430 W Parkwood Road, Decatur, GA 30030

$835,000

Looking for a midcentury modern home featuring carefully retained original details blended with clever and thoughtfully designed modern updates? And you want a spacious lot, you say, in an unbeatable location? With desirable schools for the area and enough space and open flow for entertaining? Loads of natural light is… Read More a bonus? Stop right there...no, let's keep going, because the classic design of 430 W. Parkwood Road will WOW you the moment you approach the front door. Step in and you immediately feel all the happiness and warmth only a home gifted so much love can give. Enter the open living room and notice all the natural light pouring through the original windows. Set above the street, your views out the front windows resemble that of a treehouse; you are peering into the treetops of Parkwood Park, directly across the street. You begin to imagine hosting friends in this home; the chatter of conversations around the wood-burning fireplace; the gathering in the dining room to enjoy a delicious meal prepared in the adjacent kitchen. Fully equipped with Wolf appliances (including a warming drawer), a Sub-Zero refrigerator, feet of countertops, and cabinets you're challenged to fill, this groovy MCM kitchen is the envy of chefs and entertainers alike. So many attractive features and we haven't even gotten to the spacious 350sf sunroom. This may become your favorite room in the house! Your finicky plants will adore the south facing windows, but money is placed on you falling head over heels with the 180o views of the nature lover's backyard and outdoor entertainment spaces. But there's more. Camouflaged in the natural setting above are train tracks. Don't let the word 'train' fool you. Designated a quiet-zone, there is no horn blowing, no loud or fast locomotion. Just the slow and steady crawl of a train, sometimes synonymous with 'mobile art show' as the cars go past. It provides a unique character detail you didn't know you were missing. Wave to the conductor and he may just wave back! Just imagine a fall evening, cooler temps, and you're relaxing at the fire pit outside the gazebo as the train slowly moves along the tracks. It's like a movie setting! If the entertaining spaces of this home haven't completely captivated you, the living spaces sure might. The main level boasts three large bedrooms, each featuring a charming corner window, as well as two bathrooms, one being the primary ensuite. Both are immaculate and showcase true period detail. Each pays homage to their original details while proudly featuring modernized showers, seamlessly blending original and new. The ensuite fourth bedroom/third bath, laundry and oversized two-car attached garage are on the lower level. Located in historic Druid Hills and zoned to City of Decatur schools, this location in The Parkwoods has so much to offer: a short stroll to downtown Decatur dining, coffee and retail shops; a short 0.6 miles from Deepdene Park, a convenient entrance to the Olmsted Linear Park; close to Emory/CDC, and easy access to I-285, I-20 and midtown Atlanta.
