2201 Abby Ln., Atlanta, GA 30345

Get ready to get inspired by this massive and wonderfully unique hardcoat stucco 5 bed, 5.5 bath home in the Oak Grove Elementary School district! Abby Lane is a gem of a street in a fantastic location close to Emory, CHOA, Echo Ridge (a swim/tennis recreational facility and social hub of the neighborhood), shops and restaurants, downtown Atlanta, and major highways. This unique, custom-built home is like nothing you have seen in this neighborhood: invoking European flair, it’s warm but open main floor is ready to host the masses, and the masses will delight in settling in to enjoy the vibe. It feels like a writer’s retreat. The front music room dwarfs a grand piano, and the entry foyer has space for the whole family to give welcoming hugs at the front door. An oversized powder room completes the space. The main floor guest room is private, deep, and its adjacent full bath is large. The kitchen island seats 6, and extra prep spaces put many hands to work at once. Step onto the rear patio to dine al fresco, while you reimagine the backyard water feature and plan for bringing it, and the little viewing bridge, back to glory. Settle in for an evening by the fire in the family room, invitingly open to the casual dining space and kitchen, and adjacent to the formal dining room. A large laundry room and sweeping bar area culminating in a home office space (the cleverest of designs for a great time in a work-from-home environment!) round out the first floor. The second floor is home to a primary suite that will gob smack you with its size including a second laundry room and balcony area. Two additional suites are also on this floor, each dramatically oversized, both with ensuite baths and large closets, and one with the largest of the charming balconies. The third floor has a great bonus room with a Juliet balcony, another enormous bedroom also with a Juliet balcony, oversized closet, and another large full bath. The terrace level has a two-car garage, and three extra storage spaces that open to the driveway. This home was cherished by its artist/collector owners, and was designed to support any style of décor, from modern to traditional. It absolutely soars under an eclectic eye. You will not believe how cozy such an enormous home can feel, nor how it can transport you to other lands like a novel. This house is a great read. Come write the next chapter.
