even a porch swing made with reclaimed doors from the original bungalow. The exterior is draped in a brand new standing seam metal roof w/gutters and features all new Jeld-Wen windows and doors flood this home with light.

Luxury is truly in the details and no expenses were spared as impeccable details abound around every interior corner. New site finished oak hardwoods w/wood floor vents, luxurious door & window hardware, electric window treatments, new recessed lighting, designer lighting, all are throughout.

You are greeted inside by a cozy foyer anchored by a double-sided gas fireplace with custom mantles separating a the open living/dining room and a keeping room.

You will be the envy of Morningside with this chef’s kitchen equipped with custom Ultracraft cabinetry topped with internally lit glass vignette cases above, antique mirrored glass backsplash, Legrande undercabinet lighting & electric strips, commercial grade appliances including a 6-burner range, Meile steam oven and Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawers. A leathered granite rear counter perfectly complements a stunning waterfall-edged island draped in Cambria quartz showcasing twin designer brass pendants.

The massive owner’s suite replete with its green velvet wall coverings commands a whole side of this home and features French doors leading to the porch.

A freestanding soaking tub, incredible inlaid marble floors, custom dual vanities and impressive brass hardware complete the space. A private water closet houses the ultimate “intelligent toilet” which also serves as a bidet w/multiple washing/drying options. A inspirational lacquered Farrow & Ball powder room hidden under the stairs rounds out the lower level.

The stairwell is truly a centerpiece with custom hand-painted Mexican tiles that lead you upstairs which is home to three bedrooms and a sun-drenched common hallway with bonus space. One of the rooms features an en-suite bath and the other two share a fully-renovated bath. What you can’t see are massive new ceiling beams, new floor joists, spray foam insulation among other modern-day improvements behind the walls.

Storage is plentiful with a huge dry unfinished basement. A gym/bonus room has been added here that opens to the covered lanai on the terrace level. There are too many bells & whistles to list. A+ location location in Morningside School District – just around the corner from the best Atlanta has to offer in terms of shops, parks and restaurants. This home genuinely must be seen to be believed.
