Property Description
Fireplaces, impressive oak doors and flooring, finished eaves, hand-crafted newel posts, steel casement windows and carved wood are just some of the historic architectural features that seamlessly blend with the home's clever renovations and additional space. With low-key charm and captivating curb appeal, 26 Clarendon doesn't shout. It's coolly confident, nailing the balance between timeless style and forever functionality.
From the covered porch to fireside foyer entry, you're in for a treat as you approach a true dining room set up. You don't want a formal space? Then style it with your record collection and a bad a** bar. Beyond the front rooms, the updated kitchen is the center of the home, complete with gas cooktop and breakfast bar. Open to the den, it creates flow for casual hosting and full-on parties. Don't miss the incredible ironwork railing as you check out the kitchen's covered side door entry by the dreamy bag drop and pantry.
The upstairs primary suite offers its own sitting room, perfect for a late-night wind-down or early morning reset. Overlooking the breathtaking backyard and offering deck expansion options, the serene owner's retreat features a marble bathroom with soaking tub, spacious shower, private water closet. Creamy colored walk-in closet shelving remains. A rare daylight lower-level gives you the ultimate in multi-gen living or potential income, including a second family room, au pair privacy, or great guest space. There's also an enormous laundry room and storage space.
A stone patio just beyond the lower level exterior entry is a perfect place to park your grill and follow the action on the flat, fenced backyard, ready for whatever you're into — gardening, ball games, and playdates on the playfort. Coveted, covered 2-car / golf cart parking adds a practical component you'll appreciate. Wooden privacy fencing in the backyard and the automatic driveway gate provide ease and convenience for fur friends, kids, cars and golf carts.
This lush small city location inside the Perimeter has been cultivated, curated and cared for by residents for more than a century. Tree-lined sidewalks and boulevards accommodate neighborly visits and provide magical access to parks, pavilions, pools, pickleball and playgrounds. When you're all played out or need to grab a gift for tomorrow's get together with your neighbor there's no need to go far. The Book Bird has got you covered. Or pick up some oh so special cinnamon rolls and olive oil muffins from Leftie Lee's. The Little Hippo, Santo, Arepa Mia and Savage also provide dine in or grab and go dishes, and your favorite craft beer and coffee is nearby at Olive + Pine and Banjo. MARTA can jet you to Emory, downtown Decatur, Midtown and the airport. Avondale Estates offers all the perks of city life - minus the chaos. For those of you who follow the market, historic homes of this caliber and location have rarely been offered for sale in recent years so this is your chance. Come and get it.
