Embodying the architectural brilliance of Mid-Century Modern design, this fully updated 1963 four-sided brick ranch masterfully blends authentic mid-century soul with contemporary luxury within the sought-after Lakeside High School footprint. Perfectly positioned for an exceptionally easy commute to Emory University and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), this move-in-ready residence honors defining mid-century modern hallmarks like a low-pitched asymmetrical roofline, expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that blur the line between indoors and out, and an honest use of natural materials. Situated on a large, gently sloping lot in the established Shenandoah Valley neighborhood, the property features a beautifully landscaped, wooded backyard with freshly laid sod and an elevated entertaining deck. Inside, the open-concept layout has been thoughtfully renovated to remove interior walls, creating a seamless, light-filled flow between the living, dining, and kitchen areas that showcases beautifully refinished hardwood floors and a central anchoring fireplace. The kitchen functions with a distinctly mid-century feel, combining modern white cabinetry, sleek stone countertops, premium stainless steel appliances, a ceramic tile backsplash, a deep undercounter sink with a gooseneck faucet, and durable tile flooring. Conveniently located off the kitchen, a spacious laundry room offers exceptional storage. Two doors from the main living area provide direct access to both the private backyard deck and a secure two-car garage equipped with an electric opener. The main-level bedroom wing features refinished hardwoods and two completely gutted and rebuilt bathrooms boasting mid-century warmth, custom vanities, new tile flooring, and premium finishes, including a tub-shower combination in the hall bath and a modern walk-in glass shower in the primary suite. Maximizing its footprint, the massive full daylight basement expands your living options significantly, featuring a fourth finished bedroom and a dedicated game room, alongside vast additional space perfectly suited for a home workshop, fitness studio, or a quiet, professional home office. Enhanced with a newer roof and a high-efficiency HVAC system for ultimate peace of mind. Nestled on a low-traffic cul-de-sac lot in one of Atlanta's most convenient neighborhoods, this exceptional four-sided brick single-family detached home offers low-maintenance living with a spacious layout tailored perfectly for professional families working at Emory University, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), CHOA, Mercer, the FBI, or the VA. Boasting a prime DeKalb County location with no city taxes and no HOA fees, this property provides swift access to both I-85 and I-285, placing top-tier employment centers, dining, shopping and services at Northlake and Embry Hills just minutes away. Students attend nearby Henderson Mill Elementary School and Henderson Middle School. Convenient to Lakeside HS, The GLOBE Academy, St. Pius X, and IHM School, as well as the nearby Mary Scott Nature Park and Henderson Park. Residents can also choose to join the optional Leslie Beach Club within easy walking distance, a hidden community treasure offering a vibrant swim and tennis membership with summer swim leagues, year-round ALTA teams for all ages, and numerous social functions.
