The ranch-style home at 3016 Sumac Drive in Atlanta, Georgia exudes an allure that is only possible when you modernize a classic. Just like a restored classic car that turns heads and garners envy, the traditional southern sophistication this home displays from the curb is dramatic.
In addition to design upgrades, this home has a new roof, beautiful new hardwood floors and is sporting fresh interior and exterior paint. The open floor plan allows for plenty of flexibility in how you use the rooms on both the main level and the full basement level.
Once inside, a large open space is anchored by the dining room at the far end. The remainder of the room could serve as a formal living room or as a family room. Similarly, in the rear portion of the home, is anchored by the kitchen on one end and a room on the other end that could serve as a family room, den or casual dining area. The kitchen also has room for a small table and chairs, allowing you to use the rest of this space as you wish.
This portion of the home is distinguished by the corner brick fireplace built into an interior wall in the center of the space. Also, a sliding glass door opposite the kitchen allows access to the newly constructed deck on the rear of the home. Protected from the sun’s rays by mature shade trees, the oversized deck extends far from the house and looks out into the magnificently wooded backyard. The yard is fully fenced, and privacy is provided by Mother Nature.
Design upgrades make their appearance in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen has received new custom cabinets and countertops, as well as upgraded plumbing and lighting fixtures. The master and second bathroom have received new cabinets with modern vanities and mirrors and tile showers and bathrooms.
The flexibility of this home reaches a crescendo in the full basement. Partially finished with lights, electricity and concrete flooring, the possibilities for how you can use this space are nearly endless.
The Lockridge Forest community, where this home is located, is a well-established neighborhood that provides optional club amenities to its residents. Homeowners have the option to use outdoor pavilions, lighted tennis courts, a play area and a Junior Olympic-sized swimming pool and clubhouse.
There are few examples of homes with the pedigree this one has that are also designed to allow for modern décor. The open, bright and “no rules” nature of this home allow you to choose a traditional layout, a non-traditional layout or an “anything goes” layout. Only your imagination knows what will lie behind the austere face of 3016 Sumac Drive in Atlanta, Georgia.
