Nestled on a large lot on what is arguably the most coveted block in the heart of Peachtree Park, historic charm and modern conveniences intersect in this timeless brick bungalow. While significant renovations and additions have taken place over the years, considerable care has been taken to preserve the character while also recasting the property for the needs of today’s lifestyle. The result is a spacious and flexible floorplan offering a seamless blend of functionality and style spanning three finished levels. 3117 Peachtree Drive is sure to captivate you from the curb and wow you from the moment you step inside. A welcoming fireside family room opens to the heart of the home- a spacious, fully renovated, eat-in kitchen centered on a huge center island. The kitchen is a chef and entertainer’s dream featuring custom cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting and outlets, quartzite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a large picture window that affords awe-inspiring views of the private backyard and floods the kitchen with natural light. Adjacent to the kitchen, an enclosed porch complete with both screens and acrylic windows expands the everyday living space and connects to the original porch which has been transformed into a flexible, sun-lit retreat perfect for a home office, playroom or gym. Two generously sized bedrooms each with a walk-in closet and a full bathroom complete the main floor. Upstairs, the east side of the house is devoted entirely to the primary suite which exudes both comfort and elegance. The large bedroom features an impressive 14+ foot vaulted ceiling and a spacious walk-in closet. The luxurious all-marble bathroom includes an oversized walk-in shower, separate soaking tub, private water closet and an expansive double vanity with ample storage. Access to the second floor, full-size laundry room with built-in cabinetry is a unique and valuable convenience in a historic home. One of the two secondary bedrooms also features a vaulted ceiling and the well-designed hall bathroom including a double vanity and ability to separate the water closet keeps everyone happy. The finished basement adds yet another distinct dimension to this already exceptional home. A perfect balance of fun and functionality, the thoughtful renovation of the lower level yielded a bonus room, true bedroom and full bathroom as well a tremendous, waterproofed storage area, temperature-controlled wine cellar and mudroom/workshop with exterior access. Outside, a spacious back deck is the perfect spot for an alfresco meal or for simply enjoying the serene surroundings. An underdeck system creates covered parking for two cars. Whether you are young or young at heart, the custom treehouse fulfills childhood dreams and could even serve as a creative space for art or yoga. Embracing sustainability, solar panels and backup battery as well as foam insulation contribute to an eco-friendly and energy-efficient lifestyle. This meticulously designed and maintained home truly combines modern functionality with classic elegance, creating a special haven for the discerning homeowner in an incredible location. Ideally situated just blocks from Buckhead’s world-class shopping and dining, 5 star hotels and Fortune 500 office space but tucked away beneath a dense green tree canopy, Peachtree Park truly feels like an oasis in the city. Unique amenities like a pocket playground and neighborhood garden along with a multitude of activities planned by an active civic association serve to promote a strong sense of community and belonging. In addition, Peachtree Park has no cut-through access so the streets are often filled with residents who stop to greet one another. The neighborhood’s unique amenities like a pocket playground and neighborhood garden along with a multitude of activities planned by an active civic association serve to promote a strong sense of community and belonging.
