This charming bungalow is just 3 blocks from 5 points proper, and has all the charm of it's 1930's roots with all the form and function of a modern, livable home. Quintessentially 5 Points, it has all the enchanting accents that lovers of older homes crave like lead glass door knobs, skeleton keys, arched doorways, plaster walls and a slate front porch. These are coupled together with all the modern, energy efficient qualities that are practical and important in today's world (Trane HVAC-2017, Marvin double paned windows-2011, New Gutters-2016, Exterior Paint-2017, Roof-2004). You will love the Sunroom on the back which affords the most magical views of the lushly landscaped backyard lined with camellias and fig trees. Inside you will find so many striking accents and details like the library lined with bookcases and storybook slanted ceilings on the second floor. Don't miss the built-in grill in the back yard which dates back to the 1930's and is original to the property. There is a 2 car carport and a super fun "Party Pavilion" allowing for the most amazing entertaining opportunities. This home is the epitome of in-town living: it is close enough to walk to 5 Points for dinner or shopping, to hear the roar of the stadium on game-day, or to entertain neighbors and friends in the enticing indoor and outdoor spaces. It flows seamlessly from inside to outside and has a storybook quality that is rarely rivaled. One for the record books, this perfectly appointed, meticulously maintained, charismatic craftsman will not last. Easy to show on appointment.
