Brick 4 Side, Ranch

This striking black-brick residence is a rare mid-century modern retreat that blends sleek design, thoughtful updates, and flexible living options, all set on one of the best streets in unincorporated DeKalb County, just beyond the Atlanta city limits, combining intown convenience with the advantage of lower property taxes. The main floor opens into a spacious, light-filled home where custom woodwork, designer lighting, and carefully crafted details create a sense of style and comfort. The large kitchen is a dream for entertaining, complete with a wine fridge and abundant workspace. Multiple living areas provide flexibility for gathering or retreating, and the dining room features expansive sliding doors that lead directly onto the upper deck, where the treetop setting makes every meal or gathering feel like a private escape. The primary suite offers a Scandinavian-inspired ensuite bath, while two additional bedrooms share a beautifully designed hall bath with custom finishes. The lower level expands the possibilities with an enormous finished suite that feels like a home unto itself. With large windows, a private patio, and its own exterior entrance, it offers complete independence. A full kitchen and laundry room, generous dining and living rooms, abundant storage, and a private bedroom with a semi-ensuite bath and custom California Closets make it ideal for use as an income-producing rental, in-law suite, or multi-generational living space. An unfinished portion of the basement provides even more opportunity for customization, whether to enlarge the existing living space or create a seamless connection to the main level. Outdoor living is central to this property's appeal, with three levels of decks and patios designed for enjoying the lush, wooded surroundings. The custom dryscape front yard with slate, stone, and Japanese maples sets a modern tone, while the oversized side yard and expansive driveway offer rare privacy and space. Inside and out, every detail has been considered, from the custom mudroom with shoe closet and dog door to the modernized bathrooms throughout. Practical updates provide peace of mind, including a Tesla electric car charging station, a new roof installed in 2022, and a new multi-zone HVAC system added in 2021. With a two-car carport and abundant parking, the home balances style with convenience. Directly across the street lies the Lullwater Nature Preserve and Candler Lake at Emory, and just one block away is W. D. Thomson Park, offering more than 30 acres of trails, tennis courts, playgrounds, and pavilions. Emory University, the CDC, and Toco Hill Shopping Center are only minutes away, making this location as practical as it is picturesque. This is more than a home-it is a mid-century oasis designed for modern living, where privacy, style, and convenience come together in perfect balance.
