Located at 8540 Watkins Road in Chattahoochee Hills, Georgia, this charismatic home, built in 1977, is roughly 30 miles southwest of Atlanta. The front porch spans the length of the home and affords plenty of room for rocking chairs and porch swings. The serene front yard is decorated with a mix of foliage, soft grass and natural areas.
Just inside the front door, a vaulted ceiling sits high above the living room and meets the attractive brick fireplace at its peak. Elegant hardwood planks showcase natural wood grain, complemented by the exposed beams and wood paneling accents overhead.
The eat-in kitchen conveniently sits off the family room. Here, a breakfast nook is set within beadboard wainscoting. The kitchen features a decorative stainless steel range hood above decorative tile. Granite countertops and a tiled backsplash work together to create a modern-day feel. A cut-out window over the sink offers a gracious view of the sun room. The refrigerator is set back, while the other side of the kitchen is lined with ample counter space and cabinets, some of which are faced with decorative etched glass.
A large sun room, occupies the back space, boasts broad windows across the back wall that afford a panoramic view of the backyard. Dark tile floors and a wood-paneled ceiling fold together to make this room inviting and warm. An octagon sunlight with stained glass detail sits at the apex of the vaulted ceiling, further accentuating the charm of this home.
The master bedroom sits beneath a trey ceiling and features a bay window seat that adds volume to the room. Quaint barn doors open to the bathroom which presents a country-cottage theme with Victorian-style mirrors over dual sinks. Walls and cabinets feature wainscot treatment and give the room a stylish feel, while the neatly tiled steam shower sits behind full glass doors, reinventing a spa-style vibe. Adding to the room’s tranquil beauty is the wood-trimmed window that provides just the right amount of natural lighting.
The backyard is somewhat of a magical oasis. A sunny deck, complete with trellised seating in the corner and a white picket banister, is the perfect spot to enjoy the vast countryside. A grand grassy lawn lines the yard, while a thicket of greenery and age-old trees provide the landscape with privacy and shade. The vegetation that borders the exterior is impressive and an ideal for any avid gardener. The backyard softly slopes down and opens to the two +/- acres. A garden shed is also available for storage.
