181 Peachtree Battle Avenue NW

This elegant two-story brick home, circa 1928, has seen numerous meticulous renovations, additions, and upgrades, all the while retaining its original warmth, character, and charm. From the broad front porch, you enter the foyer, flanked by a fireside living room and a fireside "parlor." Ahead is the breakfast room and renovated kitchen, which opens to the patio and heated pool. From the breakfast room you enter the dining room and then the screened-in porch with limestone floor, beamed ceiling, wood-burning fireplace and peaceful views of the backyard and pool. The dining room leads through a butler's pantry to the sun-filled family room. Upstairs resides the spacious owner's suite with a sitting area, two walk-in closets, a luxurious bathroom with soaking tub, separate shower and dual pedestal sinks. In addition there are two second floor guest suites (one enjoys a sunny sitting room) with private baths. The third floor is finished and is currently being used as a delightful sleeping porch, with five matching twin beds, a queen bed in a separate alcove, and tons of closets and built-ins. This versatile space could function equally well as a children's playroom or teen suite, rec room or office. The almost acre grounds are manicured and professionally landscaped, and include a gated drive, patio, pool, and separate three-car garage/guest house. The guest house is richly appointed with a bedroom, living room, kitchenette, and full bath. Considering all that this special address has to offer, it is no wonder that, over these many years, a number of families have been happy to call this stylish residence HOME.
